  1. Website Purpose

This website is provided for general informational purposes only. It is intended to give visitors general information about the firm, its attorneys, its practice areas, and related legal topics. Nothing on this website is legal advice, and nothing on this website is a substitute for obtaining legal advice from a qualified attorney about your specific circumstances.

  1. No Attorney-Client Relationship

Your use of this website does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Erkan & Sullivan, PC. Sending a message through this website, submitting an intake form, sending an email, sending a text message, leaving a voicemail, or requesting a consultation does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship.

An attorney-client relationship is formed only after the firm has completed any necessary conflict review, agreed to undertake the representation, and a written engagement agreement has been signed.

  1. No Confidential or Sensitive Information Through the Website

Do not send confidential, privileged, time-sensitive, or sensitive personal information through this website, through any contact form, by unencrypted email, by text message, or by voicemail unless and until the firm has agreed to represent you and has instructed you to do so through an approved channel.

Communications sent through website forms or ordinary email may not be secure. By submitting information through the website, you understand and accept that those communications may not be encrypted.

The legal information on this website is general in nature. It may not reflect the most current legal developments. Laws change. Court decisions change. Procedures change. Content that was accurate when posted may later become incomplete or outdated.

Past results, case results, testimonials, endorsements, attorney recognition, and descriptions of prior matters do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future case. Every case is different and depends on its own facts, law, procedure, and timing.
