Communication by E-mail. In order to contain costs, you are encouraged to limit the use of e-mail to the Family Professional directly or by way of a copy. In the event that you find it necessary to communicate with the Family Professional by e-mail, please ensure that such e- mails are copied to the other client. Should you request that information be transmitted by email or fax, you will be asked for your written consent to do so.
Communication by E-mail. Unless you notify us to the contrary, we assume that you consent to e-mail being used as a means of communication between us and you and between us and third parties. We will not, however, be liable for misdirection, interception, corruption or failure of any communication sent by e-mail, or for any computer virus transmitted by such means. You should always check that any electronic communication is free from such a virus. As you will be aware the Internet is neither private nor secure, nor are there service guarantees for correct message routing or promptness of delivery. If your message or documents are confidential or time critical, therefore, avoid relying on the Internet for sending them to me or receiving them from me.
Communication by E-mail. E-mail is an efficient form of communication that can be used to facilitate the transmission of information between the Attorney, the Client, and third parties. However, the use of e-mail poses risks to the confidentiality of information exchanged between the Attorney and Client, including, but not limited to, the Client’s identity and substance of the communication. Third parties may have access to the Client’s e-mail account and can access e-mail transmissions sent using its server. While the firm takes all reasonable steps to ensure the confidentiality of e-mail messages, it cannot guarantee such confidentiality. The pros and cons of e-mail use vary for each situation and each client. If you do not have access to a secure computer, or have any concerns about the confidentiality of your e-mail transmissions and receipts, please do not use e-mail to transmit information to the firm, and inform the firm of your concerns. The Client understands the benefits and risks of e-mail communication in the context of representation and (Circle which choice applies): □ agrees □ does not agree IMPORTANT DISCLOSURE: IF YOU ARE SIGNING AS POWER OF ATTORNEY READ THIS – The Client, as listed in section I of this agreement, has authorized you as an agent (Authorized Representative) to enter into this contract on their behalf.
