Expanded Disclaimer

The materials on this site are provided for informational purposes only, do not constitute legal advice, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the firm or any of its attorneys, clients or other entities referenced within the site, and are not guaranteed to be complete, comprehensive, correct, or up-to-date.

This site is not intended to create, and review of it does not create or constitute, an attorney-client relationship between you and the firm or any of its attorneys. You should not act or rely on any information in this site without seeking the advice of an attorney licensed in your state.

We would be pleased to communicate with you concerning legal matters. However, if you communicate with us through this site, by e-mail or otherwise concerning a legal matter for which we do not already represent you, your communication may not be treated as privileged or confidential and may not be deemed to create an attorney-client relationship.

If you are interested in having the firm represent you in a legal matter, the best way to initiate possible representation is to communicate with one of the contact attorneys listed in the appropriate practice area section of the site. That attorney will arrange to have you go through our conflict of interest procedures and, following that, will put you directly in touch with the attorney best suited to handle your matter. Please do not send us any confidential information until after you have received from us a written statement that we represent you in your matter.

Communications regarding matters for which we do represent you should be made with caution, as Internet e-mail is not necessarily secure. You should avoid sending sensitive or confidential information via e-mail unless they are adequately encrypted. Encryption protocols supported by the firm are available upon request to clients that desire them for especially sensitive communications. Please contact the attorney handling your matter for more information.

In some jurisdictions this site may be considered advertising. Hiring a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon written information about the qualifications and experience of the firm and its attorneys. The firm has endeavored to comply with all known legal and ethical requirements in compiling this site. The firm does not intend to represent clients based upon their review of any portions of this site that do not comply with legal or ethical requirements in your jurisdiction.

This site contains links to other web sites and resources on the Internet. Those links are provided as aids to help you identify and locate other Internet resources that may be of interest and are not intended to state or imply that we sponsor, are affiliated with or are associated with the entities or individuals that are reflected in the links. Inclusion of a link on the site is not intended to state or imply that the firm is legally authorized to use any trade name, registered trade mark, logo, legal or official seal or copyrighted symbol that may be reflected in the link.

Nothing contained in this web site is intended to compare our services to the services of any other firm or lawyer or to imply specialization or certification by any organization not previously approved by the Alabama State Bar Board of Legal Specialization. Unless specifically noted, the attorneys are not Board Certified in the areas of law in which they practice.

Past results are not an indication of future results. Each case must be evaluated on its own facts and circumstances as they apply to the law. The valuation of a case depends on the facts, the injuries, the jurisdiction, the venue, the witnesses, the parties, the testimony, and other factors.

The following language is required by the Alabama Rules of Professional Conduct: No representation is made that the quality of legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.

To the extent the State Bar Rules of a jurisdiction require us to designate a principal office and/or a single attorney responsible for this site, the firm designates its office in Birmingham, Alabama as its principal office and designates Melody Eagan as the attorney responsible for this site.
