Legal Strategy Session Terms and Conditions

Effective: July 17, 2026

30 Minute Legal Strategy Session

Thank you for scheduling a limited scope legal strategy session (the “Session”) with Rechtszaid Law, P.C. (“the Firm,” “we,” or “us”). By scheduling the Session, you agree to the following terms and conditions:

1. SCOPE OF SERVICES

This engagement is strictly limited to a single, one-time attorney consultation of up to thirty (30) minutes (the “Session”), in which we will provide legal analysis and strategic guidance regarding one specific matter or issue you identify at booking. We will not review any documents you provide to us ahead of the Session. This is a limited scope consultation, not a general or ongoing representation. The attorney-client relationship is confined to the Session and automatically terminates upon its conclusion, as described in Section 5.

2. SERVICES INCLUDED AND EXCLUDED

The following services are included in this engagement:

Up to thirty (30) minutes of live consultation time with a California-licensed attorney.
Verbal legal analysis and strategic guidance regarding the specific issue(s) you present during the Session, based on the information you provide.

The following services are expressly excluded from this engagement. If you need any of the following, it must be the subject of a separate, written engagement agreement:

Review, redlining, or drafting of any contract or other document.
Negotiation with any third party on your behalf, or any other communication with third parties.
Ongoing representation, follow-up consultation, email correspondence, or other work following the Session.
Any court appearance, filing, or formal legal proceeding of any kind.
Independent factual or legal investigation, or research beyond what is reasonably practicable within the Session itself.

If, during the Session, it becomes apparent that your matter requires drafting, negotiation, or fuller representation, we will identify that for you, and any expanded engagement will be discussed and documented separately in a new, written engagement letter. The Firm is under no obligation to accept any expanded engagement.

3. FEE, PAYMENT, SESSION TIMING, REFUNDS

The flat fee for the Session is USD $300.00 (the “Fee”), due and payable in full at the time of booking.

Payment of the Fee is a condition to us scheduling and holding the Session for you. The Session is reserved for you at a specific, pre-scheduled thirty (30) minute time. By setting up a Session, you are paying for us to set aside time to discuss your matter with you. The Firm holds that time exclusively for you and forgoes other work during that window. If you arrive late, the Session will end at the originally scheduled time; the Firm is not obligated to extend the Session to make up for time lost to a late arrival. Because the Firm reserved and made itself available for the full scheduled window regardless of when you arrive, the Fee is treated as earned in full once the scheduled Session time has passed, whether or not the full thirty (30) minutes was used. If you do not show up for your Session, the Fee is earned in full as payment for the attorney’s time that was set aside and not used for other business activities. If you contact us at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to your Session and seek to reschedule, we will as a courtesy reschedule your Session up to one (1) time. If you seek to reschedule with less than forty-eight (48) hours’ notice or more than one (1) time, we may in our sole discretion charge an additional fee. The parties agree that all other refunds are our sole discretion, as your scheduling a paid initial consultation will result in the attorney setting aside valuable time for you.

This Agreement, and the fee described above, covers only the services described in Section 2. It does not create any obligation on the part of the Firm to perform any service outside that scope.

4. BASIS AND LIMITATIONS OF ADVICE

Any analysis or guidance provided during the Session will be based solely on the information, documents, and facts you disclose to the Firm during the Session. The Firm will not independently verify the facts you provide, and has not conducted, and will not conduct an independent factual or legal investigation beyond what is reasonably practicable. Guidance given during a thirty (30) minute consultation session is necessarily general and preliminary in nature. It is not a substitute for full representation, comprehensive document review, or independent legal research, and should not be relied upon as a complete or final legal opinion on your matter.

5. TERMINATION OF ENGAGEMENT

This engagement automatically concludes at the end of the Session, without further action by either party, and the Firm will have no ongoing duty to you, including no duty to monitor developments in the law, to update any guidance provided, or to take any further action on your behalf, unless and until a new, separate written engagement agreement is signed by both parties.

6. NO GUARANTEE OF OUTCOME

No attorney can guarantee a particular outcome, and the Firm makes no such guarantee. Any views expressed during the Session reflect the Firm's professional judgment based on the limited information available at that time and are not a prediction or promise of any result.

7. CONFIDENTIALITY

Communications during the Session are protected by the attorney-client privilege and the Firm's duty of confidentiality, to the same extent as in any other attorney-client consultation, notwithstanding the limited scope of the engagement.

8. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Prior to the Session, the Firm will perform a reasonable conflicts check based on the information you provide at booking. By signing below, you represent that the information you have provided for that purpose is accurate and complete. Because this engagement is brief and limited, the Firm's conflicts clearance is necessarily based on that information alone, and the Firm reserves the right to decline or reschedule the Session if a conflict is identified.

9. RECORDING

California is a two-party consent state (Cal. Penal Code § 632). The Session will not be recorded by the Firm. If you wish to record the Session for your own notes, you must obtain the Firm's advance written consent.

10. GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California. Any provision of this Agreement that is found to be unenforceable will be severed, and the remainder of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

11. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Firm regarding the Session and supersedes any prior discussions or understandings, written or oral, regarding its subject matter. This Agreement may only be modified in a writing signed by both parties.

60 Minute Legal Strategy Session

1. SCOPE OF SERVICES

This engagement is strictly limited to a single, one-time attorney consultation of up to sixty (60) minutes (the “Session”), in which we will provide legal analysis and strategic guidance regarding one specific matter or issue you identify at booking.

The attorney-client relationship is confined to the Session and automatically terminates upon its conclusion, as described in Section 5.
