Privacy & Disclaimer Policies:
Disclaimer Policy
Kembell Woods & Martinsen LLP (“KWM”) provides this website for informational purposes only and this website is not intended to constitute advertising. It is designed to support the activities of KWM, a law firm having offices in Missouri and Kansas. The materials on this website are general, are not intended to be legal advice, and should not be relied upon or used without consulting a lawyer to consider your specific circumstances, possible changes to applicable laws, rules and regulations and other legal issues.
This website is intended to educate and inform the public to an awareness of legal needs and the importance in selecting appropriate legal counsel. Neither your receipt of information from this website, nor your use of this website to contact KWM or one of its lawyers creates an attorney-client relationship between you and KWM.
The choice of a lawyer is an important decision and should not be based solely upon advertisements. If you want us to represent you, please contact one of our attorneys directly. We would be pleased to consider having a KWM attorney represent you. If you are interested in having one of our attorneys represent you, we will provide you with additional information about our capabilities. As a matter of policy, KWM does not accept a new client without first investigating for possible conflicts of interest and obtaining a signed engagement letter. Please do not send us any proprietary or confidential information without first talking with one of our lawyers and receiving authorization to send us the information.
If you communicate through this website or via email, remember that it is not confidential. We may have prior client relationships or other potential conflicts that would prevent us from representing you or from treating your communications as confidential. Communication with the firm by email may not be secure and is subject to the risk of interception or access by other parties.
Any case summaries, reports of past results and individual lawyer biographies on this website could describe past matters handled for clients of KWM. These descriptions are meant only to provide information to the public about the activities and experience of our lawyers. While KWM is proud of the results we obtain for our clients, but you should know that past results do not guarantee future results and that every case is different and must be judged on its own merits.
In accordance with Internal Revenue Service requirements, this is to inform you that any information on this website that could be construed as United States tax advice is not written or intended to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed on this website. See IRS Circular 230.
This website lists areas in which lawyers of KWM practice. In so doing, no KWM lawyer makes a claim of “expertise,” “specialization” or “board certification.” The jurisdictions in which each of KWM’s lawyers are licensed to practice are noted on each lawyer’s biography on this website. The ability of any KWM lawyer to engage in any activities for a client outside of that lawyer’s state(s) of licensure is subject to state statutes, professional standards and court rules.
Privacy Policy
A fundamental principle in the attorney-client relationship is that the attorney must protect from disclosure confidential information relating to the representation of the client. Specifically, the Rules of Professional Conduct require an attorney shall not reveal confidential information relating to the representation of a client without the client’s consent or request. This prohibition on the disclosure of your confidential information is much more stringent that the federal law which requires us to send this notice to you. We continue to adhere to and be bound by the Rules of Professional Conduct prohibiting disclosure of your confidential information.
Nevertheless, we recognize that you may be concerned about our use and disclosure of your personal information. Your privacy is very important to us, and the following will inform you of the information that we, Kembell Woods & Martinsen LLP, may collect from you, and how it is used.
