TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. What We Do.  RFL provides tools to create documents with instructions that may allow you to help represent yourself in your family law case in an affordable, and convenient way. These forms and the instructions are not legal advice about the law or your legal rights. If you have questions about your case and want specific legal advice, you will need to hire a lawyer on your own, or request to enter an attorney-client relationship with RFL. To do so, you will need to go through the conflict process and arrange a consulting session (for which services there are different terms). You can also obtain information about free or low cost representation through the Oregon State Bar website, your local court clerk's office and the Oregon Judicial Department. The informnation on the RFL website and portal is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not legal advice and is subject to change without  notice.

2. Our Relationship. Your purchase of forms and use of the RFL Portal does not create an attorney-client relationship with Rogue Family Law. Although RFL also is a law firm and does sometimes represent clients, you specifically understand and agree that you are not a client and that RFL has not given, and will not provide, you any legald advice. Therefore, there is no need for a "conflict search." You understand and agree that both you and your spouse, co-parent, or another family member or interested party may be accessing identical materials. If you would like to create an attorney-client relationship with RFL, you will first need to submit a conflict check identifying your spouse or co-parent (as well as other interested parties). If there is no conflict of interest, you will need to execute a separate engagement agreement with different terms. There would be no attorney-client relationship until this agreement is executed and any necessary retainer is paid.

3. Refund. If you are not satisfied with your purchase, or are having any problems using the site, please contact support@roguefamilylaw.com. You can get a refund within 48 hours of your purchase if you notify us during that time by emailing smalloy@roguefamilylaw.com.

4. Changes to these Rules. RFL may modify these terms from time to time by changing, adding, or removing terms. Any such changes will be posted so you can check for changes. If you continue to use the RFL Portal after changes are posted, it means you accept those changes.
