Terms of use.

This website may be considered attorney advertising under the rules of the District of Columbia Bar and the rules of other jurisdictions. The choice of a lawyer is an important decision and should not be based solely on advertisements.

The information on this website is provided by Bellementis PLLC for general informational purposes. It is not a solicitation for representation in any matter or jurisdiction in which Bellementis or its attorneys are not authorized to practice.

Nothing on this website is legal advice. Information published here is general in nature and may not apply to your specific facts. Do not act, or refrain from acting, on the basis of anything on this website without first consulting a qualified attorney.

Use of this website, transmission of a contact form, and receipt of an acknowledgement from us do not create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship with Bellementis is established only when the firm has completed a conflicts check and you and the firm have executed a written engagement letter.

Until an engagement letter is in place, do not send confidential, time-sensitive, or otherwise sensitive information through this website or by email to anyone at the firm. Information you send before an engagement letter is signed may not be protected by the attorney-client privilege or the work-product doctrine, and may be subject to disclosure.

Prior results, including descriptions of matters, representations, recognitions, or rankings, do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter. Every matter is different and outcomes depend on the specific facts, law, and circumstances involved.
