Lawyer Advertising. In some jurisdictions this web site may be considered lawyer advertising. The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Any listing of an attorney does not constitute a recommendation of the attorney. Before hiring any attorney, you should investigate the attorney's reputation and qualifications.

E-mail. Viewing this web site, or transmitting an e-mail message to Alaska Legal Services Corporation through this Web site, does not create an attorney-client relationship between Alaska Legal Services Corporation and you. Sending e-mail to an attorney mentioned in this site does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and the attorney. Unless you are already a client of the attorney, your e-mail may not be protected by the attorney-client privilege. Moreover, unless it is encrypted, e-mail can be intercepted by persons other than the recipient. Deadlines are extremely important in most legal matters. You may lose important legal rights if you do not hire an attorney immediately to advise you. Many people do not check their e-mail daily, and some attorneys do not respond to unsolicited e-mail from non-clients.
