Limitation of Representation

Annie Harrison is licensed to practice law in Ohio. This website and law office offer services related only to Ohio law. HLS does not seek, and this website is not intended to solicit, legal employment in any state that would constitute the unauthorized practice of law.

Contact before Attorney-Client Relationship is Established

Transmission of information from contact forms or attorney's e-mail through this site does not establish an attorney-client relationship. Any information conveyed to HLS via the Internet may not be secure, and information conveyed prior to establishing an attorney-client relationship may not be privileged or confidential. Therefore, please do not send any confidential information to HLS until an attorney-client relationship has been clearly established.

Establishing an Attorney-Client Relationship

An attorney-client relationship will be established only after Annie Harrison has expressly communicated the ability to represent you. The attorney may decline to represent you if a possible conflict of interest is discovered, or if she believes your legal needs cannot be addressed in an online setting. Please do not use the website contact form or attorney's email to provide confidential information to the attorney as no attorney-client privilege is formed until the Legal Services Agreement is signed by client and attorney.
