Please read before using any information on our website.

Bond, Schoeneck & King PLLC (Bond, we, or us), has prepared this website to present only general information. This website is not intended as legal advice, nor should you consider it as such. You should not act, or decline to act, based upon the contents of this website. While we try to make sure that the information on our website is complete and accurate, laws can change quickly. You should always formally engage a lawyer of your choosing before taking actions which have legal consequences.

The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Before you decide, ask us to send you free written information about our qualifications and experience.

We welcome your calls, letters and e-mail, but please keep in mind that merely contacting Bond does not establish an attorney-client relationship between us, nor do we undertake any obligation to respond simply because you have contacted us. Before we can accept any new client, our professional obligations require that we determine whether or not there are any actual or potential conflicts with existing or former clients. Thus, absent express notification from us, you cannot assume that an attorney-client relationship exists.

Accordingly, you should not send confidential information to Bond, via this website or otherwise, until you have been notified in writing by us that a formal attorney-client relationship has been established. There is no guarantee that information sent without that notification will be kept as confidential. If you already are a client of Bond, please note that Internet E-mail may not be secure, and that you should not send sensitive or confidential information through Internet E-mail unless it is properly encrypted.

IRS CIRCULAR 230 DISCLOSURE - IRS regulations require us to notify you that any federal tax advice contained in this website (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code.
