Terms of Use
Thank you for visiting the Center for Disability Access website. We created this site so you can learn more about the legal services offered by our firm. The website is intended for informational purposes only. None of the information contained on this website is intended to constitute, nor does it constitute, either legal advice or a solicitation of any particular prospective client.
Our website is not intended to and does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and the Center for Disability Access. An attorney-client relationship cannot be formed with us by reading the information on this website. The only way to become our client is by specific and explicit agreement with an individual attorney at the Center for Disability Access. By providing information about our firm on this website, we are not soliciting clients, nor do we propose any type of transaction. You should not act or rely on any information contained on this website without seeking the advice of an attorney. The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise.
Any information that you send us in an e-mail message may not be confidential or privileged. Sending us an e-mail message will not make you a client of the Center for Disability Access. If you are interested in having us represent you, call us at (415) 534-1911; we will determine whether the matter is one for which we are willing or able to accept professional responsibility. We will not make this determination by e-mail communication. We reserve the right to decline any representation. We may be required to decline representation if it would create a conflict of interest with our other clients. You should therefore not provide us with any confidential information – whether by letter, e-mail or telephone – until after we have had an opportunity to determine whether representing you would create a conflict of interest with any of our other clients.
The Center for Disability Access has tried to comply with all legal and ethical requirements in compiling this website. We do not want to, and will not, represent clients based on their review of any portion of this website that does not comply with applicable legal or ethical requirements.
