These Terms of Use govern access to ExploreLawyers.com. By using the site, you agree to use it lawfully and to understand the limits described below.
Directory and information service
ExploreLawyers provides lawyer-directory information, legal-market information and general educational/editorial content. ExploreLawyers is not a law firm, does not represent users, and does not provide individualized legal advice. Use of the site does not create an attorney-client relationship with ExploreLawyers or with any lawyer whose profile appears here.
No endorsement or guarantee
A listing, profile, rating, review, statistic, article, ordering or appearance on ExploreLawyers is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee of a lawyer, law firm, service, result or suitability for a particular matter. Users are responsible for independently evaluating a lawyer and, where appropriate, verifying license status and disciplinary or professional information with the relevant licensing authority.
Accuracy and timeliness
Information is provided from sources and records available to us and may be incomplete, delayed, incorrect or outdated. Contact details, addresses, websites, practice descriptions, employment relationships, licensing information and other profile fields can change without notice. Legal content and statistical information can also become outdated as law, procedure and source data change.
Communications and forms
Submitting a form, clicking a contact control, using an email link, or attempting to contact a lawyer through any ExploreLawyers-assisted channel does not guarantee that the message will be delivered, read or answered. Technical failures, spam filtering, outdated contact details or third-party systems can prevent delivery.
Do not rely on ExploreLawyers for an urgent filing, statute-of-limitations issue, court deadline, emergency or other time-sensitive legal matter. If you need to reach a lawyer, contact that lawyer directly using contact information you independently verify. Do not send confidential, privileged or highly sensitive information until you have confirmed how the intended lawyer wants to receive it and whether an attorney-client relationship exists.
Third-party services and links
ExploreLawyers may link to lawyer websites, government resources, courts, agencies or other third parties. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their availability, security, content, privacy practices or actions.
Permitted use
You may use the site for lawful personal or professional research. You may not interfere with the service, attempt unauthorized access, misuse forms or rating systems, submit unlawful content, impersonate another person, or use automated activity in a way that materially burdens or disrupts the site.
Intellectual property
The ExploreLawyers name, site design, original editorial material, software and other original site elements are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. Third-party names, profile information, trademarks and linked materials remain subject to the rights of their respective owners.
Service provided “as is”
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the site and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, complete, current or suitable for a particular legal need.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, ExploreLawyers and its operators will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or similar losses arising from reliance on site content, inability to use the service, failed communications, third-party conduct or decisions made using directory information. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so these provisions apply only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Changes and applicable rights
We may modify the service and these Terms as the project evolves. Mandatory consumer protections or other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded remain unaffected.
