Welcome message and site overview • This is an advertisement • Notices and disclaimers
"I once saw a disclaimer that said: 'DISCLAIMER: I take no interest in reading long-winded disclaimers.' Anyone who has visited many law firm sites appreciates the humor of that disclaimer. In my opinion, however, an appropriate set of disclaimers is a positive indicator that a firm can be expected to handle a client's matter in a lawyerly manner. After all, if a firm is not careful about protecting itself, what does that indicate about how carefully it will protect a client? The Internet is a wonderful thing, but it has also raised its own set of issues for the field of legal ethics. Lawyers and law firms are well-advised to think through those issues before launching websites, and to take appropriate precautions." | Notices and disclaimers This site is an advertisement for legal services in Kentucky, but not in any other state The Supreme Court of Kentucky regulates the advertisement of legal services in the Commonwealth.
