By accessing and using a Website, you are indicating your acceptance of, and agreement to be legally bound by, this Agreement. If you do not accept this Agreement, you must not access or use any Website.
Bune Law may revise this Agreement at any time by updating this posting. Use of a Website after such changes are posted will signify your acceptance of these revised terms. You should visit this page periodically to review this Agreement. We will indicate at the top of this page the date this Agreement was last revised.
Not Legal Advice
Information made available on the Website in any form is for general information and educational purposes only. It is not and should never be taken as legal advice and/or any other form of professional advice or opinion of any kind whatsoever. You should not rely on, or take or fail to take any action, based upon this information. Never disregard professional legal advice or delay in seeking legal advice because of something you have read on the Website. Bune Law will be pleased to discuss resolutions to specific legal concerns you may have.
No Lawyer-Client Relationship
The presentation of information on the Website, or your use of or reliance upon such information, does not establish a lawyer-client relationship between you and Bune Law or between you, and any Bune Law professional. Please also note that any information sent or received over the internet may not be secure. Bune Law cannot guarantee the security or privacy of any communication (in any form) to the Website.
Until and unless Bune Law agrees to be retained, we are not your lawyer and we cannot provide you with legal advice or legal opinion of any kind, nor can we undertake any legal work on your behalf. Do not send any information that is confidential, privileged, or sensitive, as none of the information provided will be considered confidential until and unless we have agreed to establish a lawyer-client relationship. There are various requirements in order to form a lawyer-client relationship, including the Firm determining whether any conflicts of interest exist, agreeing to the specific terms and conditions of an engagement, and you counter-signing a retainer agreement provided to you by this Firm that is first signed by a lawyer at this firm. There are no representations or warranties made as to the accuracy or substantive adequacy of any information provided in this website. Legislative changes and changes to the interpretation of existing laws necessitate legal advice. For information particular to your specific situation, you should seek legal advice from a qualified lawyer in your jurisdiction. No steps or action with regards to your particular circumstances should be taken until you have obtained legal advice. Reviewing this website should not be viewed as having sought professional advice, but rather as obtaining general information which should not be relied upon.
