TERMS OF USE

 10 June 2020  We are pleased that you are visiting our website www.corelegal.eu (hereinafter also ‘the website’ ). The website is owned and operated by Advokaadibüroo CORE Legal OÜ (Narva mnt 31, 10123 Tallinn, Republic of Estonia) (hereinafter ‘CORE’, ‘we’, ‘us’ ). In these terms of use, visitors to the website are referred to as ‘the visitor’, ‘you’, ‘the client’, or through other contextual references to the consumer of the content of the website. The terms of use of CORE’s website apply to your use of the content of the website at any time, in any manner, or in any form, such as when you browse our website, read the published materials, download materials, extract information from the website, make a purchase, or send us an enquiry via the website. As such, we kindly ask you to familiarise yourself with the content of these terms of use so that you will understand what you are agreeing to when using the website.

THE CONTENT OF THE WEBSITE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE THE PROVISION OF A LEGAL SERVICE

 

The information and materials available on the website (hereinafter ‘content’) have been published for informational, educational, and/or marketing purposes, in good faith and to express our views. This also applies to any content we have sent to you outside of our client relationship, regardless of whether the content is paid or free, freely available, or provided on-demand as a service. The provision of content published on the website or ordered through the website is not considered the provision of a legal service or the establishment of a client relationship between you and Law Firm CORE Legal OÜ. The basic terms for establishing a customer relationship are described below. Sending an enquiry to one of CORE’s attorneys does not establish an attorney-client relationship between you, but your enquiries are always protected by confidentiality. This means that your correspondence with CORE or CORE’s attorneys and the information disclosed in the course of your correspondence will be confidential, except as required by law. The content and materials published on the website are not intended to be used as a reliable source for making decisions that will have legal consequences for you or third parties. Sending an enquiry to us via the website does not guarantee that a client relationship will be established between us. The information published on the website about our services is informative and indicative; to find out the exact terms of each service, please contact us separately.

ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP

In order to establish an attorney-client relationship, a separate agreement is required between us. This agreement is usually concluded by the client signalling their requirements and briefly describing which service they want or need. If the client’s request concerns third parties, we will also ask for information about those parties to ensure that there is no conflict of interest in accepting the job. When establishing a client relationship, we will indicate whether we can accept the client/job as well as present the terms for the provision of the service (fee, deadline, service provider). Attorney services are generally provided at an hourly rate. Service solutions are provided at the level of the service solution model described on our website; more detailed terms for the provision of the service will be agreed separately with you. If you wish to receive an offer, please contact us. A client relationship is deemed established as soon as all essential preconditions have been met, including your acceptance of the terms of our offer, your submission of the necessary information and documents about you, and our confirmation of having received the latter. Client relationships are established privately by e-mail.
