Privacy Policy Notice

Attorneys who provide legal services involving financial matters of clients are now required by federal law to inform their clients of their policies regarding the privacy of client information. The purpose of this notice is to explain what we will be doing with the personal and financial information that you provide to us, and the ways that we will protect your privacy. 

Texas attorneys are bound by the Texas Rules of Professional Conduct.  These professional ethics rules govern our conduct and require us to protect your confidentiality. These professional standards are even more stringent than those now required by federal law. Therefore, we have always protected your right to privacy and will continue to do so.  Federal law now also requires that we let you know how we are protecting your privacy. 

Types of Personal Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect personal data from you such as your name, phone number, mobile number, email address, mailing address, and any other personal data you submit to us.

Types of Nonpublic Personal Information We Collect 

We collect nonpublic personal information about you that is provided to us by you or obtained by us in the course of providing you with legal services that you have requested.  This information, in some cases, includes information about your personal finances and property. 

Disclosure of Information 

We may use your personal data to send you personalized information regarding our services, promotional messages, marketing, advertising, events, and other information that we think may be of interest to you. We will not disclose your personal data to any third parties outside of our firm prior to seeking your permission.

When you become our client, we disclose nonpublic personal information about you only to individuals or entities necessary to provide you with the legal services that you have requested.  For instance, our staff may have access to your nonpublic personal information for us to efficiently provide you with the legal services you have requested.  In some situations, we may provide information to another organization (such as your accountant, your realtor, or insurance company) to obtain information or assist in providing the legal services you have requested. We do not disclose any nonpublic personal information about you to anyone, except as is necessary to provide you with the legal services that you have requested. 

You Have The Right to Opt Out of Marketing Messages or Prohibit Disclosure 

If you do not wish to receive future marketing messages from us, you may follow the unsubscribe instructions contained in the message you receive. Kindly note that you may continue to receive messages from us that are necessary to provide you with the legal services you have requested including appointment confirmations, documents for review, court date reminders, etc.

If for any reason you do not want us to provide nonpublic personal information about you to other parties in the course of providing you with legal services, you may direct us not to make those disclosures.  If you wish to direct us not to disclose information, please send a message to us in the client portal. 

Your Privacy Is Important to Us 

We retain records and files relating to the professional services you have asked us to provide. To guard your nonpublic personal information, we maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with the Code of Professional Responsibility that governs our profession.  Please call us with any questions that you have about protecting your privacy.
