5. Attorney-Client Relationship and Confidentiality

Submitting information through this website, completing an online form, scheduling an appointment, sending an email or text message, or otherwise contacting K. Deane Law LLC does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship.

An attorney-client relationship is established only after the Firm agrees to represent you and any required engagement agreement has been completed.

If an attorney-client relationship is established, information relating to the representation will be handled in accordance with the Firm's professional and ethical obligations concerning client confidentiality.

You should not submit highly sensitive or confidential information through unsecured website forms, text messages, or email unless instructed to do so by the Firm.

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, understand website usage, improve functionality, and evaluate our communications and marketing efforts. Your browser may allow you to restrict or disable cookies. Certain website functions may not operate properly if cookies are disabled.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no website, electronic communication, email system, text messaging system, or electronic storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
