Your continued use of the Site signifies your acceptance of any updates or modifications to these Terms, which the Firm may implement at its sole discretion. Updates will be effective upon posting, and your continued use of the Site following the posting of revised Terms constitutes your agreement to be bound by those changes. We recommend reviewing these Terms periodically to remain informed of your rights and obligations.
This Site is intended solely for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. By accessing or using the Site, you represent and warrant that you meet this minimum age requirement and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. If you are accessing or using the Site on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms. If you do not meet these requirements or lack authority, you are not authorized to use the Site. The Firm reserves all rights not expressly granted under these Terms.
Your use of this Site, including any communication with the Firm through online forms, email, text messaging, or other electronic means, does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Havenspire Law (Tarver Law, PLLC).

An attorney-client relationship with the Firm is only established through the mutual execution of a written engagement agreement, signed by both you and the Firm, confirming the scope and terms of representation. Until such an agreement is in place, any information you submit through the Site or other electronic means is not protected by the attorney-client privilege and should not be considered confidential. While the Firm exercises reasonable care to safeguard information you submit, including through the measures outlined in our Privacy Policy, submission of information via the Site does not create any obligation for the Firm to represent you or treat such information as privileged.
If you have a specific legal question, an urgent matter, or require formal legal representation, we strongly encourage you to contact us directly by phone. Reliance solely on electronic communications through this Site may not be sufficient to ensure timely legal assistance or protect your rights.
The content available on this Site, including articles, blog posts, newsletters, downloadable resources, and any other material, is provided solely for general informational and educational purposes. This content does not constitute legal advice and should not be relied upon as a substitute for seeking guidance from a qualified attorney who is familiar with the specific facts and circumstances of your legal matter. Laws and regulations vary between jurisdictions and are subject to change over time. The information presented on this Site may not reflect the most current legal developments or interpretations. You should not act or refrain from acting based on any information you encounter on this Site without first consulting with a licensed attorney who can provide advice tailored to your unique situation. If you have a specific legal question or need professional legal guidance, we encourage you to consult with an attorney licensed in your jurisdiction. If you believe the Firm may be of assistance, we invite you to contact us directly to discuss the possibility of representation.
