Hi All,
There is a disclaimer posted on my site. I have a slightly different one in my CorporateVeil Pro product, but it too is written in English.
You see, giving people legal advice when you are not a lawyer is not a good idea. Even if you are a lawyer it can be a bad idea. You can interpret what you believe to be true, and provide that information, but in the end people need to verify that the information is valid for their circumstances.
Some of the information I dispense may even be based on incomplete or incorrect facts, but that would be entirely inadvertent. (You should never knowingly print lies, that is a form of fraud and it removes a lot of your protection.)
In keeping with my thinking that things should be kept clear and concise, I’ve reprinted my website disclaimer below, it’s also in the column to your right, under my serious picture.
This disclaimer is intended to protect me somewhat against someone taking some piece of information he or she read, implementing it, then not liking the results…
As an example, lets say I tell people that they need their own business, and they quit their job, start a business, and they go bankrupt in a year, and then their mother-in-laws says “You Idiot, why would you start a business?” and the idiot says, “Some blogger guy said I should”, and that mother in law says “lets get Uncle Frank down at the Hair Care, Tire Repair and Legal Defense Center and we’ll sue that sucker”… (you get the picture)
So Uncle Frank, please calm your sister down and tell her to leave me alone, because…
An important legal disclaimer…
I am not a lawyer.
I am not licensed to practice law in any state, mine, yours, or any other.
I don’t even play one on TV.
So, I am NOT dispensing legal advice with this system.
Businesses are often different.
Different states could have different laws which apply to your situation.
You need to have a lawyer review your situation.
I want to be clear on this point.
I do not replace the role of a lawyer as a vital part of your Professional Team.
I just help you use your lawyer more cost-effectively.
A few questions to ponder…
Do you need a short disclaimer on your site?
Could someone act on your information and decide to sue you?
Do you need professional liability insurance in your business?
We’ll be discussing this in the future…
