Privacy Policy
The Velzen Law Office PLLC, (or “Law Firm”) has developed a Privacy Policy to preserve the trust and confidence of visitors to this website and clients of the firm.
The Law Firm does not consider a visitor to this site to be a client. Visitors utilize this website for many reasons, primarily to better understand the law firm.
Although we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when it is required by law. For example, in a divorce case with minor children we use initials whenever we can. We also use ages, whenever we can, rather than birth dates. There are some forms which require actual names and birth dates. Those are primarily, if not exclusively, forms related to the Friend of the Court. That information is kept confidential by the Court
Please be advised that the attorney-client relationship may not protect your communications until you and the law firm have expressly agreed upon legal representation, almost always in the form of a signed Retainer Agreement.
A visitor to our website who has questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy should contact any member of the firm’s legal team.
Security & Information Utilization
This website takes every reasonable precaution to protect our users’ information. All of our users’ information is restricted to our offices, attorneys outside our firm with whom we consult (which is rare but it sometimes does occur), and vendors utilized by law firm for legal, marketing or research purposes.
Notification Of Changes
If we decide to change this Privacy Policy, we will post the changes on this website.
