PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS OF SERVICES & CONDITIONS OF USE (“this Agreement” or “Terms of Use”) CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE (“the Site” or “this Site”). The Site you (“You” or “Your”) are visiting is owned and managed by SueThem, which is a trade name for Z Law, LLC (collectively “SueThem”), which has offices located at 2345 York Road, Suite B-13, Timonium, MD 21093. The attorney responsible for the Site and its contents is Cory L. Zajdel. Any use of the Site is subject to this Agreement, Disclaimers, and Privacy Policy. This Agreement, Disclaimers, and Privacy Policy tell You about Your (and Our) rights under this Agreement, explain how We protect Your privacy, and make certain disclosures required by the law. By using the Site, You give Your assent to the terms of this Agreement. If You do not agree to these Terms of Use, You may not use the Site. Your agreement to these Terms of Use is a condition precedent to the formation of any attorney-client relationship between You and SueThem. SueThem (“We,” “Us,” or “Our”) has the right, in Our sole discretion, to modify, add, or remove any terms or conditions of this Agreement. SueThem will post changes to the Site and provide individual notice to You by email or through Your client portal. Your continuing use of the Site signifies Your acceptances of any such changes.
The law differs in every jurisdiction, and You should not rely on any opinion except that of an attorney You have retained, who has a professional duty to advise You after being fully informed of all the pertinent facts, and who is licensed in the applicable state, and is familiar with the applicable law. Internet subscribers and online readers should seek professional counsel about their legal rights and remedies. You should not act or refrain from acting on the basis of any information found on this Site. Any actions or decisions about Your legal rights should be based on the particular facts and circumstances of Your situation, and appropriate legal advice from an attorney. SueThem expressly disclaims all liability with respect to actions taken or not taken based upon any information or other contents of this Site.
Confidentiality is Not Guaranteed
Any information sent to SueThem via Internet e-mail or through the Site is not secure and is done on a non-confidential basis. SueThem respects the privacy of any person who contacts Our firm, and We will make reasonable efforts to keep information confidential internally, but because of the nature of Internet communications and the absence of an attorney-client relationship, We cannot promise or guarantee confidentiality.
By submitting information to Us, You agree that We may release Your contact information, excluding Your mobile number, and all information that may be submitted by You, to law firms with whom We partner expressing an interest in possibly pursuing Your potential claim(s), and You further agree and understand that such law firms may contact You directly should they have any interest in discussing Your potential claim(s) with You, unless You request in writing Your desire not to be contacted. By submitting information to Us, You also agree that We may use Your contact information to send You electronic newsletters, and information about other potential claims You may be interested in pursuing. In no event, however, shall We be obligated to release to You any information submitted to law firms with whom We partner, including contact names, but rather may or may not do so at Our sole discretion. Furthermore, in no event is any law firm (including SueThem) obligated to contact You with regard to Your potential claim(s), but rather may or may not do so at its sole discretion. By accepting the submission of Your information, We do not offer any advice on whether You may have a legal remedy for Your potential claim(s), and make no representation or guarantee that You will obtain satisfaction, justice, or compensation for Your potential claim(s), and We do not offer any opinion whatsoever concerning the merits of any potential claim You might have. If We are willing to represent You in the specific matter You have presented to SueThem, You will need to sign and return a written retainer agreement before SueThem can represent You in that specific matter. If either SueThem or You do not agree in writing to create an attorney-client relationship, none will exist. In the meantime, You are encouraged to seek and retain the advice of other counsel if You intend to pursue any potential claims in order to avoid having Your potential case barred by relevant statutes of limitation, statutes of repose, and/or other similar deadlines by which You must bring a lawsuit or lose the right to do so.

If You do engage in such conduct, the resulting damage will be hard to quantify as a dollar amount and thus You hereby agree to pay Us liquidated damages in the amount of $5,000 for each day that the Site is damaged until the Site is completely repaired.

This clause will not prohibit Us from seeking additional compensation if Your conduct injures Us in a way not expressly contemplated herein.

Third Party Sites
This Site may contain links to third party sites for the convenience of Our users. We do not endorse any of these third-party sites and do not imply any association between Us and those sites, other than as specifically set forth herein. We do not control these third-party sites and cannot represent that their policies and practices will be consistent with these Terms of Use, Disclaimers, and Privacy Policy. If You use links to access and use such sites, You do so at Your own risk. We are not responsible for the content or availability of any linked sites. These links are provided only as a convenience to the recipient.
Relationship Among Lawyers
SueThem lawyers are licensed to practice law only within the states of Maryland, California, Texas, Michigan, Washington State, Illinois, and the District of Columbia, but We may associate on certain types of cases with lawyers licensed or otherwise admitted to practice law throughout the United States (the “Attorney Group”). Attorneys and law firms associated by SueThem are determined by SueThem, in the professional judgment of its principal, to be experienced in and qualified to handle the litigation or arbitration matters for which they are associated.
