What this site is

VictimsGuide.com is a public-interest educational project focused on Colorado auto insurance, crash recovery systems, transparency, accountability, and reform. It exists to provide educational information, commentary, public-interest analysis, and civic resources. It is not a law-firm marketing site, not a legal-services portal, and not an offer to provide legal representation. fileciteturn63file0

What site use does not create

Use of this site does not create an attorney-client relationship. Sending a message, submitting a story, uploading a document, requesting information, or otherwise contacting VictimsGuide.com does not create an attorney-client relationship, fiduciary duty, conflict-check obligation, or duty to provide legal advice, legal services, or individualized guidance. Any attorney-client relationship, if one were ever created, would require a separate express written agreement. fileciteturn63file0

Plain-language rule: Using the site, sending information, or interacting with a form does not make the project your lawyer. fileciteturn63file0
