No attorney-client relationship is created by accessing this website (or any of our related websites to which you may be referred by this website). You are free to contact us by e-mail, telephone, fax, regular mail or in person, if you so desire, but please be aware that we will first conduct a conflict check before giving consideration to accepting you as a new client. Moreover, if we do accept you as a new client, it will only be pursuant to a written retainer agreement executed by both parties. In the absence of a written retainer agreement, any information we provide to you in response to an inquiry or otherwise should not be considered legal advice and you should not rely on it as if it were.

We have well over a thousand pages of legal information at this web site. We hope that you find the information useful. However, if you have a legal issue which is important to you, these pages are no substitute for competent legal advice. Please read our disclaimer.
