Legal Disclaimer

1. No Attorney-Client Relationship

Use of the LegalMind Service does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and LegalMind or any of its employees, contractors, or affiliates.

Communications with LegalMind (including through our AI chat interface, document analysis, or document generation features) are not protected by attorney-client privilege and may not be confidential.

If you need legal advice, you should consult with a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction who can evaluate your specific situation.

2. Not Legal Advice

The information, documents, case law, and AI-generated content provided through the LegalMind Service are for informational and research purposes only and do not constitute legal advice.

This includes but is not limited to:

• AI-generated responses to legal questions
• Document analysis and summaries
• AI-generated legal documents and templates
• Case law search results and summaries
• Legal research suggestions and citations

You should not rely on any information from LegalMind as legal advice. Legal matters can be complex and fact-specific, requiring analysis by a qualified attorney familiar with your particular circumstances.

3. AI-Generated Content Limitations

3.1 Accuracy Not Guaranteed

AI-generated content may contain:

• Errors and inaccuracies: AI can misinterpret questions or provide incorrect information
• Outdated information: Laws change frequently; AI training data may not reflect the latest legal developments
• Hallucinations: AI may generate plausible-sounding but entirely fictitious case citations, statutes, or legal principles
• Incomplete analysis: AI cannot consider all nuances of your specific situation
• Jurisdiction issues: Legal principles vary by jurisdiction; AI responses may not be applicable to your location

3.2 Verification Required

You MUST independently verify all AI-generated information before relying on it. This includes:

• Verifying case citations exist and are correctly stated
• Confirming statutes and regulations are current
• Checking that legal principles apply to your jurisdiction
• Reviewing AI-generated documents with a qualified attorney before use

3.3 Professional Review Required

All documents generated by LegalMind must be reviewed and edited by a qualified attorney before being used for any legal purpose. AI-generated documents are drafts only and should never be filed with courts, submitted to government agencies, or relied upon without attorney review.

4. No Guarantee of Results

LegalMind makes no representations or warranties about:

• The accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information provided
• The suitability of any legal strategy or approach
• The outcomes of legal matters
• The timeliness or currency of legal information
• The applicability of information to your specific situation

Use of LegalMind does not guarantee any particular legal outcome or result.

5. State-Specific Limitations

Legal rules, procedures, and requirements vary significantly by jurisdiction (federal, state, and local). The Service provides general information that may not apply to your specific jurisdiction.

You are responsible for understanding and complying with the laws applicable to your situation.

LegalMind cannot and does not represent that the information provided is appropriate or valid for your jurisdiction. Always consult with an attorney licensed in your jurisdiction.

6. Third-Party Content

6.1 Court Opinions and Case Law

LegalMind provides access to court opinions and case law from third-party sources (such as CourtListener). We do not guarantee:

• The accuracy or completeness of case law databases
• That all relevant cases have been identified
• That cases are current or have not been overruled
• That citations and quotations are error-free

6.2 Shepardizing Required

You must independently verify the current status of all case law, including checking whether cases have been appealed, overruled, or limited. Use professional legal research tools (Westlaw, LexisNexis, etc.) for comprehensive research.

7. Unauthorized Practice of Law

LegalMind does not engage in the unauthorized practice of law. We are a technology platform providing research and drafting tools.

If you use LegalMind to assist others with legal matters, you are responsible for ensuring you are authorized to practice law in your jurisdiction.

Providing legal advice or representation without proper licensing may constitute the unauthorized practice of law, which is illegal in all U.S. jurisdictions.

8. Time-Sensitive Matters

Do not rely on LegalMind for time-sensitive legal matters.

Legal matters often involve strict deadlines (statutes of limitations, filing deadlines, notice requirements). Missing a deadline can result in loss of legal rights.

If you have a time-sensitive legal issue, contact a qualified attorney immediately. Do not delay seeking legal advice while using LegalMind.

9. No Confidentiality Guarantee

Information you submit to LegalMind is subject to our Privacy Policy, but is NOT protected by attorney-client privilege.

While we implement security measures:

• No data transmission over the Internet is completely secure
• Documents and communications may be processed by third-party AI services
• We may be required to disclose information in response to legal process

Do not submit highly sensitive or confidential information that you wish to protect under attorney-client privilege.

10. Document Generation Disclaimer

LegalMind's document generation feature creates draft documents only. These drafts:

• Are generated by AI and may contain errors
• Are not customized to your specific legal situation
• May not comply with local court rules or filing requirements
• Should never be used without attorney review
• Are not guaranteed to be legally valid or enforceable

Filing AI-generated documents without attorney review may result in rejection, sanctions, or adverse legal consequences.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, LEGALMIND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING FROM:

• Your use of or reliance on information provided by the Service
• Errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in AI-generated content
• Missed deadlines or legal opportunities
• Adverse legal outcomes

See our Terms of Service for complete limitation of liability provisions.
