AGREEMENT
This is a binding legal agreement between yourself and SmartLegalForms. Your use of this Website and/or your acceptance without modification of the terms, conditions, and disclaimers contained in these Terms constitutes your agreement to all such terms, conditions, and disclaimers. If you do not agree with these terms then you are not authorized to use this Website.
OUR AIMS
The Service is intended to bring to the legal market place a product which has never existed in the past, namely an automated fixed fee document assembly system as a means to document various legal transactions in a price competitive way. As I indicated elsewhere in this Terms and Conditions Statement, the legal information and legal documents available from this website is not a substitute for the legal advice of an attorney who is a member of the bar of the state where you live.
THE GUIDE
While every precaution has been taken in compiling the Service, neither SmartLegalForms, nor any contributors to the Guide can be held responsible for any action (or the lack thereof) taken by any person or organization, wherever they shall be based, as a result, direct or otherwise, of information contained in or accessed through the Guide. ANYONE USING THE GUIDE IS RECOMMENDED TO SEEK SPECIFIC ADVICE FROM AN ATTORNEY WHO IS A MEMBER OF THE BAR IN THE STATE IN WHICH YOU ARE RESIDENT BEFORE DEALING WITH ANY SITUATION WHICH MAY BE COVERED BY ANY INFORMATION CONTAINED IN ANY PART OF THE GUIDE OR BEFORE EMBARKING ON ANY COURSE OF ACTION.
LEGAL DOCUMENT SERVICE
Limitations on the Service
You must be aware that the Service is driven by a document assembly system into which standard legal documents have been inserted in an interactive format. When used the software will automatically produce a version of a Document based on a standard text utilizing the information you have entered. It is however a computer system and while it is interactive, it does not have human like intelligence and does not have the capacity to think outside the pre-programmed information contained in it.
What you are purchasing from SmartLegalForms is a legal product in the form of an 'intelligent' document which contains the 'know-how' of SmartLegalForms's expert legal drafters and it is not a legal service. The legal document products provided are not a substitute for legal advice provided by a duly licensed attorney.
While SmartLegalForms has taken every care in ensuring the accuracy of the contents of the Documents, due to the continuing changing nature of the legal systems as well as statute and common law the information contained in the Documents will during the passage of time become outdated.
SmartLegalForms will use reasonable efforts to update Documents. SmartLegalForms believes that the Documents contain sufficient information to provide you with a starting point in the process of assembling a standard legal document. The Documents are not suitable to provide expert legal advice or where any transaction will require the Documents to be amended or altered. They should be utilized as a guide only to production of the relevant documentation for the purpose ascribed to it.
Support
Telephone Support will be provided during business hours which are [9.00am] to [5.00pm] Monday - Friday, Eastern Standard Time. While SmartLegalForms will do its best to respond within two business days of your e-mail request for support, SmartLegalForms cannot guarantee that this will be the case and it will depend upon the available resources within the call center and the current workload on the system.
