Terms of Use

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the website located at https://goro.law/, including any related pages, forms, scheduling tools, intake questionnaires, client-intake workflows, communications, content, or features made available through or in connection with the website, including tools operated by or integrated with third-party legal technology providers such as Clio. The website and related features are referred to in these Terms of Use as the "Site." The Site is owned and operated by Gonzalez & Rothchild LLP ("Gonzalez & Rothchild," the "Firm," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, you should not use the Site. Please also review the Firm's Privacy Policy, Notice of Privacy Practices, and Third-Party Vendor List, as applicable.

Informational Purposes Only

The Site is provided for general informational purposes only. Nothing on the Site constitutes legal advice, and you should not act or refrain from acting based on information on the Site without seeking advice from qualified counsel regarding your specific circumstances. The Firm does not guarantee that information on the Site is current, complete, accurate, or applicable to your particular matter.

No Attorney-Client Relationship

Your use of the Site, including submitting a contact form, completing an intake form, scheduling a consultation, sending an email, calling the Firm, or otherwise communicating with the Firm, does not create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship is formed only after the Firm has completed any necessary conflict check, agreed in writing to represent you, and you have signed an engagement letter with the Firm.

Website Inquiries and Intake Submissions

The Site may allow you to submit inquiries, schedule consultations, complete intake forms, upload information, or otherwise provide information to the Firm through tools operated by or integrated with third-party legal technology providers, including Clio. These tools may be used to help the Firm receive inquiries, organize intake information, evaluate potential matters, conduct conflict checks, communicate with prospective clients, and determine whether the Firm may agree to provide legal services. Submitting information through the Site or through any Firm intake process does not obligate the Firm to represent you, and the Firm may decline representation for any reason, including conflicts, capacity, subject-matter fit, jurisdictional limitations, or other professional considerations.

Do Not Send Unrequested Confidential Information

Unless and until the Firm has agreed in writing to represent you, you should not send unrequested confidential, privileged, proprietary, sensitive, or time-sensitive information to the Firm through the Site, by email, or through any intake tool. Communications sent before an attorney-client relationship is formed may not be protected by the attorney-client privilege and may not prevent the Firm from representing another person or entity in the same or a related matter, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law or professional obligations. The Firm may use information submitted through the Site or intake process to review your inquiry, conduct conflict checks, evaluate whether the Firm may represent you, communicate with you, and administer Firm operations.

No Guarantee of Results; Attorney Advertising

The Site may constitute attorney advertising under applicable law and professional rules. Any descriptions of the Firm's services, experience, representative matters, prior results, settlements, verdicts, or case outcomes are provided for informational purposes only. Prior results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter. Unless expressly stated, no attorney of the Firm is certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.

User Eligibility

By using the Site, you represent that you are at least eighteen (18) years old and have the legal authority to agree to these Terms of Use. You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

Permitted Use

The Firm grants you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable permission to access and use the Site for lawful, personal, and informational purposes. You may not use the Site to violate any law or regulation; interfere with the Site's operation or security; attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site or related systems; transmit malware, harmful code, or abusive content; scrape, crawl, copy, or extract Site content using automated tools; misrepresent your identity or affiliation; or infringe the rights of the Firm or any third party. The Firm may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Site at any time.

Intellectual Property

The Site and its content, including text, graphics, logos, images, design, layout, and other materials, are owned by or licensed to Gonzalez & Rothchild LLP and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, display, publish, or commercially exploit any Site content without the Firm's prior written consent.

Privacy and Third-Party Service Providers

The Firm's collection, use, disclosure, retention, and protection of personal information submitted through the Site are addressed in the Firm's Privacy Policy, Notice of Privacy Practices, and Third-Party Vendor List, as applicable. Those documents may identify third-party service providers used by the Firm, including legal technology, client-intake, website, hosting, analytics, communications, payment, document-management, or practice-management vendors. These Terms of Use govern your use of the Site, while the Firm's privacy-related documents govern the Firm's privacy practices and should be read together with these Terms of Use.

Electronic Communications and Security

By using the Site or providing contact information to the Firm, you consent to receive communications from the Firm by email, telephone, mail, website posting, or other reasonable means. Electronic communications are not always secure, and email, website forms, intake tools, and other electronic communications may be intercepted, misdirected, delayed, corrupted, accessed by unauthorized parties, or otherwise compromised. You are responsible for using appropriate safeguards when communicating electronically.

Third-Party Links and Tools

The Site may include links to third-party websites, platforms, tools, or services that are not owned or controlled by the Firm. These links and tools are provided for convenience only and do not imply endorsement, sponsorship, or responsibility by the Firm. Your use of third-party websites, platforms, tools, or services may be subject to separate terms, privacy policies, and practices.

Class Action Waiver

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and the Firm each waive the right to participate in any class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative action arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms of Use.

Governing Law and Forum

These Terms of Use and any dispute arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. You and the Firm agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms of Use shall be resolved on an individual basis exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Harris County, Texas, and each party consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Firm may seek injunctive or equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Changes to These Terms

The Firm may update these Terms of Use at any time. Changes are effective when posted on the Site unless otherwise stated, and your continued use of the Site after changes are posted means that you accept the revised Terms of Use.

General Terms

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held unlawful, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect. The Firm's failure to enforce any provision of these Terms of Use is not a waiver of that provision or any other provision. These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and the Firm regarding your use of the Site.
