Find Pros:
Throughout the Site, the Company offers a service to assist you in finding legal professionals. By using such service, you accept the following terms:
-
After you insert your name, zip code, telephone number, email address and any other information, the Company will attempt to match you with a local service professional (the “Attorney”) who might wish to perform work that you need. However, the Company does not guarantee that it will locate an Attorney who is able or disposed to provide services that match your needs. Company does not make any representations or provide any guarantees for any Attorneys’ skills, representations or quality of work that may be performed by any Attorney.
-
While the Company’s goal is to assist you in locating an Attorney, the Company is not responsible for any of the services requested by you or the work performed on your behalf by any Attorney. The Company does not recommend or sanction any particular Attorney, as the Company is not a party to your independent agreement with an Attorney. The Attorneys are not employees or agents of the Company and the Company is not an agent of the Attorneys.
-
Any agreement you enter into with an Attorney is governed solely by the terms of your agreement and by applicable federal, state or local law. In the event that you have a dispute with an Attorney, that dispute must be addressed directly with the Attorney and you agree to release the Company and its officers, directors, affiliates, employees and agents as well as any other person, firm or entity including the Company’s business partners, which may include Attorneys, from any damages or claims of every kind arising out of or related to your agreement and/or dealings with an Attorney.
-
You agree and acknowledge that you will be liable and/or indemnify the Company and any Attorney from any damages, attorney fees, costs and expenses including any regulatory or judicial fines that may be incurred in the event that you knowingly falsify information submitted to the website.
-
You understand and acknowledge that the Company does not guarantee that it will pre-screen Attorneys and the Company makes no, and expressly disclaims any guarantees, representations or warranties whatsoever with regard to these Attorneys. The Attorneys are provided to you on an “as is” basis. Please confirm that the Attorney your dealing with is licensed, if necessary, and insured and you need to perform any investigation into references and background as you determine is needed.
In the event the Company is unable to match you with an Attorney, the Company reserves the right to convey your request for services and profile information to a third party. In that event you may be subject to the terms and conditions of that particular third party. -
We respect your privacy and want to make sure you are aware of our TCPA consent. By submitting your information you authorize Company or its partners to send you automated calls from legal companies that can help you with your request to the land-line or mobile phone number you provided, and you understand that they may use automated phone technology to call you and that your consent is not required to purchase products or services.