Initial consultations on a particular matter are provided free of cost, and upon agreement with the potential client and in the sole discretion of SueThem. SueThem will enter into a contract for legal services with the potential client which describes in writing the fee charged for a particular engagement, as well as other terms of the representation, including disclosure that other attorneys or law firms may be associated to participate in the representation. If known, the identity of any affiliated attorney or law firm that will have a role in the representation will be included in the contract. Otherwise, in the event that counsel is associated on a particular matter, the client will be informed and any consent required by applicable rules of professional conduct will be obtained.
Inquiries made through this Site are typically responded to by SueThem. We reserve the right to not respond to inquiries on this Site and may, at Our discretion, direct inquiries to other attorneys or law firms without an initial response. In such instances, SueThem makes no representation regarding the ability of the responding attorney to represent the potential client in accordance with applicable standards of care. SueThem may or may not decide to associate as counsel on such cases.
Waiver and Severability Terms
The laws of each state are different. This Site may contain information about general or common rules that apply in some states. This Site may also contain information about verdicts or settlements in past cases. You cannot assume that the same rules apply, or that the same result would occur, in Your state or any particular state or case.
Statutes of limitations are especially important. Every state has laws called the “statute of limitations” which set a deadline to file a lawsuit or a claim. A lawsuit or claim filed too late may be thrown out, regardless of the defendant’s fault or the severity of the injuries. Some states have a three-year period for negligence injury claims; the time period in other states may be longer or shorter. Because investigation and research are needed to identify all possible defendants and theories of recovery, if You have an accident or injury, You should consult a lawyer as soon as possible.
Legal and Ethical Requirements
SueThem has tried to comply with all legal and ethical requirements in compiling this Site. We welcome comments about Our compliance with applicable rules and will update the Site as warranted, upon learning of any new or different requirements. We only want to represent clients based on their review of this Site if it complies with all legal or ethical requirements.
To the extent that the professional responsibility rules of any jurisdiction require Us to designate a principal office or an attorney responsible for this Site, SueThem, which is a trade name for Z Law, LLC, designates its office in Z Law, LLC, 2345 York Road, Suite B-13, Timonium, MD 21093 and its attorney Cory L. Zajdel, Esq.
Honors, Accolades, and Recognition
To the extent that any display of honors, accolades, or recognition made on this Site are considered attorney advertising, no aspect of such advertisement has been approved or sanctioned by the supreme courts or accrediting organizations of any state. The inclusion of an honor, accolade, or recognition is not intended to compare the services of SueThem or its attorneys with any other attorney or law firm, nor is it intended to create an expectation of results that can be obtained in a particular matter. Any honor, accolade, or recognition that uses the term “super,” “best,” “superior,” “leading,” “top-rated,” or the like, only means that the attorney has been included in a list containing that term. It is not intended to convey any superlative ability of the attorney recognized.
The Sites of the organizations conferring the honor, accolade, or recognition may be linked to from the badge or logo displayed on this Site, and You are encouraged to visit those Sites to learn more about the process by which the SueThem attorney was selected. Where the logo of a publication is listed as featuring SueThem or one of its attorneys, You are encouraged to perform an author search or other type of search on that Site for the information communicated by or about SueThem or the SueThem attorney(s) on that Site. Alternatively, information about honors, accolades, and recognition can be provided upon request.
Disclosures Regarding Attorney Advertising
Some jurisdictions may consider the Site to be a form of advertising for legal services and as such may require specific disclosures. Please read the following carefully:
THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT. The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability, and should not rely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. Hiring a lawyer is an important process that should not be based solely upon advertisements.
The attorney responsible for the content of this Site is Cory L. Zajdel, Esq., of Z Law, LLC, 2345 York Road, Suite B-13, Timonium, MD 21093. The attorneys of Z Law, LLC are licensed to practice law in Maryland, California, Texas, Michigan, Washington State, Illinois, and the District of Columbia.
SueThem does not operate as a lawyer-advertising cooperative, lawyer referral service, prepaid legal insurance provider, or similar organization the business or activities of which include the referral of customers, members, or beneficiaries to lawyers for the performance of fee-generating legal services or the payment for or provision of legal services to the customers, members, or beneficiaries in matters for which they do not bear ultimate responsibility. While SueThem maintains joint responsibility for and participates in cases obtained as a result of advertising on the Site, such cases may be referred to other attorneys for principal responsibility and participation.
