Website Disclaimer

This disclaimer applies to the entire website located at https://chichyanlaw.com (the “Website”) operated by Chichyan Law APC (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “the Firm”). By accessing or using this Website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this Disclaimer. If you do not agree with any part of this Disclaimer, you should immediately discontinue use of this Website.

1. No Attorney-Client Relationship

1.1 Website Use Does Not Create Representation

The transmission, receipt, or use of this Website, in whole or in part, and/or communication with Chichyan Law APC or any of its attorneys via Internet email through this Website does not constitute or create an attorney-client relationship between you and the Firm.
An attorney-client relationship is only established when:

• You and the Firm have executed a written engagement agreement or retainer agreement
• The Firm has explicitly agreed in writing to represent you in a specific legal matter
• The Firm has conducted a conflicts check and confirmed its ability to represent you
• All required intake procedures have been completed

1.2 No Confidentiality Without Representation

You should not send us any confidential information until an attorney-client relationship has been formally established. Any information you submit to us through this Website, including via contact forms, email, or other means, before we have agreed to represent you:

• Will not be treated as confidential or privileged
• May not be protected by attorney-client privilege
• Could potentially be disclosed to third parties
• May be subject to conflicts of interest that prevent our representation
• May be reviewed by staff members who are not attorneys

If you provide confidential information before representation is established, such disclosure will not prevent the Firm from representing another client in a matter adverse to you, even if the matter involves the same facts or information you disclosed.

1.3 Consultation Required

To establish an attorney-client relationship, you must schedule and complete an initial consultation with an attorney at Chichyan Law APC. During this consultation, we will:

• Evaluate your potential case
• Discuss our ability to represent you
• Identify any potential conflicts of interest
• Explain our fee structure and engagement terms
• Determine whether our services are appropriate for your legal needs
