No Attorney Client Relationship or Privilege
Your visiting this website and The Brands, does NOT in and of itself establish an attorney-client relationship. To be clear, there is no privilege or attorney-client relationship between The Brands and its visitors (you). While she is a lawyer, any communication and information exchanged via The Brands shall not be considered legal advice, nor is an attorney client privilege established or exists between us. The creation of an attorney-client privilege varies by state but there are many things to consider before an attorney-client relationship exists.

 

The Firm selects limited clients to represent in her capacity as a lawyer. It is firm's policy to first have a separate and individual offline discussion to clear any conflicts of interests and understand your particular matter before she could represent you and second, we'd need to enter into a written engagement letter specifying the nature of the relationships, scope of legal services from The Firm and compensation structure.

 

Please understand that even if The Firm holds a Consultation Session with you that does not in and of itself imply or create an attorney - client relationship. Likewise, her relationship as a Brand Ambassador, an Event Partnership with MomTime Events does not and is not an attorney client relationship.