FREE BACKGROUND INFORMATION AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST
Before You decide to hire SueThem, ask Us to send You free written information about Our qualifications and experience. Additional information about the lawyers or firms may also be obtained by contacting the Bar Association in the State in which such lawyers or law firms are licensed. No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers. Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical, and professional associations and societies of law or fields of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist, expert, authority, or is certified in a particular field of law, nor do such memberships or licenses mean that such a lawyer is more expert or competent than any other lawyer.
A description or indication of limitation of practice does not mean that any agency or board has certified such lawyer as a specialist, expert, or authority in an indicated field of law practice, nor does it mean that such lawyer is more expert or competent than any other lawyer. We urge all potential clients to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered.
Except where otherwise indicated, neither SueThem nor any of the lawyers or law firms in the Attorney Group are certified by the Florida Bar Board of Legal Specialization and Education, the Texas Board of Legal Specialization (“Not Certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization”), or any other entity or body. The fact that certain attorneys or firms concentrate their practices to plaintiffs’ class actions, labor & employment, or consumer claims (or any other field) is not meant to imply that they have gained any specific type of certification in these areas. Indeed, many states do not recognize certifications of specialties in the practice of law and explicitly state that any such certificate, award, or recognition is not a requirement to practice law in those states.
Because some material on this Site may be found to constitute attorney advertising, and because this Site may be viewed from anywhere in the United States, particular disclosures may be required by the rules of some states. To the extent applicable, SueThem adopts and makes the following disclosures:
Alabama: No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.
Alaska: The Alaska Bar Association does not accredit or endorse certifying organizations.
Arizona: ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. No representation is made promising or guaranteeing a particular outcome or result. Any attorneys claiming certification in an area of law are certified by the Arizona Board of Legal Specialization.
Colorado: Colorado does not certify attorneys as specialists in any field.
Florida: The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Before You decide, ask Us to send You free written information about Our qualifications and experience.
Hawaii: The Supreme Court of Hawaii grants Hawaii certification only to lawyers in good standing who have successfully completed a specialty program accredited by the American Bar Association.
Illinois: The Supreme Court of Illinois does not recognize certifications of specialties in the practice of law and that the certificate, award or recognition is not a requirement to practice law in Illinois.
Iowa: The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. This disclosure is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC: Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical and professional associations and societies of law or field of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist or expert in a field of law, nor do they mean that such a lawyer is necessarily any more expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered. This notice is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
Kentucky and Oregon: THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT.
Massachusetts: If a Massachusetts lawyer holds himself or herself out as “certified” in a particular service, field or area of law by a non-governmental body, the certifying organization is a private organization, whose standards for certification are not regulated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Mississippi: The Mississippi Supreme Court advises that a decision on legal services is important and should not be based solely on advertisements.
Missouri: ADVERTISING MATERIAL: COMMERCIAL SOLICITATIONS ARE PERMITTED BY THE MISSOURI RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT BUT ARE NEITHER SUBMITTED TO NOR APPROVED BY THE MISSOURI BAR OR THE SUPREME COURT OF MISSOURI. Neither the Supreme Court of Missouri nor the Missouri Bar reviews or approves certifying organizations or specialist designations.
Nevada: Neither the state bar of Nevada nor any agency of the State Bar has certified any lawyer identified here as a specialist or as an expert. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability.
New Jersey: ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT — NOT A REFERRAL SERVICE. Before making Your choice of an attorney, You should give this matter careful thought. The selection of an attorney is an important decision. Any certification as a specialist, or any certification in a field of practice, that does not state that such certification has been granted by the Supreme Court of New Jersey or by an organization that has been approved by the American Bar Association, indicates that the certifying organization has not been approved, or has been denied approval, by the Supreme Court of New Jersey and the American Bar Association.
New Mexico: LAWYER ADVERTISEMENT. Any certification by an organization other than the New Mexico Board of Legal Specialization does not constitute recognition by the New Mexico Board of Legal Specialization, unless the lawyer is also recognized by the board as a specialist in that area of law.
New York: ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
Rhode Island: The Rhode Island Supreme Court licenses all lawyers in the general practice of law. The court does not license or certify any lawyer as an expert or specialist in any field of practice.
Tennessee: None of the attorneys in this firm are certified as a Civil Trial, Criminal Trial, Business Bankruptcy, Consumer Bankruptcy, Creditor’s Rights, Medical Malpractice, Legal Malpractice, Accounting Malpractice, Estate Planning or Elder Law specialist by the Tennessee Commission on Continuing Legal Education and Specialization. Certification as a specialist in all other listed areas is not currently available in Tennessee.
Texas: Unless otherwise stated, Our attorneys claiming certification in an area of law are not certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
Washington: The Supreme Court of Washington does not recognize certification of specialties in the practice of law and that the certificate, award, or recognition is not a requirement to practice law in the State of Washington.
Wyoming: The Wyoming State Bar does not certify any lawyer as a specialist or expert. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability, and not rely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise.
