Bullock Law Firm
Effective Date: May 11, 2026
Welcome to www.bullocklawyer.com. These Terms and Conditions of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website located at www.bullocklawyer.com, the client intake forms, the client portal, SMS/text messaging communications, email communications, and any other interactive services made available by Bullock Law Firm, PLLC (“Bullock Law Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) (collectively, the “Services”). By accessing the Services, submitting an intake form, communicating with our team, or providing your phone number and consenting to receive text messages, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use the Services.
1. No Attorney-Client Relationship Created by Use of the Site
Your use of www.bullocklawyer.com, submission of any intake form, transmission of any email, completion of any contact form, exchange of text messages with our team, or any other communication you initiate with Bullock Law Firm does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and the firm or any of its attorneys. An attorney-client relationship is formed only after (i) Bullock Law Firm has completed a conflict-of-interest check, (ii) we have agreed in writing to represent you, and (iii) you have signed a written engagement or fee agreement with the firm.
Until that written engagement is signed, no information you transmit to us is protected as a confidential attorney-client communication, and we are under no obligation to take any action on your behalf, including responding within any particular time, preserving deadlines, or pursuing any claim. Do not send time-sensitive information through the website, intake forms, or text messages.
2. No Legal Advice
The content on www.bullocklawyer.com, in our blog posts, in our intake materials, and in any informational text messages or emails is provided for general informational purposes only and is not legal advice. Laws change frequently and vary by jurisdiction. You should not act, or refrain from acting, based on information from the Services without first seeking advice from a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction. Bullock Law Firm attorneys are licensed in Tennessee and accept matters in jurisdictions where they are admitted to practice or where they have associated local counsel.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age and legally able to enter into a binding contract to use the Services. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
4. SMS / Text Messaging Program — Consent, Use, and Opt-Out
This Section 4 is required disclosure for our text messaging program. Read it carefully before opting in. Our text messaging program is operated through our communications platform provider, Twilio, Inc. (“Twilio”), in compliance with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), the CTIA Messaging Principles and Best Practices, and applicable carrier requirements (including A2P 10DLC requirements).
4.1 How You Opt In
You consent to receive text messages from Bullock Law Firm when you take any of the following actions:
- Submit a form on www.bullocklawyer.com that includes a mobile phone number and a check-box or statement indicating consent to receive text messages;
- Provide your mobile phone number to a member of our team (in person, by phone, by email, or through the client portal) and indicate—verbally, in writing, or through the portal interface—that you agree to receive text messages from us;
- Reply to one of our messages with an affirmative keyword such as “YES,” “START,” or “JOIN”; or
- Initiate a text conversation with a published firm number.
Your consent is not a condition of any purchase or of our agreement to represent you. You may decline to receive text messages and still communicate with the firm by phone, email, the client portal, or U.S. mail.
4.2 What Messages You May Receive
Once you opt in, you may receive text messages from Bullock Law Firm that include, without limitation:
- Intake confirmations, conflict-check status, and follow-up questions related to your potential matter;
- Appointment reminders, scheduling, and rescheduling notices;
- Case status updates, court date reminders, and document-request notices;
- Requests to review or sign documents in the client portal;
- Billing notifications and payment reminders; and
- Operational and customer-care messages relating to your matter or your use of the Services.
We do not send marketing or promotional text messages to clients or prospective clients without separate, express prior consent. Messages are sent only as needed to support your matter or your inquiry. Message frequency varies based on your interactions with the firm.
4.3 Message and Data Rates
Message and data rates may apply. The rates and fees that apply are determined by your wireless carrier, not by Bullock Law Firm. Check your mobile plan for details. Bullock Law Firm is not responsible for any charges your carrier may impose.
4.4 How to Opt Out
You may cancel the text-message program at any time by replying STOP to any message you receive from us. After you send STOP, we will send a final confirmation message and you will no longer receive text messages from Bullock Law Firm through the program. If you want to rejoin, sign up as you did the first time, or reply START to a previous message thread.
Opting out of text messages does not opt you out of other communications you have authorized (for example, email, phone calls, or portal notifications) and does not terminate the attorney-client relationship if one exists.
4.5 How to Get Help
For help, reply HELP to any message you receive from us, or contact us at the phone number or email address listed in Section 14 below. You can also visit www.bullocklawyer.com for additional information.
4.6 Carriers and Delivery
Supported carriers include all major U.S. wireless carriers, including but not limited to AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, Sprint, Boost, U.S. Cellular, MetroPCS, and Cricket. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Message delivery is subject to the effective transmission from your wireless carrier and is not guaranteed by Bullock Law Firm or Twilio.
