Terms & Conditions
Thank you for visiting martinpringle.com ("website"), the website of Martin, Pringle, Oliver, Wallace & Bauer, L.L.P. ("Martin Pringle" or "us" or "we"). Below is some very important information regarding our firm and the use of our website. Please take a moment to review this information before using the website, because these terms and conditions and our privacy policy affect your use of our website.
The information on this website does not constitute legal advice and does not create any attorney-client relationship between you and Martin Pringle. We will gladly discuss the possibility of representing you, but we must request that you first contact us so that we can ensure that any potential representation meets our internal requirements and to fulfill our important ethical obligation to check for conflicts of interest with our existing clients.
You are welcome to send us email, but any communication from you will be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary until you first become one of our clients. The law of Kansas says that you do not become our client merely by sending us an email. Therefore, you should not send us any confidential, proprietary or sensitive information because:
- your communication will not be treated as privileged or confidential until you are a client and
- we may represent or may have represented some party that you have a dispute with, and the law requires that we have to determine if there is a conflict of interest prior to accepting a new client.
Furthermore, you should be aware that any unencrypted communications sent via the internet, including email, are uncertain and insecure, and that there is no guarantee of delivery of a communication to the intended recipient. Thus, there is potential loss and unauthorized disclosure of any information sent to via the internet. Consequently, our questionnaires utilize SSL encryption (a common internet security protocol used by banking and commerce sites) to transmit information that we may ask you to use. If you are not comfortable with online submission, just ask us for an alternative and it can be provided.
Our attorneys practice in the state of Kansas and this website is controlled by Martin Pringle from its offices in Kansas. This website can be accessed in all 50 states and throughout the world.

Jurisdiction and venue for any matter related to this website shall be set exclusively in the federal or state courts located in Sedgwick County, Kansas, to the extent permitted by law. This agreement is effective and binding simply by your act of accessing this website.
We make no representation as to whether or not the contents of this website accurately reflect the laws of your jurisdiction or whether the viewing and use of such contents are legal or permissible in your jurisdiction or meet the ethics rules of your jurisdiction's Bar Association or other controlling body.
