At Southwest Family Law LLC, protecting the privacy and confidentiality of our clients, prospective clients, former clients, and website visitors is one of our highest priorities.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and disclose information obtained through our website, consultations, legal representation, and communications with our office.
Our Commitment to Privacy
Southwest Family Law LLC does not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties. Any information you provide to our firm is used solely for legitimate business and legal purposes, including evaluating potential representation, providing legal services, communicating with clients, and complying with our legal and ethical obligations.
Our privacy practices apply to current clients, former clients, prospective clients, and visitors to our website. We require all attorneys, paralegals, staff members, contractors, and service providers who may have access to personal information to maintain strict confidentiality and to use such information only for authorized purposes.
Information We Collect
In the course of providing legal services, we may collect personal information that identifies you or relates to your legal matter. This information may include your name, address, telephone number, email address, date of birth, employment information, financial information, and other details relevant to your case. Depending on the nature of the representation, we may also collect information regarding assets, liabilities, income, insurance coverage, business interests, family relationships, and other matters necessary to provide effective legal counsel.
Information is typically obtained directly from you through consultations, telephone conversations, emails, text messages, intake forms, and documents that you voluntarily provide. In some circumstances, and when necessary to represent your interests, we may obtain information from courts, government agencies, employers, financial institutions, insurance companies, opposing parties, expert witnesses, investigators, or other third parties involved in your legal matter.
When you visit our website, certain technical information may also be collected automatically, including your IP address, browser type, device information, and website usage data. This information helps us improve the functionality, security, and performance of our website.
How We Use Information
The information we collect is used to evaluate potential legal representation, provide legal advice and services, communicate with clients, prepare legal documents, manage case files, schedule appointments, process payments, and fulfill our professional obligations. We may also use information to improve our website, enhance client service, and comply with legal, ethical, and regulatory requirements.

If you provide your mobile phone number and consent to receive text messages from Southwest Family Law LLC, we may use SMS communications to send appointment reminders, consultation confirmations, case-related updates, administrative notices, and other information relevant to our representation or services. Consent to receive SMS messages is not a condition of purchase or service.
SMS consent is not shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes. We do not sell, rent, or disclose mobile phone numbers collected for SMS communications to third parties for advertising or marketing purposes. Consumer and SMS registration data will not be transferred to any external organizations under any circumstances, except where required by law.
We maintain appropriate safeguards to protect consumer and SMS registration data from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or sharing. These measures are designed to help ensure that this data remains secure and is handled in a manner that prevents unauthorized disclosure to any external organization.
Disclosure of Information
Southwest Family Law LLC may share information when necessary to provide legal services or when disclosure is required by law. Such disclosures may include communications with courts, mediators, arbitrators, opposing counsel, expert witnesses, investigators, government agencies, financial institutions, insurance companies, and technology providers that assist us in securely managing client information and legal matters.
When we engage third-party service providers, we require them to maintain appropriate safeguards and confidentiality protections for any information entrusted to them. Information is disclosed only to the extent reasonably necessary to perform the services requested or required by law.
We may also disclose information in response to a subpoena, court order, legal process, ethical obligation, or when necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of our firm, our clients, or others.
Data Security
We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, misuse, loss, or alteration. These safeguards include secure office facilities, password-protected systems, network security measures, firewalls, antivirus software, secure cloud-based platforms, and restricted access to client files.
Access to personal information is limited to individuals who require such access in order to perform legal, administrative, or technical functions on behalf of the firm. We continually review our security practices and update them as appropriate to address evolving technology and security risks.
Attorney-Client Relationship
Contacting Southwest Family Law LLC through our website, email, telephone, social media, or text messaging does not create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship is established only after a written engagement agreement has been signed by both the client and the firm.
Because communications submitted through the website or other public channels may not be secure, we encourage prospective clients not to transmit confidential or sensitive information until an attorney-client relationship has been formally established.
Your Rights and Choices
You may contact us to request access to personal information maintained about you, to correct inaccurate information, or to inquire about our privacy practices. Any such requests will be handled in accordance with applicable laws and our professional obligations regarding client records and confidentiality.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
Southwest Family Law LLC reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of our website or services following the posting of changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
