Terms & Conditions

This site is owned and maintained by O’Connor and Associates (“O’Connor”).

The content on this site is offered to provide information about the services we offer to clients, the experience of our attorneys, as well as general information about legal events.

The content on this site does not constitute legal advice or legal opinions and should not be used as a substitute for obtaining legal advice from an attorney licensed or authorized to practice in your jurisdiction. The comments and opinions expressed on this site are of the individual author and may not reflect the opinions of the firm or any individual attorney. If you require legal advice, you should contact your attorney, discuss your matter and obtain matter specific advice with respect to any particular issue or problem.

If you are interested in retaining us, we are happy to provide you with information about our qualifications, experience, and our standard terms of engagement. You should understand, however, that neither the transmission of the information contained on this website nor the use of the information or communication with O’Connor creates an attorney-client relationship between you and O’Connor or any of its individual attorneys. O’Connor cannot agree to be retained as counsel until it reviews its internal database, determines that a conflict of interest does not exist, and a written engagement and fee agreement provided by our firm is signed by you and an authorized member of our firm. Therefore, DO NOT SEND US CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION until we have agreed to enter into an attorney-client relationship with you.

Some jurisdictions may have laws and regulations that differ substantially from one another. O’Connor does not, through this site, seek to represent anyone in a jurisdiction where this site may fail to comply with the laws and ethical rules of that jurisdiction.

Advertising/Unique Issues

The information contained on this website may be considered “attorney advertising” in some jurisdictions. The hiring of an attorney is an important decision, should not be entered into lightly, and should not be based solely on information obtained from an advertisement. Any discussion on this website of prior results in litigation, negotiations or otherwise is for illustrative purposes only and does not guarantee a similar outcome in your case or in any other matter. Each action is unique and our descriptions are not intended to promise future results. The outcome of your case may vary from that of any other representation undertaken by the firm.

Accuracy

This website does not provide legal advice of any kind. While we intend to make every attempt to keep the information on this site current, we cannot guarantee that the information is accurate, complete or up to date. You should not act upon information in this website without seeking professional counsel from an attorney admitted or authorized to practice in your jurisdiction.
