If you do not agree with these Terms and Conditions, please do not use this website.
2. Information on This Website
The information provided on this website is intended for general informational purposes only. While we endeavour to ensure that the information is accurate and up to date, we do not guarantee that all information is complete, current or applicable to your particular circumstances.
The content of this website should not be regarded as legal advice. Every legal matter is different, and specific legal advice should be obtained from a suitably qualified legal practitioner.
3. No Attorney-Client Relationship
The use of this website, including submitting an enquiry or completing the contact form, does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship between you and Shaw Attorneys Incorporated.
An attorney-client relationship will only arise once Shaw Attorneys Incorporated has formally accepted a mandate and the necessary arrangements have been concluded.
4. Contact and Consultation Requests
Information submitted through this website may be used to respond to your enquiry and to determine whether Shaw Attorneys Incorporated may be able to assist you.
Submitting a consultation request does not guarantee that we will accept your matter or provide legal representation.
If your matter is urgent, particularly where an arrest or imminent court appearance is involved, you should contact us directly rather than relying solely on an online enquiry.
5. Confidentiality
Although we take reasonable steps to protect information submitted through this website, you should avoid submitting highly confidential or sensitive information through the contact form until an attorney-client relationship has been established.
Information submitted through the website does not necessarily attract attorney-client privilege merely because it has been sent to us.

Unless otherwise indicated, the content of this website, including text, graphics, logos and other materials, belongs to Shaw Attorneys Incorporated or is used with permission.
You may view and use the website for your personal and non-commercial purposes. You may not reproduce, modify, distribute or commercially exploit material from this website without our prior written permission.

8. Website Availability
We endeavour to keep this website available and functioning properly but do not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted or free from errors.

9. Limitation of Liability
To the extent permitted by law, Shaw Attorneys Incorporated will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance upon, information contained on this website.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions is intended to exclude or limit any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
