This site is intended to give you legal information; not legal advice. We do our best to make sure that the information is accurate and up to date, but the law changes rapidly. So we can't guarantee that all the information on the site is completely current. The law is different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and even similar laws may be interpreted differently in different courts or in different places. The law is a personal matter, and no general information like the kind we provide can fit every circumstance, so you should consult a licensed lawyer in your area to get specific advice for your problem. In short, nothing on this website, including our Frequently Asked Questions feature, should be considered legal advice. Capistrant Law is not responsible for any loss, injury, claim, liability, or damage related to your use of the site, whether from errors or omissions in the content of our site or any other linked sites, from the site being down or from any other use of the site.

INFORMATION ON THIS WEBSITE IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY AND CERTAINLY CONTAINS NUMEROUS INACCURACIES.

NOTHING ON THIS WEBSITE CREATES DUTIES OF LEGAL REPRESENTATION.

ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP

NOTHING on this website establishes an attorney-client relationship. A website offers general information - like a book in the library -- not specific personal legal advice. The editors of Webster's Dictionary are not responsible for your spelling errors. The authors of Chilton's Manuals will never come to your home to help you finish tuning up your Ford Maverick. Similarly, the information on this website is GENERAL INFORMATION, possibly wrong, possibly out-of-date, and not tailored to your case.

Sending an E-MAIL does not establish an attorney-client relationship. Sending the authors or editors an e-mail DOES NOT establish an attorney-client relationship. Hiring an attorney usually requires singing a contract and paying a retainer. Some further exceptions may apply where an attorney offers specific legal advice in response to information and questions relating to a specific case in the course of a consultation. One-way correspondence is NEVER such a consultation.

Leaving a telephone message or writing a letter does not in itself establish an attorney-client relationship. One-way correspondence is not a consultation.

Nothing on the Internet - and no form of advertising -- provides sufficient information to choose a lawyer. Before you choose a lawyer, you should carefully consider several much more reliable indications of an attorney's competence. For example you should look into objective credentials, personal references, experience achievement, and your impressions in telephone consultations and face-to-face interviews. It is perfectly permissible to ask one lawyer you have never met to recommend a few more of his or her colleagues who might match your particular problems and price range. Again, even a mediocre practitioner is free to buy the largest and brightest yellow pages ad or to design the most colorful website. BUYERS BEWARE!**Any person involved in a legal proceeding would be wise to obtain COMPETENT local counsel with recent experience in the relevant area of law as soon as possible.

General information is NOT legal advice!!! All information presented here is general - too general to apply to any specific case. Further, the law changes every day. Information found here could be out of date. The only possible way to get reliable, up-to-date legal advice specific to your unique case is to consult one or more competent attorneys with recent experience in the relevant area of law as soon as possible. Accessing this website is NOT consultation with any attorney!!!

**Any person involved in a legal proceeding would be wise to obtain COMPETENT local counsel with recent experience in the relevant area of law as soon as possible.

This website treats Minnesota law only. Each state and each sovereign Indian band or tribe has its own unique body of Family Law. Uniform provisions of United States federal law or international law influence only a small part of the overall subject matter of Family Law as a whole. FOR INFORMATION RELEVANT OUTSIDE MINNESOTA, PLEASE SEE A DIFFERENT SOURCE OF INFORMATION!

**Any person involved in a legal proceeding would be wise to obtain COMPETENT local counsel with recent experience in the relevant area of law as soon as possible.
The time to seek competent counsel is RIGHT NOW. Depending upon your unique set of facts, delay may cause irreparable harm to your case. Time limits may be running. Almost every legal right is limited in time. Even knowing what time limits may affect a case requires legal experience plus investigation of the unique facts. Even if no pleadings have been served, your right to appeal a decision or to assert or contest paternity of a child, merely by example, or any other right might expire next week or tomorrow morning. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!

NOTHING ON THIS WEBSITE IS AN OFFER TO PROVIDE LEGAL REPRESENTATION.
No offer of contract is expressed or implied. Nothing on this website constitutes an offer of legal representation. In order to secure representation, a party must formally contract with the law firm through negotiation wholly apart from any information on this website. No information on this website offers any potential terms for securing legal representation. Information on this site and any products or services to which this site refers may be changed at any time without notice. This website contains general information only.

WE ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR OTHER WEBSITES.
Links to other sites are general information only. Capistrant Law makes no representations whatsoever about any other website which you may access through this one. Such linked sites are not under the control of Capistrant Law, and Capistrant Law is not responsible for the contents of any linked site or any link contained in a linked site or any changes to such sites. Although the Capistrant Law site includes links providing direct access to other Internet sites, Capistrant Law has not participated in the development of those other sites, and does not exert any editorial or other control over those sites.

Such links are provided only as a convenience, for general information, and the inclusion of a link does not imply Capistrant Law endorsement of the linked site.

WE PROVIDE NO ASSURANCE OF CONFIDENTIALITY.
Nothing on the Internet - Including e-mail - is really confidential. Like cell phones and cordless phones, e-mail is very convenient but subject to many types of invasion of privacy. No Assurances of privacy are offered. For a reasonable degree of privacy, the US Postal Service offers an economical choice.

WE ACCEPT NO DUTY TO REPLY TO INQUIRIES.
Further, the authors and editors offer no assurances than any e-mail, mail, telephone call, or other form of inquiry sent to our address or contact numbers will be read, heard, or replied to sooner, later, or ever. In particular, all e-mails will be regarded as non-confidential, general inquiries or comments from the general public, NOT attorney-client communication in any form. We accept no duty to reply promptly, accurately, or to reply at all to E-mails, mail, telephone calls, or any other form of inquiry insofar as no duty of legal representation is formed or offered by the provision of information herein.
