Disclaimer

This site is intended to give you legal information, not legal advice. We do our best to make sure that the information is accurate and up to date, but the law changes rapidly.

The law is different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and even similar laws may be interpreted differently in different courts or in different places. The law is a personal matter, and no general information like the kind we provide can fit every circumstance, so you should consult a licensed lawyer in your area to get specific advice for your problem. In short, nothing on this website, including our Ask a Lawyer feature, should be considered legal advice.
