Need a lawyer's help?
The Internet is terrific for making information
available easily and inexpensively. It is not, however, equally appropriate for
providing personalized legal advice for netizens.
Beware of acting on responses posted on internet legal bulletin
boards. There are a lot of people posting "answers" to
questions who apparently have neither training nor experience, and are
promulgating information that is just flat wrong!
Use the internet to gather information, get perspective, and stimulate
your thinking. BUT before you make any decision about your legal
affairs, even if the decision is to do nothing, get real legal advice
from an experienced lawyer. Cathy on how
to use internet legal resources.
Why not by email?
- Email cannot replace the question and answer, give and take of a
conversation between attorney and client. Without all the facts, legal advice may be
not only worthless, but dangerous. Getting all the relevant facts is what good
lawyers are trained to do; what seems irrelevant or even forgotten to the client may
be central to a legal issue from the lawyer's perspective.
- Lawyers are licensed by each state, to practice in that state, and
with respect to the law of that state. Even though the bankruptcy law is federal
law, many of the rights that the bankruptcy law affects are created by state law.
It is a violation of law for a lawyer to provide advice in a state where
the lawyer is not licensed.
