Welcome to AvasantLaw.com (the “Site”). This Site is operated by Avasant Law, LLP (“Avasant Law”). Please read these Terms of Use carefully before using this Site. By using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. Avasant Law reserves the right to modify these Terms of Use at any time by posting modified Terms of Use, and your continued use of the Site thereafter will constitute agreement with such modifications.

No Attorney Client Relationship

Transmission of the information in Avasant Law’s web site is not intended to create, and receipt does not constitute, an attorney-client relationship. Newsletter recipients and online readers should not rely upon the transmission of an e-mail message to Avasant Law through this web site to create an attorney-client relationship. Internet subscribers and online readers should not act upon any information in this web site without first consulting legal counsel of their own directly. The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Before selection of counsel, users should ask a prospective attorney or law firm to send free written information about their qualifications and experience. The information in this web site is not provided in the course of an attorney-client relationship and is not intended to constitute legal advice or to substitute for obtaining legal advice from an attorney licensed in the appropriate jurisdiction.

Compliance

Avasant Law is unwilling to assume the representation of clients from those states where the marketing material does not comply with State Bar requirements and where the client is generated as a result of that communication. No representation is made or intended that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers. In situations in which our fees are contingent or partially contingent on the outcome of the case or transaction, the client is obligated for payment of court costs and expenses regardless of outcome.
