8. No Legal Advice; No Attorney-Client Relationship
This section is critically important and should be reviewed carefully.
The Service is a document organization tool. It is not a legal service. Use of the Service does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and the Company or any of its employees, officers, or contractors.
The questionnaires, document lists, and organizational framework provided by the Service are designed to assist with document collection and organization only. They do not constitute legal advice. The DCDS (Divorce and Custody Document System) standard used by the Service is a document organization framework and does not constitute a legal opinion about what documents are required in your specific legal matter.
You should retain a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction to represent you in your legal proceedings. The Service is designed to complement, not replace, legal representation.
The Company makes no representation that the document list generated for you is complete, accurate, or appropriate for your specific legal situation. Your attorney may require additional or different documents.
9. Intellectual Property
