Terms of Use

 

Last Updated: October 27, 2026

Welcome to the website of Lanier Junell McBride, PLLC (“LJM,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of this website and any content, features, forms, or services made available through it (collectively, the “Website”).

By accessing or using this Website, you acknowledge that you have read and understand these Terms of Use and agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree with these Terms of Use, please do not use the Website.

  1. General Information Only; Not Legal Advice

The information provided on this Website is for general informational purposes only. Nothing on this Website constitutes, and should not be construed as, legal advice regarding any matter or circumstance.

Legal matters are fact-specific, and laws, regulations, court decisions, deadlines, settlement programs, and other legal requirements may change. You should not act or refrain from acting based upon information contained on this Website without obtaining legal advice regarding your circumstances from a qualified attorney.

Nothing on this Website is intended as a substitute for individualized legal advice.

  1. No Attorney-Client Relationship

Your use of this Website, including viewing its content, submitting information through a contact form, sending an email, calling LJM, or otherwise communicating with LJM, does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship between you and LJM or any of its attorneys.

An attorney-client relationship with LJM is established only when LJM has expressly agreed to represent you and the requirements for establishing that relationship have been satisfied, including execution of any required written representation or engagement agreement.

Please do not assume that LJM represents you unless and until LJM has expressly agreed to do so.

  1. Do Not Send Confidential or Time-Sensitive Information Before Representation Is Confirmed

You should not send confidential, privileged, highly sensitive, or time-sensitive information through this Website, by email, or through other unsolicited communications.

Information submitted before an attorney-client relationship has been established may not be protected by the attorney-client privilege or other confidentiality protections.

If you are contacting LJM regarding a potential claim, you should also be aware that contacting LJM does not stop, extend, or otherwise affect any statute of limitations, filing deadline, appeal deadline, administrative deadline, settlement deadline, or other time limitation that may apply to your matter.

You are responsible for protecting your legal rights and complying with applicable deadlines unless and until LJM expressly agrees to represent you concerning those matters.

  1. No Guarantee of Representation

Submitting information to LJM does not mean that LJM has agreed to investigate, accept, or pursue your matter.

LJM reserves the right to decline any potential representation. Among other considerations, representation may be affected by conflicts of interest, applicable deadlines, jurisdictional requirements, the circumstances of the potential claim, or other legal or professional considerations.

You should not forego seeking other legal counsel because you have contacted LJM unless LJM has specifically confirmed that it represents you.

  1. No Guarantee of Results

Descriptions of LJM's attorneys, experience, practice areas, cases, settlements, verdicts, representative matters, or other results are provided for informational purposes only.

Past results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter.

Every legal matter is different, and the outcome of any case or claim depends upon its particular facts, applicable law, available evidence, procedural circumstances, the decisions of courts, juries, arbitrators, settlement administrators or other decision-makers, and numerous other factors.

Nothing on this Website should be interpreted as a promise, guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome or value of any particular matter. 

  1. Attorney Advertising

This Website may constitute attorney advertising under the laws and professional rules of certain jurisdictions.

LJM does not seek to represent anyone based solely upon their viewing of this Website in a jurisdiction where the Website or its contents would not comply with applicable laws or professional-responsibility requirements.

Lawyer responsible for the content of this Website:
Deborah Levy, Esq.

Primary Practice Location:
Houston, Texas

  1. Practice Descriptions and Attorney Information

Information concerning LJM's attorneys, areas of practice, professional experience, qualifications, memberships, awards, recognitions, and representative matters is provided for informational purposes.

An attorney's inclusion on this Website does not necessarily mean that the attorney is licensed to practice law in every jurisdiction in which a Website visitor may reside or in which a legal matter may arise.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, descriptions of practice areas are not intended to state or imply certification or specialization.

  1. Case Results, Settlements, Verdicts and Testimonials

The Website may contain information concerning prior cases, settlements, verdicts, awards, client experiences, or other outcomes.

Such information is provided to describe LJM's experience and should not create an expectation that similar results can be obtained for another client or matter.

Results depend upon the unique facts and circumstances of each case. Any testimonial or endorsement reflects the experience or opinion of the individual providing it and does not constitute a guarantee of a particular result.

Texas Rule 7.01 prohibits lawyer communications that are false or misleading, including communications substantially likely to create unjustified expectations regarding results a lawyer can achieve.

  1. Contingent Fees and Case Expenses

LJM may accept certain matters on a contingent-fee basis. Any fee arrangement is governed exclusively by the written agreement applicable to the particular representation.

If the Website contains statements such as “No Fee Unless We Win,” “No Fee Unless We Recover,” or similar contingent-fee language, those statements should be read together with the applicable written fee agreement and any accompanying disclosures concerning responsibility for litigation or other case expenses.

No information on this Website modifies or supersedes the terms of a client's written agreement with LJM.

  1. Mass Tort, MDL and Settlement Program Information

The Website may provide information concerning mass-tort litigation, multidistrict litigation (“MDL”), settlement programs, claims processes, trusts, compensation programs, or other proceedings involving multiple claimants.

