AGREEMENT FOR USERS

Attorneys America starts every User relationship with an Agreement, which explains Attorneys America's, and User's rights, protections, privileges and liabilities.

In order to meet all your expectations and avoid confusion and miscommunication, it is necessary to go over the Agreement with our Users in advance. If you have any questions about any part of the Agreement, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be glad to explain why the terms in this Agreement are important for our Service. Please understand, that to gain full access to our Service you must enter into a formal Agreement with Attorneys America.

II. NATURE OF ASSOCIATION BETWEEN USER AND ATTORNEYS AMERICA: PROVIDING ONLY A FORUM

Attorneys America is a Web Site Service (hereinafter "Service"), that provides an open market forum for providers and purchasers of legal services to contact each other in an effort to form a professional relationship. Attorneys America does not guarantee that User will fruitfully find an attorney through this Service. Further, Attorneys America takes no position and makes no determination on when or if an attorney-client relationship has been formed.

To provide an ideal forum for attorneys and clients, Attorneys America does not involve itself in the agreements and relationships between attorneys and clients. Accordingly, Attorneys America does not guarantee that the parties will enter into an agreement nor do we guarantee the integrity of either party. The User alone, and not Attorneys America, is responsible for assessing the integrity and honesty of all attorneys or any other person with whom the User contacts through the Service.

III. GUIDELINES FOR USERS

In order to provide our Users with a functional and agreeable Service, it is important that all Users follow the rules of the Service. Some of these rules will be described in this agreement, and the rest in bulletins posted at various times on the Service. Attorneys America reserves the right to deny further access to the Service to any User for any reason, or no reason at all, including but not limited to denial of access because of breaches of Attorneys America's rules or actions causing complaints by other Users or subscribing attorneys.

Users may not engage in any of the following activities on or through the Service:

V. DISCLAIMER OF INFORMATION OBTAINED THROUGH THE SERVICE

Attorneys America is not responsible for the nature of materials broadcast through the Service. The views expressed and determinations made are those of the Users or subscribing attorneys and do not reflect those of Attorneys America. Any data posted by any User, subscribing attorneys or other persons, is not verified for accuracy or monitored prior to its posting on the Service. Attorneys America does not warrant the validity or accuracy of any such information. As such all persons must use prudence and common sense when utilizing the Service.

Attorneys America makes every effort to verify that subscribing attorneys are licensed and in good standing in at least one state within the United States at the time of registration. Attorneys America, however, does not continuously review the standing of any attorney subscriber with any regulatory authority. When considering retaining any attorney or law firm, Users are advised to verify any attorney's or their law firm's standing with the applicable regulatory body. Attorneys America makes no representation regarding the status, standing, or capabilities of any subscribing attorney, Users, or third parties, on or off this Web site.

User is urged to make an independent investigation and evaluation of any attorney or law firm they consider retaining. Choosing an attorney to provide legal services is an extremely important decision and should not be based solely on advertisements, claims of expertise, or on the cost of rendering the requested legal services.

Attorneys America is not responsible for, and in no way endorses or promotes, any claim of specialization or limitation of practice by a subscribing attorney. Please be aware that any claim of specialization or expertise in a particular area of law, by a subscribing attorney, may not be certified by any agency or board. It is up to the User and in the User's best interest to question the attorneys on the factual basis of any statement they make, ask for the names of the certifying agencies, and confirm all data.

User is encouraged to use prudence when reviewing any information submitted by subscribing attorneys or any other parties. Although Attorneys America strongly encourages attorneys to comply with all regulations governing attorney professional conduct, it is impossible for Attorneys America to ensure that subscribing attorneys' abide by the applicable rules of professional conduct.

VI. CONFIDENTIALITY

Attorneys America makes every attempt to preserve the confidentiality of any data submitted by Users to the Service and our database of subscribing attorneys. However, we cannot guarantee that this information will remain confidential, as third parties, beyond Attorneys America's control may disseminate Users data. Please use caution in deciding what information to submit to the Service. Do not make any confessions or admissions, which may later be used against you and your interests. Do not use proper names or addresses. Do not provide any other highly personal, sensitive, or incriminating information. Attorneys America is not liable for the discharge or improper use of such information by other parties or any discharge of information due to an error or failure in the Service.

User further agrees that this defense and indemnity shall include without limitation actual attorney fees and costs.
