SMS Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2025
This SMS Policy describes how D & D Legal Services ("D & D Legal," "we," "us," or "our") handles text message communications with individuals who have consented to receive SMS messages from us.
1. Program Description
D & D Legal Services may send SMS (text message) communications to individuals who have expressly opted in to receive such messages through our contact form or other consent mechanisms. These messages are sent for the purpose of: • Following up on a submitted consultation inquiry. • Scheduling or confirming appointment details. • Providing relevant updates regarding your matter as a prospective or current client. Message frequency will vary depending on the nature of your inquiry and the stage of your engagement. Standard message and data rates may apply based on your mobile carrier plan.
2. How to Opt In
You may opt in to receive SMS messages from D & D Legal by checking the consent checkbox on our Contact page and submitting your inquiry. By doing so, you expressly consent to be contacted via text message at the phone number you provided. Your consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing any service or receiving legal representation.
3. How to Opt Out
You may opt out of receiving SMS messages from D & D Legal at any time by replying STOP to any message you receive from us. After texting STOP, you will receive a single confirmation message, and no further SMS messages will be sent to you from our system. You may also contact us directly through our Contact page to request removal from our messaging list.
4. Help
If you need assistance or have questions about our SMS program, reply HELP to any message you receive. You may also contact us directly through our Contact page.
5. Message and Data Rates
Standard message and data rates may apply to all SMS messages sent and received. These charges are imposed by your mobile carrier, not by D & D Legal. D & D Legal does not charge any fees for participating in this SMS program. Please review your mobile carrier's pricing plan if you have questions about applicable charges.
6. Supported Carriers
Our SMS program is supported by all major U.S. mobile carriers. Carrier support is not guaranteed for all carriers or in all regions. D & D Legal is not liable for delayed or undelivered messages due to carrier limitations or network conditions.
7. Privacy of SMS Communications
Information collected through our SMS program, including your mobile number and message content, is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We do not share your mobile number or message history with third parties for marketing purposes. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on how your personal information is protected.
8. No Legal Advice via SMS
SMS messages sent or received by D & D Legal are for scheduling and general communication purposes only. They do not constitute legal advice, and no attorney-client relationship is created through SMS correspondence. Legal advice is provided only through a formal engagement and by a licensed attorney.
9. Changes to This Policy
D & D Legal reserves the right to modify this SMS Policy at any time. We will notify users of material changes by updating the effective date at the top of this page. Continued participation in our SMS program following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
