1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using LawFirms.co.uk, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the Terms, you may not access the Website.

2. Nature of Service

LawFirms.co.uk is solely a legal directory service. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal services, advice, or representation of any kind.

We act purely as an information platform listing law firms and their services. We do not function as an intermediary or "middle man" service.

3. Directory Listings

While we strive to list only genuine and reputable law firms, we cannot and do not guarantee the trustworthiness, quality, or legitimacy of any firm listed on our directory.

All users must conduct their own due diligence before engaging any law firm's services.

Listed law firms are responsible for:

Maintaining the accuracy of their information
Promptly notifying us of any changes to their contact details or circumstances
Ensuring compliance with all applicable laws and regulations
Managing their own client relationships and services

4. Reviews and Ratings

Reviews displayed on LawFirms.co.uk are collected from Google Reviews.

We do not verify, edit, or endorse these reviews.

We reserve the right to remove any reviews that we believe to be fraudulent, inappropriate, or in violation of these Terms.

5. Payment and Refunds

Refund requests must be submitted within 24 hours of payment.

No refunds will be issued after the 24-hour period, as firms begin receiving advertising benefits immediately upon listing.

6. No Guarantees

We explicitly make no guarantees regarding:

Client enquiries or leads
Search engine ranking improvements
Business success or outcomes
Quality of legal services provided by listed firms

Such factors are beyond our control and depend on various external variables.

Any claims arising from the use of our directory

This limitation of liability applies to the maximum extent permitted by law.

8. Privacy and Data Protection

User enquiries are made directly with law firms.

In the event of acquisition or merger, firm details may be transferred to the acquiring entity to ensure service continuity.

9. Intellectual Property

All content on LawFirms.co.uk, including text, graphics, logos, and software, is our property and is protected by UK intellectual property laws.

We reserve the right to:

Modify or withdraw the Website without notice
Block access to users violating these Terms
Remove listings that violate these Terms or applicable laws

11. Force Majeure

We shall not be liable for any failure to perform our obligations where such failure is a result of Acts of Nature, war, civil unrest, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

12. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time.

Continued use of the Website following any changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.

13. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.

Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
