Use of this website ("Website") and the materials presented on it is subject to the following terms and conditions. By using this Website, you agree to these terms and conditions and acknowledge reading them.

The term "J&A" in this Legal Notice refers to Jackson & Associates, Inc., unless the context otherwise requires.

All materials have been prepared for general information purposes only to permit you to learn more about our firm and our services. The information presented is not legal advice, is not to be acted on as such, may not be current, and is subject to change without notice.

1. No Attorney-Client Relationship or Legal Advice

Communication of information by, in, to, or through this Website and your reciept or use of it (1) is not provided in the course of and does not create or constitute an attorney-client relationship, (2) is not intended as a solicitation, (3) is not intended to convey or constitute legal advice, and (4) is not a substitute for obtaining legal advice from a qualified attorney. You should not act upon any such information without first seeking qualified professional counsel on your specific matter. The hiring of an attorney is an important decision that should not be based solely upon Website communications or advertisements.

You also should not rely upon the transmission of an email-message to an attorney through this Website to create an attorney-client relationship. The transmission or exchange of information will not do so. Without an attorney-client relationship in the matter, we cannot assure you that your communications will be privileged or (unless we otherwise agree in a specific case) that we will treat them as such. Please do not send us any confidential or sensitive information until you speak with one of our attorneys and obtain prior written authorization to send that information to us.

2. Licensing Status

Unless otherwise expressly specified, no attorney of J&A is certified by, or certified as specialists or experts by, any professional or governmental agency or authority.   Designations of our firm's practice areas, or of expertise, experience, practice concentrations or specializations are not intended (1) to suggest or represent the contrary, or (2) to suggest any professional or governmental standard by which such experience is measured, or (3) to denigrate other attorneys or firms in any way.

J&A attorneys are licensed to practice only in California. In matters outside of California, our firm associates in qualified co-counsel who are duly licensed in their respective jurisdictions.

This Website is not intended as advertising or solicitation in any jurisdiction where the site would be so characterized and fail to comply with all applicable laws and ethical rules of that jurisdiction. J&A does not seek to represent anyone based solely upon a visit to this Website or upon advertising, or where to do so would not comply with applicable local laws and rules.
