Information submitted through a website form is transmitted to the firm and may be retained in the firm’s email systems, business records, and other systems used to respond to the inquiry.

We may use website-hosting, email-delivery, information-technology, and security providers to operate the website and deliver contact-form submissions. These providers may process information on our behalf as necessary to perform their services.


Cookies and Similar Technologies

The website does not currently use Google Analytics, advertising pixels, session-recording software, or similar behavioral advertising tools.

The website may nevertheless use cookies or similar technologies that are necessary for website security, spam prevention, and proper operation.


Google reCAPTCHA

Our contact forms use Google Invisible reCAPTCHA v2 to help distinguish legitimate visitors from automated submissions and protect the website from spam and abuse.

When pages containing a protected form are loaded or when reCAPTCHA is executed, the visitor’s browser may connect to Google domains, including google.com and gstatic.com. Google may receive technical information and may set a necessary reCAPTCHA cookie for security and risk-analysis purposes.

Use of reCAPTCHA is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and Google Terms of Service.


Google Fonts

The website currently uses fonts delivered through the Google Fonts service. When your browser requests these fonts, it connects to Google servers. Google may receive technical request information such as your Internet Protocol address, the requested website address, browser information, and referring-page information.

Google states that the Google Fonts API does not set or log cookies.


Embedded Content and External Links

The website may contain links to third-party websites, including links that open directions or other services provided by Google.

When you click an external link, you leave this website, and the third party’s privacy practices apply. We are not responsible for the privacy, security, or content practices of third-party websites.

Retention periods may differ depending on the nature of the inquiry and whether an attorney-client relationship is established.


Information Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information collected through the website. However, no website, email system, or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Do not use the contact form to send Social Security numbers, financial-account information, medical records, confidential documents, or other highly sensitive information unless the firm has specifically instructed you to do so through an approved secure method.

Depending on where you reside, you may have rights concerning your personal information, such as the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain information.
