Privacy Policy
Attorneys, like other professionals who advise on personal financial matters, are required by a new federal law to inform their clients of their policies regarding privacy of client information. Attorneys have been, and continue to be, bound by professional standards of confidentiality that are even more stringent than those required by this new law. Therefore, we have always protected your right to privacy and do not take lightly the confidence you place in us.
In the course of providing our clients with legal advice, we may receive personal financial information about you either from you or with your authorization. If you are a current or former client of Litvak Beasley Wilson & Ball, LLP, you should know that all information that we receive about you is held in extreme confidence. It is not released to any person or entity outside of this law firm, except as agreed upon by you, or as required under applicable law.
We retain records relating to professional services that we provide so that we are better able to assist you with your needs and, in some cases, to comply with professional guidelines. In order to guard your non-public personal information, we maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with our professional standards. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will always be unable to defeat our security measures.

By using the Litvak Beasley Wilson & Ball, LLP website, you signify your acceptance of this privacy statement and our terms and conditions of use. Should you have additional questions or concerns regarding this privacy policy, please contact us using the phone number, contact form or mailing address listed on this website.
What personal information is collected through this website and how is it used?
We collect information about our users in three ways: directly from the user, from our Web server logs and through cookies. We use the information primarily to provide you with a personalized Internet experience that delivers the information, resources, and services that are most relevant and helpful to you. We don’t share any of the information you provide with others unless we say so in this Privacy Policy. At all times, we reserve the right to respond to and comply with law enforcement and the judicial process. This compliance with the judicial process includes, but is not limited to, the responses to subpoenas.
User-supplied information
If you fill out the “contact” form on this website, we will ask you to provide some personal information (such as e-mail address, name, phone number and state). We only require that you provide an e-mail address on the contact form. Please do not submit any confidential, proprietary, or sensitive personally identifiable information. Examples of “sensitive information” include your Social Security number; date of birth; driver license number; or credit card, bank account or other financial information. If you submit any sensitive information, you do so at your own risk and we will not be liable to you or responsible for the consequences of your submission.
Information that you provide to us through the contact form will be used so that we may respond to your inquiry. We may also use the information you provide to us to communicate with you in the future. If you do not wish to receive such communications, you may opt out (unsubscribe) as described below.

These services may collect information sent by your browser as part of a web page request, including your IP address or cookies. If these third-party services collect information, they do so anonymously and in the aggregate to provide information helpful to us such as website trends, without identifying individual visitors.
In addition, we may use services provided by third parties to display relevant content, products, services, and advertising to you. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to collect or receive information from this website and elsewhere on the internet. They may then use that information to provide measurement services so we can understand your interests and retarget advertisements based on your previous visits to this website.

Who has access to the information?
We will not sell, rent, or lease mailing lists or other user data to others, and we will not make your personal information available to any unaffiliated parties, except as follows:
- to agents, website vendors and/or contractors who may use it on our behalf or in connection with their relationship with us;
- if we are unable to assist with your matter, but know an unaffiliated attorney or firm that may be able to help you, we may refer you and share information you provided us with that party; and
- as required by law, in a matter of public safety or policy, as needed in connection with the transfer of our business assets (for example, if we are acquired by another firm or if we are liquidated during bankruptcy proceedings), or if we believe in good faith that sharing the data is necessary to protect our rights or property.
