No Guarantee of Results
Some of the case summaries, reports of past results and individual lawyer biographies on this website describe past matters handled for clients of the Firm. These descriptions are meant only to provide information to the public about the activities and experience of our lawyers. They are not intended as a guarantee that the same or similar results can be obtained in every matter undertaken by our lawyers. You must not assume that a similar result can be obtained in a legal matter of interest to you. The outcome of a particular matter can depend on a variety of factors—including the specific factual and legal circumstances, the ability of opposing counsel, and, often, unexpected developments beyond the control of any client or lawyer.
Privacy of Client Information
Every lawyer and employee of LOJAS is required by the Code of Professional Responsibility of his or her state to keep all matters related to the business of our clients and customers confidential. This confidentiality requirement extends to all personnel and precludes discussion of a client’s business with persons other than those with a need to know who are actively working for the Firm or who are duly authorized representatives of the client. In addition to the professional requirements of confidentiality, the Firm requires confidentiality of client information. We value the trust and confidence which our clients place in us.
