Legal Disclaimer

1. General Information Only

The content on this website, including all articles, blog posts, case studies, FAQs, and other materials, is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. This information is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal advice for any specific situation or individual.

Legal advice depends on the specific facts and circumstances of each situation. Only an attorney who has been retained to represent you and has reviewed your specific facts can provide legal advice tailored to your circumstances.

2. No Attorney-Client Relationship Created

Use of this website and communication with Jacobs Counsel Law through this website or by email, phone, or other means does not establish an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship can only be formed through:

• A written engagement agreement signed by both parties
• Mutual agreement to the scope and terms of representation
• Confirmation that no conflicts of interest exist
• Payment of agreed-upon fees or retainer

Until an attorney-client relationship is formally established in writing, Jacobs Counsel Law has no duty to act on your behalf or to protect your interests.

3. No Confidentiality Without Representation

Communications sent to Jacobs Counsel Law before an attorney-client relationship is established may not be treated as confidential. Do not send us sensitive, confidential, or privileged information unless we have agreed in writing to represent you and confirmed that we can accept such information.

Attorney-client privilege protects only communications made in the course of seeking or receiving legal advice from a lawyer who represents you. Without an established attorney-client relationship, this privilege may not apply.

4. No Guarantee of Results

Case results, testimonials, and examples described on this website are specific to the facts of those particular cases and should not be interpreted as a promise or guarantee of similar results in other matters. Every case is different, and outcomes depend on unique facts, applicable law, jurisdiction, and numerous other factors beyond anyone's control.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. No attorney can guarantee a specific outcome in any legal matter.

5. Accuracy and Currency of Information

While we make reasonable efforts to provide accurate and current information, laws and regulations change frequently, and legal information can quickly become outdated. We make no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any content on this website.

Do not rely on information from this website as a substitute for professional legal advice. Always consult with a qualified attorney about your specific legal situation.

6. Jurisdictional Limitations

Jacobs Counsel Law is authorized to practice law only in the jurisdictions where its attorneys are licensed (currently New York, New Jersey, and Ohio). Legal information on this website may not be applicable in your jurisdiction, and laws vary significantly from state to state and country to country.

If you are located in a jurisdiction where we are not licensed to practice, we may be able to associate with local counsel or refer you to qualified attorneys in your area. However, viewing this website does not constitute a solicitation to provide legal services in jurisdictions where doing so would violate professional ethics rules.

7. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, JACOBS COUNSEL LAW DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM:

• Use of or reliance on information contained on this website
• Inability to access this website or any linked sites
• Errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in website content
• Any action taken or not taken based on information from this website
• Delays in responding to inquiries or communications

8. Third-Party Content and Links

This website may contain links to third-party websites, articles, resources, or content for convenience and informational purposes. Jacobs Counsel Law does not endorse, control, or assume responsibility for third-party content, and we make no representations about the accuracy, reliability, or legality of information found on external sites.

Links to third-party sites are provided as a courtesy and do not constitute our endorsement of any organization, product, service, or viewpoint. Your use of third-party websites is at your own risk.

9. Time-Sensitive Legal Matters

Legal matters often have strict deadlines, and failure to act promptly can result in loss of rights or adverse legal consequences. Do not delay in seeking legal advice because of something you read on this website. If you have a time-sensitive legal issue, contact an attorney immediately rather than relying on this website or email communication.

Jacobs Counsel Law is not responsible for any harm resulting from delays in communication or failure to meet legal deadlines.

10. No Duty to Act

Unless and until you become a client of Jacobs Counsel Law through a signed engagement agreement, we have no duty to monitor legal deadlines on your behalf, to advise you of changes in the law affecting your interests, or to take any action to protect your legal rights.

11. Professional Responsibility

Jacobs Counsel Law and its attorneys are subject to the rules of professional conduct in the jurisdictions where they are licensed to practice. These rules govern attorney conduct, confidentiality, conflicts of interest, and other ethical obligations. We take our professional responsibilities seriously and conduct our practice in accordance with all applicable ethical rules.
