HIPAA Disclaimer
Legal Online Directory helps consumers connect with licensed attorneys. This page explains how HIPAA applies — and does not apply — to information you provide to us.
Legal Online Directory is not a law firm
Legal Online Directory is a lead generation service. We help consumers connect with licensed attorneys. We are not:
- A healthcare provider
- A legal engagement or law firm
- A healthcare clearinghouse
- A business associate of any of the above
Because we are not a law firm and do not provide legal representation, no attorney-client relationship, attorney-client privilege, or work-product protection is created by submitting information to Legal Online Directory.
What this means for you
- Do not share privileged case documents, confidential settlement figures, or detailed evidence with us. We only need enough to route you to an attorney.
- Information you do share (such as case type, jurisdiction, or household size) is protected under our Privacy Policy and applicable state privacy laws — not HIPAA.
- Once a licensed attorney or law firm collects your information for representation, their obligations may include HIPAA and other laws.
When attorney-client privilege applies
If you retain an attorney or law firm you connect with via Legal Online Directory, that firm's own privacy practices and the attorney-client privilege — not this notice — govern how your case information is handled.
