Disclaimer | CommLawBlog | Fletcher, Heald & Hildreth, PLC

In general: This website is neither legal advice nor advertising. It does not create or extend an attorney-client relationship, and it does not solicit the representation of entities that have counsel in our areas of expertise. Information posted here may omit or incompletely explain details that are important in a particular situation, and may have been superseded by later events. Do not act (or refrain from acting) based on the contents of this website. Consult an attorney for individual advice on your own situation.

When you contact us: Do not give us confidential information before we have exchanged paperwork that establishes an attorney-client relationship. We cannot assure you of confidentiality until then. Email or other correspondence or telephone calls between us do not, in themselves, establish an attorney-client relationship. If your matter is time-critical, we urge you to contact us by telephone (not fax or email) during U.S. East Coast business hours.

We may decline representation: Sometimes we must — for example, if taking on your matter would create a conflict of interest with an existing client. Occasionally we decline representation for other reasons. In any of these cases, we can help you to find another lawyer.

Referrals: If we recommend another lawyer or law firm, we do so because, to the best of our knowledge, that individual or firm is respected in the legal community and is qualified to handle your matter. Our recommendation is not a warranty of that lawyer’s or firm’s qualifications or performance.

Links: You are welcome to link to our site. Links from this site to other sites are provided for users’ convenience. We cannot take responsibility for anything on those sites.

Cases: We participated in some of the cases reported on the site. The results of each case depend on a variety of factors unique to that case. Past outcomes do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any future cases we undertake.
