The information on the FullForce Legal Services LLP (hereinafter “FFLS”) website is prepared for and provided to a general audience and therefore does not constitute legal advice. The reader is advised to check for changes to current law and consult with a qualified paralegal on any legal issue within a paralegal’s scope of practice or a lawyer.

While FFLS endeavors to provide accurate information on this website, we cannot guarantee that the information provided here (or linked to from this site) is accurate, complete, up-to-date, or adequate. We provide this general legal information on an “as-is” basis. We make no warranties and disclaim liability for damages resulting from its use. Legal advice must be tailored to the specific circumstances of each case, and laws are constantly changing, so nothing provided on this site, nor in third-party links, should be used as a substitute for the advice of competent licensed legal representatives.

Using this website, contacting FFLS via this website, booking an online appointment or otherwise sending emails to FFLS does not create a paralegal-client relationship. You do not become a client of FFLS unless and until FFLS agrees to act on your behalf pursuant to the signing of a written retainer agreement. Additionally, any information you post to this site, any third-party site (via booking agent or otherwise) or email to FFLS via this site shall not be considered confidential. Internet email is especially vulnerable to interception and therefore, you agree that use of this site is at your sole risk and that FFLS will not be responsible for any damages you may suffer as a result of transmitting information to FFLS via this site or implicitly or explicitly authorizing FFLS to send information to you or otherwise communicate with you via the Internet.