Such information is general in nature and should not be interpreted as a determination that any individual qualifies for a claim, settlement, recovery, benefit, or particular level of compensation.

Eligibility requirements, deadlines, settlement methodologies, compensation criteria, evidentiary requirements, court orders, and program procedures may change or may apply differently depending upon the circumstances of a particular claimant.

Information appearing on the Website does not supersede any court order, settlement agreement, claims-administration procedure, trust-distribution procedure, program document, or individual legal advice provided to an LJM client.

  1. Existing Clients

If you are currently represented by LJM, information appearing on this Website does not amend, replace, or supersede your engagement agreement, contingent-fee agreement, written communications from LJM, case-specific advice, court orders, settlement documents, or other documents governing your representation.

If there is a difference between general information on this Website and case-specific advice provided to you by your attorney, you should contact LJM regarding your particular matter.

  1. Electronic Communications

Communications through the Internet, including email and Website forms, may not always be secure. Although LJM may employ reasonable measures designed to protect information transmitted through its systems, LJM cannot guarantee the security or confidentiality of information transmitted through ordinary Internet communications.

You should use caution when transmitting sensitive personal, medical, financial, or other confidential information electronically.

Existing clients should use any secure communication method or client portal designated by LJM when requested to do so.

  1. Website Forms and Initial Claim Information

The Website may allow visitors to submit information regarding potential legal claims.

Submission of a form:

  • does not create an attorney-client relationship;
  • does not guarantee that LJM will accept or investigate the matter;
  • does not guarantee eligibility for any lawsuit, settlement, trust, or compensation program;
  • does not constitute the filing of a lawsuit or claim; and
  • does not suspend or extend any legal deadline.

LJM may need additional information or documentation before determining whether it is able to consider or accept a matter.

  1. Accuracy and Currency of Website Information

LJM endeavors to provide useful information, but it does not warrant that all Website content will always be complete, current, or error-free.

Legal developments can occur rapidly. Laws, regulations, court orders, filing deadlines, settlement programs, claims procedures, and other information described on the Website may change after content is published.

LJM may modify, remove, or update Website content at any time without notice.

  1. Third-Party Websites and Resources

The Website may contain links to websites, resources, services, or content maintained by third parties.

These links are provided for convenience or informational purposes. Unless expressly stated otherwise, the inclusion of a link does not constitute LJM's endorsement, sponsorship, approval, or guarantee of the third party or its content.

LJM does not control and is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites.

Your use of third-party websites is subject to their own terms and policies.

  1. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise indicated, the Website and its original content, including text, graphics, logos, design elements, photographs, videos, and other materials created for LJM, are owned by or licensed to LJM and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

You may view and print Website materials for your personal, noncommercial use. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, modify, sell, exploit, or create derivative works from Website content for commercial purposes without prior written permission from LJM, except as otherwise permitted by law.

Third-party names, trademarks, logos, and copyrighted materials remain the property of their respective owners.

  1. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Website:

  • for any unlawful or fraudulent purpose;
  • to interfere with the operation or security of the Website;
  • to attempt unauthorized access to the Website, its systems, or related networks;
  • to introduce malicious code or other harmful technology;
  • to impersonate another person or misrepresent your identity; or
  • to use automated means to obtain Website content in a manner that unreasonably interferes with Website operation or violates applicable law.

LJM may restrict access to the Website when reasonably necessary to protect the Website, LJM, its clients, or other users.

  1. Privacy

Information collected through the Website is also subject to LJM's Privacy Policy.

If there is a conflict between these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy concerning LJM's collection, use, or handling of personal information, the Privacy Policy will govern with respect to those privacy matters.

  1. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Website and its content are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE.”

LJM makes no warranty or representation, express or implied, regarding the operation, availability, completeness, accuracy, reliability, or suitability of the Website or its content for any particular purpose.

Nothing in this provision limits any professional obligation that LJM owes to an existing client under applicable law or rules of professional conduct.

  1. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, LJM and its attorneys, members, employees, and agents will not be liable for damages arising solely from your reliance upon general information presented on this Website or your inability to access or use the Website.

This provision does not limit liability that cannot lawfully be limited and does not alter or diminish any obligation LJM owes to an existing client under applicable law, an applicable written agreement, or rules of professional conduct.

  1. No Waiver of Attorney-Client Privilege

Nothing in these Terms of Use is intended to waive the attorney-client privilege, work-product protection, confidentiality obligation, or other legal protection applicable to information relating to an existing LJM client.

  1. Governing Law

These Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except to the extent another jurisdiction's laws are required to apply.

Nothing in these Terms of Use is intended to establish personal jurisdiction over LJM or its attorneys in a jurisdiction solely because this Website can be viewed there.

  1. Changes to These Terms

LJM may revise these Terms of Use from time to time. Any revised Terms will become effective when posted to the Website unless otherwise indicated.

The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page identifies the date of the most recent revision.

  1. Severability

If any provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.
