  1. Use of “Ask C.L.” and providing Legal Insight – ChiropracticLaw.com provides a unique platform by which chiropractors and other users can obtain general information, insights, and suggestions from the websites contributors. One or more website contributors can respond to questions, problems, and situations which may or may not be of a legal or quasi legal nature. This site offers two (2) different “levels” of interaction between the contributor and user submitting an inquiry. The user initially chooses the extent of interaction depending upon (1) whether a response of a general nature is requested which is not specifically directed to a particular person(s) and/or particular set of facts or (2) whether an opinion of a professional nature, can be provided – including anticipated cost of a response to a particular set of facts or circumstances.

 

  1. “Option One” – No formation of an attorney-client relationship

 

It is expressly understood and agreed by the user that the submission of a question at the first option of “Ask C.L.” and interaction with a contributor is for the purpose of obtaining general information or insight on commonly accepted principles, practices, or procedures. In such situation, any and all information obtained from the contributor is not intended to constitute legal advice, recommendations, or legal counseling under any circumstances. In addition, the website makes no representation, guarantee, or warranty (expressed or implied) as to the legal quality, competence, professional qualifications, or quality of information which may be provided by any of the attorney or non-attorney contributors of this website who a user interacts with through “Ask C.L.” The user is expressly informed that any form of advice provided should be regarded as limited or general in nature. User understands that the website may be (1) unable to address a general question and/or (2) have the right to regard the question as not constituting a general question. In such case, the user may be refused a response and/or referred to option two (2) for information on an attorney-client relationship to address a more specific inquiry.

 

To further underscore the fact that no legal advice is intended to be provided to a user through the general use of “Ask C.L.”, any individual submitting an inquiry must understand that all or part of both the inquiry and response may be disclosed to other users of “Ask C.L.” or generally displayed or otherwise inserted in the resources available at this website. As such, any party submitting an inquiry should utilize non-specific information which cannot be reasonably utilized so as to ascertain the specific identity or specific legal needs of an individual user. Any contributor responding to an inquiry may refer the user to other individuals, entities, or third party sources of information which a contributor believes, in his or her own discretion, may be able to provide further insight to the user of “Ask C.L.”. In such situations, neither the contributor nor this website or its hosting firm should be regarded as any type of referral network or co-counsel with such individual, entity, or third party source. The user of “Ask C.L.” specifically understands and acknowledges that any question or inquiry and the response to such matter or other postings on this website should not be regarded as confidential in nature and otherwise subject to any form of attorney-client privilege.

 

  1. “Option Two” – Obtaining information on establishing an attorney-client relationship

As an alternative to obtaining general information, a user may submit a question containing greater or more specific details which may necessitate a more specific response or answer. In such case, an attorney-client relationship may need to be established and a contributor(s) from this website will provide a response (1) indicating whether the matter can be addressed (2) prospective cost and/time needed to address such matter and (3) direction on how an attorney-client relationship can be established.

Even though Chiropractic Law may process the exchange of information of a user, no attorney-client relationship is formed with ChiropracticLaw, or the host of ChiropracticLaw. Use of “Ask C.L.” should not be a substitute for an in-person or telephonic consultation with a lawyer about the user’s specific legal issue or concern and the user should not rely upon the general information provided by a contributor at this website as constituting any legal information or advice. A user further understands and agrees that Chiropractic Law and its host cannot be held responsible for the quality or accuracy of any information provided in response to the general inquiry by any contributor and that any contributor that may eventually establish an attorney-client relationship with a user is acting independently as a licensed professional.

 

  1. Procedure at “Ask C.L.”

In responding to an inquiry, this website will generally use the following procedure:

  1. Website will choose one or more contributors to respond to an inquiry. The choice of such contributors is made at the exclusive discretion of the website.
  2. The user will be advised via e-mail, within three (3) business days of the contributor(s) selected to address the inquiry or the websites inability to provide a response.
  • Within twenty four (24) hours of such notification of the selected contributor(s), a user may notify the website by telephone or e-mail of the user’s decision not to proceed in seeking a response from the selected contributor(s). Should such notice be provided by a user, no response to the inquiry will be provided. Failure of a user to timely provide such notification entitles the contributor(s) to proceed with a response to the inquiry.
  1. With regard to general, “Option One” questions, the chosen contributor(s) will provide a response, via e-mail, generally within seven (7) business days of the initial inquiry.
  2. With regard to “Option Two” inquiries, any website contributor who may be able to provide legal assistance will respond to the inquiry on their own and in such manner, as determined by them.
