TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO THE USE OF THIS WEBSITE

Use of this website is subject to the following terms and conditions. By viewing any of the material appearing on this site, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to the following:

The information provided here is not legal advice and it is not intended for use as legal advice or as a substitute for professional counsel. Stueve Siegel Hanson LLP (“SSH”) has assembled this material for informational purposes only. Online viewers should not act on information appearing on this site in any matter affecting their interests without obtaining legal advice and counsel.

Neither viewing this website, nor using it to send any communication to SSH or its attorneys, shall create an attorney-client relationship between the user and SSH. While we would very much like to hear from you, we cannot represent you until we have determined that no conflict of interest would arise from accepting such an engagement, and you and we agree to form an attorney-client relationship. No attorney-client relationship will arise before a SSH attorney has specifically advised you that the firm is accepting an engagement on your behalf and you agree to hire us, after appropriate conflicts checks and inquiries have been concluded.

Consequently, do not use the e-mail link available through this website to send us any confidential information. Until you have received specific confirmation of an engagement from an SSH attorney, any information that you send to the firm through the website or by other means is acknowledged by you to be information that is not confidential and is not a privileged attorney-client communication. We do not owe any duty of confidentiality to any persons who send unsolicited email messages, mail, or facsimiles to our firm, lawyers, or other employees listed on this website without our advance and express authorization. Our receipt of unsolicited information will not create an attorney-client relationship nor preclude us from representing any actual or potential party adverse to your interests.

Although reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the material appearing on this website is correct and reasonably timely, accuracy and timeliness are not guaranteed. SSH makes no representations or warranties as to the accuracy and timeliness of the material and assumes no responsibility for the consequences of its use. Your use of this information is at your own risk.

Neither SSH nor anyone who participated in creating and presenting this website and its content is or will be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages, or losses of any kind, which may arise from access to this site or the use of any information, images, or sound appearing on it or derived from it.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SSH, its partners, officers, employees, agents, representatives, suppliers and content and service providers from and against all losses, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, resulting from any violation of these terms and conditions or any activity, including negligent or wrongful conduct, by you in connection with your use of this website.

In accordance with the common terminology used in professional service organizations, we use the term "partner" in this website to refer to an attorney who is a partner or a person of equivalent standing or authority in SSH.

These terms and conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. By using this website you agree that the State or Federal courts in Kansas City, Missouri shall have exclusive jurisdiction and venue to hear any dispute arising out the content or use of this website, and you agree not to bring any action or proceeding in any other venue.
