By using the Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

3. No Attorney-Client Relationship

Submitting information through the Site — including through our Consultation form — does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Emergent or any of its attorneys. An attorney-client relationship is formed only through a signed engagement agreement. Please do not send confidential or time-sensitive information until such a relationship has been formally established, as information submitted before that point may not be treated as privileged or confidential.

The Site may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to:

  • Remember your preferences
  • Understand how visitors use the Site
  • Measure the effectiveness of our content and marketing
  • Support analytics and, where applicable, advertising services

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain features of the Site. Where required by law, we will request your consent before placing non-essential cookies.

5. How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share information with:

  • Service providers who help us operate the Site, host our data, or provide analytics, under confidentiality obligations consistent with this Policy
  • Legal and regulatory authorities, when required to comply with a subpoena, court order, or other legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Emergent, our clients, or others
  • Successors, in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of firm assets

6. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information submitted through the Site. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Privacy Rights (California Residents)

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), may give you the right to:

  • Request deletion of your personal information
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (Emergent does not sell personal information)
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising your privacy rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information in Section 10 below. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.

8. Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed to individuals under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

9. Changes to This Policy
