These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of polancofirm.com and any directories, listings, ebooks, or content we provide through this site (collectively, the “Site”).
By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
These Terms form an agreement between you and Polanco Firm Association, d/b/a “The Polanco Firm” (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
The Polanco Firm is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, legal representation, or attorney–client relationships.
All content on the Site, including the Pattern Library, the Pro Se Discipline Manual, directories, and guides, is for general informational and educational purposes only.
Nothing on the Site creates an attorney–client relationship between you and The Polanco Firm or any listed attorney or organization, or substitutes for advice from a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction.
The Site includes a directory of legal aid organizations, nonprofits, and government agencies (“Directory Listings”). Directory Listings are provided for informational purposes only, based on publicly available sources or information supplied by the listed organization, and are not guaranteed to be current, accurate, or complete.
We do not endorse, recommend, or certify any specific attorney, firm, organization, or agency, and we do not guarantee that any listed party will respond, accept your case, or achieve any outcome. Any contact you make with a listed organization is at your own initiative and risk.
The Pattern Library and Pro Se Discipline Manual are sold as digital downloads through our third-party checkout provider, Payhip. All sales of digital products are final; because these are downloadable files, we generally do not offer refunds once a purchase is completed, except where required by law.
Digital products are licensed for your personal, non-commercial use. You may not resell, redistribute, or publicly share the files.
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes. You agree not to use the Site to harass, abuse, or harm others; misrepresent your identity or affiliation; scrape or mine data at a scale beyond normal browsing; interfere with or disrupt the operation of the Site; or submit content that is unlawful, defamatory, fraudulent, or infringing.
Unless otherwise noted, the Site and its original content — including the Pattern Library, Pro Se Discipline Manual, and all guides — are owned by or licensed to The Polanco Firm and are protected by copyright and other laws. You may view content for personal, non-commercial use, but may not reproduce, distribute, or publicly display substantial portions without prior written permission.
The Site contains links to third-party websites and services, including our checkout and email providers. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of these third parties.
The Site and all content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of harmful components, and make no guarantees about the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any Directory Listings or other content.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Polanco Firm will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or damages resulting from your use of or reliance on the Site. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for use of the Site during the 3 months prior to the claim (often zero).
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless The Polanco Firm from claims arising out of your use of the Site, violation of these Terms, content you submit, or disputes with third parties.
We may update these Terms from time to time, revising the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York. Disputes shall be brought in state or federal courts located in New York.
