The Site provides an online legal portal to give visitors a general understanding of the law and to provide an automated software solution to individuals who choose to prepare their own legal documents. Customer need not download or even license Lighthouse software. Lighthouse hosts its software as a backend service for customers when they create their own documents. The Site includes general information on commonly encountered legal issues. The Lighthouse Services also include a review of your answers for completeness, spelling, and for internal consistency of names, addresses and the like. At no time do we review your answers for legal sufficiency, draw legal conclusions, provide legal advice, opinions, or recommendations about your legal rights, remedies, defenses, options, selection of forms, or strategies, or apply the law to the facts of your particular situation. Lighthouse is not a law firm and may not perform services performed by an attorney. Lighthouse, its services, and its forms and templates are not a substitute for the advice or services of an attorney.

Lighthouse strives to keep its legal documents accurate, current, and up-to-date. However, because the law changes rapidly, Lighthouse cannot guarantee that all of the information on the Site or Applications is completely current. The law is different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and may be subject to interpretation by different courts. The law is a personal matter, and no general information or legal tool like the kind Lighthouse provides can fit every circumstance. Furthermore, the legal information contained on the Site and Applications is not legal advice and is not guaranteed to be correct, complete or up-to-date. Therefore, if you need legal advice for your specific problem, or if your specific problem is too complex to be addressed by our tools, you should consult a licensed attorney in your area.

From time to time, Lighthouse may perform certain attorney access services and introduce our visitors to attorneys through various methods, including but not limited to (i) third party attorney directory listings and (ii) third party limited scope agreements. At no time is an attorney-client relationship fostered or created with Lighthouse through the performance of any such services.

This Site and Applications are not intended to create any attorney-client relationship, and your use of Lighthouse does not and will not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Lighthouse. Instead, you are and will be representing yourself in any legal matter you undertake through Lighthouse’s legal document service.