4.7 Confidentiality of SMS
SMS is not a secure or encrypted communication channel. Although we use commercially reasonable safeguards, you acknowledge that messages may be intercepted, delayed, or viewed by others with access to your device or your wireless account. Do not transmit highly sensitive information by text. For confidential exchanges, use the client portal or another secure method we make available.
4.8 Mobile Information Privacy
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Information about your text-message opt-in and consent will not be shared with any third party. All other categories of information are governed by our Privacy Policy.
5. Online Intake and Client Portal
5.1 Submission of Information
When you submit information through an intake form, contact form, document upload, or the client portal, you represent that the information is true and complete to the best of your knowledge and that you have the right to provide it. We will use that information to evaluate your inquiry, perform conflict checks, and—if engaged—provide legal services to you.
5.2 Limits on Pre-Engagement Information
Until a written engagement is signed, do not transmit privileged, confidential, or highly sensitive information through the intake forms, email, the portal, or text messages. Information you submit before engagement may be reviewed by intake staff and attorneys for the purpose of conflict checks and case evaluation only and is not protected by the attorney-client privilege.
5.3 Portal Account Security
If we issue you portal credentials, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your username and password and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. We may suspend or terminate access at any time to protect the integrity of the portal or to comply with our professional obligations.
5.4 Acceptable Use of Communications
You agree not to use the Services—including the portal, intake forms, email, and SMS—to: (a) transmit unlawful, threatening, harassing, defamatory, or obscene material; (b) impersonate any person or entity; (c) interfere with or disrupt the Services or the servers or networks connected to them; (d) attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Services; or (e) submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information.
6. Fees and Engagement
Use of the Services is free of charge. Legal fees, costs, retainers, and expenses are governed exclusively by the written engagement or fee agreement signed between you and Bullock Law Firm. Nothing on the website, in any informational text message, or in any pre-engagement communication is a quote, fee estimate, or guarantee of representation.
7. Intellectual Property
All content on www.bullocklawyer.com—including text, graphics, logos, photographs, video, audio, downloads, and software—is owned by or licensed to Bullock Law Firm and is protected by U.S. and international intellectual property laws. You may view, download, and print content from the Services for your personal, non-commercial use, provided you do not modify or remove any copyright or other proprietary notices. You may not reproduce, distribute, publicly display, create derivative works of, or commercially exploit any content without our prior written permission. The names, trademarks, and logos of Bullock Law Firm may not be used without prior written consent.
8. Third-Party Services and Links
The Services may contain links to, or integrate with, third-party websites and services, including but not limited to Twilio (SMS delivery), payment processors, document e-signature providers, video conferencing tools, and analytics providers. Bullock Law Firm does not control these third parties, does not endorse them, and is not responsible for their content, practices, or terms. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that third party’s terms and privacy policy.
9. Disclaimers
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Bullock Law Firm disclaims all warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, and uninterrupted or error-free operation. We do not warrant that the Services will be free of viruses, that defects will be corrected, or that the servers used to make the Services available are free of harmful components.
No outcome, prediction, or result discussed on the Services or in any communication should be construed as a guarantee. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Every legal matter is different and depends on the specific facts and applicable law.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, Bullock Law Firm, its attorneys, employees, agents, and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost data, or loss of goodwill, arising out of or relating to your use of the Services, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total cumulative liability arising out of or relating to the Services (other than legal fees governed by a separate written engagement agreement) will not exceed one hundred dollars ($100). Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so the foregoing limitations may not apply to you.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Bullock Law Firm and its attorneys, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your access to or use of the Services; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property or privacy right; or (d) any content or information you submit through the Services.
12. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to your use of the Services will be governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. The exclusive venue for any action permitted under these Terms (other than disputes governed by a separate written engagement agreement) will be the state or federal courts located in Campbell County, Tennessee, and you consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts.
13. Changes to These Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time. The revised Terms will be posted on www.bullocklawyer.com with an updated Effective Date. Your continued use of the Services after the Effective Date constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If a change materially affects your rights, we will use reasonable efforts to provide additional notice (for example, by email or portal notice).
14. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Services at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including suspected violation of these Terms. Sections 1, 2, 6 through 12, 14, and 16 will survive any termination.
15. Miscellaneous
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any written engagement agreement, constitute the entire agreement between you and Bullock Law Firm concerning the Services and supersede all prior agreements on that subject. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
