We collect information in the following ways:
When you complete our case-review form, contact form, pro bono review form, or upload documents through the Site, email us, call us, or otherwise communicate with us, you may provide your name, phone number, email address, the type and date of an incident, a description of your situation, and any documents or photos you choose to share. Because our work involves legal matters, the information you send may include sensitive details about your health, your finances, or an incident involving you or a loved one. Please share only what you are comfortable providing in an initial inquiry.
Like most websites, the Site may automatically collect limited technical information through your browser and through cookies or similar technologies—for example, your IP address, device and browser type, pages viewed, referring pages, and the dates and times of your visits. We may use this information to operate, secure, and improve the Site, and we may use analytics services that collect this information on our behalf.
Some pages embed third-party content, such as web fonts and a map of our office location. These providers may receive certain technical information (such as your IP address) when that content loads. Their handling of information is governed by their own privacy policies.

Submitting information through the Site, or otherwise contacting the Firm, does not create an attorney-client relationship and does not make you a client. An attorney-client relationship is formed only after we confirm there is no conflict of interest and both you and the Firm sign a written engagement agreement. Until then, please do not send information you consider highly confidential or time-sensitive, and understand that information you submit may not be protected by the attorney-client privilege. Once you become a client, your information is protected in accordance with our professional and ethical obligations under the Texas Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct and applicable law.
We do not sell or rent your personal information. Mobile information will not be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. We may share information only as follows:
SMS opt-in and phone numbers collected for SMS consent will not be shared with any third party or affiliate company.
The Site may use cookies and similar technologies to function properly and to understand how visitors use the Site. Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect how the Site works. Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" signal; because there is no common industry standard for responding to these signals, the Site may not respond to them.
We retain information for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry, to provide and document our services, to comply with our legal and professional obligations, and to resolve disputes. Retention periods for client files are governed by applicable rules and our records-management practices.
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we hold. However, no website or method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Information you send over the internet or by email is transmitted at your own risk.
You may choose not to provide information through the Site, though that may limit our ability to respond to you. You may opt out of marketing emails by following the unsubscribe instructions in those messages. To ask us to review, update, or delete information you have provided—subject to our legal and professional obligations to retain certain records—contact us using the details below. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws.
The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us so we can address it. (Information about a minor that a parent or guardian provides in connection with a potential claim is handled as part of that inquiry.)
The Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
