Disclaimer

1. Not a law firm; no legal advice

TheAdvocatePath.com is an attorney matching and advertising service. We are not a law firm, we do not employ attorneys, and we do not practice law. Nothing on this website (including practice-area descriptions, frequently asked questions, form guidance, emails or text messages) is legal advice or a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney about your specific situation. Laws differ by state and change over time; general information may not apply to you.

2. No attorney-client relationship

Using this website, submitting a request, or communicating with us does not create an attorney-client relationship with us or with any participating attorney. That relationship is formed only when you and an attorney sign a written engagement agreement. Until then, do not send confidential or privileged information you would not want disclosed, and do not include Social Security numbers or financial account numbers in any form.

3. Attorney advertising

This website may constitute attorney advertising under the rules of some states. Participating attorneys pay a marketing fee to receive inquiries generated by this website. We are not a lawyer referral service certified, endorsed or sponsored by any bar association or governmental agency, and we make no claim to be one.

4. Independent attorneys; no endorsement

Participating attorneys are independent professionals and are not our employees, agents or partners. We do not evaluate, rank or endorse the qualifications, experience, competence or results of any attorney, and we do not guarantee that any attorney will accept your matter or is the right choice for you. Verify any attorney's license and disciplinary history with your state's bar association or licensing authority before hiring.

5. No guarantee of results

We cannot and do not promise any outcome. Every legal matter depends on its own facts and applicable law. Prior results obtained by any attorney do not guarantee, warrant or predict a similar outcome in your matter.

6. Deadlines and time-sensitive matters

Legal claims are subject to statutes of limitation, notice requirements and other deadlines, some of which are very short. Submitting a request on this website does not stop any deadline, preserve any right or constitute notice to any party. If a deadline may apply to you, contact an attorney directly and immediately. In an emergency, call 911.

7. Accuracy of information

We work to keep the information on this website accurate and current, but we make no warranty about its completeness, accuracy or timeliness. Descriptions of practice areas are general examples, not statements about what any particular attorney handles or what the law is in your state.

8. Third-party links

Links to third-party websites, including attorney websites and bar associations, are provided for convenience. We do not control and are not responsible for their content, accuracy or privacy practices, and a link is not an endorsement.
