Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I take legal action on the basis of an article on the site? No. All articles and content on our site are for information purposes only and do not constitute legal advice. Every legal situation is different and requires a specific assessment. Acting on the basis of an article may result in the loss of rights. You should in all cases obtain professional support from a lawyer.

2. Can I use a sample petition on your website directly? The sample petitions offered on our site are general drafts. These samples are intended to give an idea of the format of a petition and the basic elements it may contain. Every specific case has its own particular circumstances, and the petition needs to be prepared specifically in accordance with those circumstances. Using a draft text directly may result in serious procedural or substantive errors in your case or application.

3. Why was my comment not published, or why was it deleted? Comments go through a moderation process to check their compliance with the professional rules of the legal profession and with general rules of morality. Comments containing insults, profanity, spam or advertising, or that are unlawful, are not approved and are deleted. In addition, since no lawyer-client relationship is established, no legal advice service is provided through comments.

4. Is the currency of the information on the Site guaranteed? No. Law is a dynamic field that is constantly changing and developing. Laws, regulations and court decisions are frequently updated. Although we make efforts to keep our content up to date, it may not reflect changes in legislation that occur after its publication date. For this reason, the currency of the information is not guaranteed.

5. I sent a question through the contact form. Does this mean that I have consulted a lawyer? No. The contact form is a tool for you to reach us regarding appointment requests or general matters. Asking a question or sending information through this form does not create a lawyer-client relationship or a duty of confidentiality. Please avoid sharing your sensitive information through this form.
