Terms and Conditions
Effective Date: July 6, 2026
Welcome to the website of Smith & Cook, LLC (“Smith & Cook,” “Firm,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of smithandcook.com and any pages, features, forms, payment links, content, or other online services made available through the website.
By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you should not use this website.
1. General Information Only
The information provided on this website is for general informational purposes only. It is intended to help visitors learn more about Smith & Cook, our attorneys, our practice areas, and general legal topics.
The content on this website is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as legal advice. Legal outcomes depend on specific facts, circumstances, deadlines, documents, applicable law, and other factors. You should consult with a qualified attorney about your specific situation before taking or failing to take any action.
2. No Attorney-Client Relationship
Your use of this website does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Smith & Cook, LLC, or any attorney associated with the Firm.
An attorney-client relationship is formed only after Smith & Cook has agreed in writing to represent you and any required engagement agreement, conflict check, fee arrangement, or other intake process has been completed.
Submitting a form, sending an email, calling the Firm, leaving a voicemail, making an online payment, or otherwise contacting Smith & Cook through this website does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship.
3. Do Not Send Confidential Information
You should not send confidential, sensitive, privileged, or time-sensitive information through this website, through an online form, or by email unless an attorney-client relationship has already been established and you have been instructed to do so.
Communications through the internet may not be secure. Information submitted before an attorney-client relationship is established may not be treated as confidential, privileged, or protected.
If your matter involves an upcoming court date, deadline, arrest, warrant, protective order, custody issue, criminal charge, juvenile matter, estate deadline, or other urgent legal issue, you should contact an attorney directly and promptly.
4. Practice Areas and Attorney Information
This website may describe certain practice areas, including but not limited to family law, criminal defense, juvenile law, estate planning, probate, and related legal services.
Descriptions of practice areas are provided for general information only. They do not guarantee that Smith & Cook will accept any particular matter or that any attorney-client relationship will be formed.
Attorney biographies, case descriptions, prior experience, credentials, and practice area information are provided for informational purposes only and should not be interpreted as a promise, guarantee, or prediction of any legal result.
5. No Guarantee of Results
Past outcomes, prior experience, testimonials, descriptions of legal services, or general statements on this website do not guarantee or predict future results.
Every legal matter is different. The outcome of any case or legal issue depends on the facts, applicable law, evidence, court procedures, opposing parties, judicial decisions, and other circumstances beyond the Firm’s control.
6. Attorney Advertising
This website may be considered attorney advertising under applicable rules of professional conduct. The hiring of an attorney is an important decision that should not be based solely on website content, advertisements, or online materials.
7. Online Payments
This website may provide a link or option to make payments online. Online payment functionality is provided for convenience only.
Making a payment through the website does not create an attorney-client relationship unless Smith & Cook has separately agreed in writing to represent you.
Payments are subject to the terms of any applicable engagement agreement, fee agreement, invoice, payment processor terms, and Firm policies. Unless otherwise stated in writing, payment of an invoice does not modify the terms of any engagement agreement.
Smith & Cook may use third-party vendors or payment processors to process online payments. We are not responsible for the actions, errors, policies, security practices, or terms of third-party payment processors.
