General Legal Disclaimer

This website contains general information about Michael Pezza and his law practice, the Law Office of Michael A. Pezza Jr. also referred to here as the Firm, and his mediation practice, Boston Dispute Resolution Services, also referred to here as BDRS. (Michael Pezza, the Firm, and BDRS may be referred to here as "I," "We," or "Us," which terms shall include each, any, or all of them).

This website (including links to documents or other sites) is provided for information and reference only.  Nothing on this site is intended as legal advice. You should not use anything on this site as the basis for a decision on a legal matter without the assistance of legal counsel.

Links or references to other websites, social media, applications, organizations, or materials outside of this website do not constitute an endorsement of, or representation as to the accuracy or reliability of, such sites, organizations, or materials, or their opinions or other content.

Disclaimer as to Attorney-Client Relationship or Confidentiality

Merely accessing this site, sending email to Us, or otherwise communicating with Us, does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and the Firm or any attorney at the Firm. The Firm uses written engagement or scope letters to confirm client engagements, and sends  a closing letter when an engagement is ended.

If you are not an existing client of the Firm, please do not communicate any sensitive or confidential information to Us, as We cannot guarantee that We will be able to keep such information confidential. Retention of Michael as a mediator or provider of some other ADR service does not create an attorney-client relationship between Michael and any party or other participant in the mediation or other ADR process.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the confidentiality of information communicated by mediation or other ADR participants or their representatives will be protected as outlined on this website and as provided by law.
