Terms of use
The plain terms for reading and using this site.
In effect from October 18, 2026.
What this site is
lawyer.co is a plain guide to hiring a personal injury lawyer: how fees work, how to check a license, what to ask and what to read before you sign. It is attorney advertising, published by The Ledger Law Firm, and you can use it to hire any lawyer you like.
General information only
The site gives general information. It is not legal advice about your situation. A rule shown here is a general statement with exceptions that the page may not list, and each rule links to its source so you can read the regulation itself.
Attorney review of the pages that state rules is in progress, and each such page says so.
No attorney client relationship
Reading the site does not make the firm your lawyer, and neither does sending the form. That relationship begins with a written agreement signed by you and the firm. Until then, please do not send anything confidential.
Time limits
Please do not use this site to work out how long you have to act. Which deadline applies depends on your facts, and these pages do not cover every case. Ask a lawyer to confirm the date.
No promise about results
Each case turns on its own facts. No page here promises or predicts how a claim will end.
Licensing
The states where the firm has licensed attorneys are named at the foot of every page, and the who we are page says which attorney is licensed where. Nothing here offers representation in a state where none of them is licensed.
Other websites
The source links lead to government and other public websites. The firm does not run them and is not responsible for what they say.
Using the site fairly
Please do not send the form for someone else without their agreement, send it by automated means, or try to interfere with the site.
Your information
The privacy notice and the consumer health data privacy notice say what the site collects and what the firm does with it.
Changes
These terms may change. The version on this page, with its date, is the one in force.
