Many clients are located in other states and countries (United Kingdom, Australia, etc.). Most Internet legal issues involve federal and international laws that we routinely handle. If something comes up that involves the laws of a particular country, state, or province, local legal counsel can be brought in to help resolve the issue.

FREEBIES - I’m broke but need legal help. Will you work for free?

Each December, our Internet law firm selects the nonprofit charities that it will provide legal services to on a pro bono (free) basis and the organizations and events it will sponsor. If you are a nonprofit charitable institution, please apply by November 30th for consideration. Free or low cost legal representation for indigents may be available through your state or local bar association. Here is a list of some legal services organizations. If you need website legal forms (privacy policy, terms of use, etc.) and can’t afford to pay an Internet lawyer, consider getting the Website Legal Forms Generator software. Our law firm created the website legal document templates used in the software.

BUSINESS ENTITY - What type of business entity should I use? Should I operate my business as a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, or limited liability company?

Each situation is unique. However, many successful business owners use either a limited liability company or a corporation. Your Internet business attorney can help you pick the right type of business entity for your needs.

COMPLAINTS - How do I complain about a website that has your legal documents (Privacy Policy, Terms of Use, etc.) on it?

There are literally thousands of websites that use legal documents created by our Internet law firm. The law firm does not own these websites or their email services. The copyright notice on website legal documents means our firm owns the documents -- not the website. If you are upset with a particular website, contact the owner of the site. You can usually find contact information on the website in places such as the site's Privacy Policy. You may also find domain name registration using WHOIS. Sending our firm nasty messages and threats is misplaced anger.

If you have a complaint about this website or our law firm, please contact us. We typically respond within 24 hours on weekdays.
