General Terms – RightToLaw

1. RightToLaw is an independent platform that facilitates interaction between users and independent legal professionals (“Lawyers”). We do not provide legal services directly, nor do we control or influence the advice or assistance provided by any Lawyer listed on our platform. RightToLaw bears no responsibility—direct or indirect—for any legal services, guidance, or outcomes arising from your interactions with any Lawyer. In the event of any dispute, issue, or discrepancy related to the services rendered by a Lawyer, you agree that such matters are strictly between you and the respective Lawyer.
2. RightToLaw retains the right to publish free legal advice submitted and provided through the platform, both on the website and in external communications, for the purposes of public knowledge-sharing and legal awareness. However, in all such publications, user-identifiable information shall be excluded. We strongly advise that you do not include the names of any individuals, entities, or companies in your question, as doing so could potentially expose you to claims of defamation if the mentioned party objects.
3. Multiple Lawyers may respond to similar queries listed under the same legal category, and their responses may differ based on their individual interpretations, experience, or understanding. RightToLaw accepts no liability for varying or conflicting legal opinions and encourages users to seek additional legal advice or rely on their own judgment and discretion when acting upon any guidance received.
4. RightToLaw offers users the opportunity for online video consultations with Lawyers listed on the platform. Please note that such consultations are purely advisory and should not be considered a substitute for in-depth legal representation. Any interactions, including discussions about your legal issues, are strictly between you and the selected Lawyer. RightToLaw does not monitor, access, or store any video consultations and assumes no liability for the confidentiality, outcome, or quality of such interactions.

Disclaimer Regarding Legal Information and Relationships – RightToLaw

All materials and information available on the RightToLaw website are provided solely for general informational purposes. They may not reflect current legal developments, judgments, or updates, and they may vary based on jurisdiction-specific laws or interpretations. The content on the Site does not necessarily reflect the opinions of any Lawyer, Law Firm, their partners, clients, or affiliates listed on or using the platform.

RightToLaw does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or current validity of any information presented on the Site. Mere receipt of an email, message, or any communication via the Site does not create a Lawyer-client relationship between you and any Lawyer or with RightToLaw.

Any legal services or opinions you receive are rendered exclusively by the respective Lawyer or Law Firm. RightToLaw shall not be liable for any damages, losses, costs, or consequences arising from your use of such legal services, including but not limited to claims of malpractice or professional negligence.

You agree that any legal claim or dispute related to services received must be brought solely against the respective Lawyer or Law Firm. Under no circumstances shall RightToLaw or any of its affiliates, licensors, or partners be named or involved in such claims.

Whenever we use terms such as “your Lawyer,” “your Professional,” or “service provider” on RightToLaw, including within these Terms of Use, it is solely for reference. These terms refer to a Lawyer or professional with whom you have personally entered into an acknowledged, formal, and direct relationship. RightToLaw and its platform-listed professionals do not become your Lawyer or service provider unless and until you independently establish such a relationship with them.

Lawyers and Professionals using RightToLaw to provide online consultations (collectively “Lawyers”), and any affiliates or third-party service providers (collectively “Affiliates”), will serve you to the best of their ability, and solely in accordance with the professional relationship independently formed between you and them.

1. Using the RightToLaw Website

All users of the RightToLaw platform must be at least eighteen (18) years of age. In the case of users who are minors (under eighteen years), a parent or legal guardian must accept these Terms of Use on their behalf and oversee all interactions on the platform.

The User is solely responsible for ensuring that any information submitted on RightToLaw is accurate and complete. RightToLaw does not independently verify the information provided by users and assumes no responsibility for its accuracy, completeness, or usability. However, to ensure better service delivery, RightToLaw may request additional information as necessary.

Using RightToLaw services requires a basic understanding of the internet, and users are expected to possess the requisite digital literacy to navigate and utilize the platform effectively.

2. How Does It Work?

If you choose to submit a Free Question on RightToLaw, you will not be charged any fee. However, please note that responses to Free Questions may be delayed, and answering them does not establish a lawyer-client relationship. These questions and responses are publicly visible to all users of the platform.

The system automatically assigns Free Questions to available lawyers—users cannot choose which lawyer will respond. RightToLaw does not guarantee a response and reserves the right not to process Free Questions at times when lawyer availability is limited. You may receive communication via email, SMS, or phone regarding the status of your question.

Although RightToLaw provides a platform to increase visibility and accessibility for legal professionals, it is not an advertising service. Lawyer listings and search results are determined solely by user input and system algorithms, and not by any paid prioritization.

DISCLAIMER: RightToLaw does not endorse or recommend any specific legal professional listed or answering questions on the platform. We are not liable for any decision made or action taken by users based on the information available on the site.

3. Independence of Lawyers

The opinions, statements, and answers (collectively referred to as “consultations”) provided by lawyers via the RightToLaw platform represent the individual and independent views of those legal professionals. These do not reflect the views of RightToLaw, its affiliates, or any other organization with which the lawyer may be associated.

RightToLaw does not recommend, endorse, or guarantee any specific tests, legal professionals, products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on the platform or by any lawyer using it. The inclusion of any lawyer or professional in directories or listings on RightToLaw does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation, nor should such inclusion be construed as verification of credentials, qualifications, or competence. All such information is provided strictly on an “as-is” basis, and RightToLaw disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

Users understand and agree that lawyers participating on the RightToLaw platform are not employees, agents, or representatives of RightToLaw. Although lawyers are required to provide certain basic details about their professional qualifications—such as jurisdiction of practice and areas of expertise—RightToLaw does not independently verify this information and makes no representation as to its accuracy or completeness. No listing, content, or response on the platform should be interpreted as a recommendation, endorsement, or referral by RightToLaw.

Furthermore, lawyers on the platform do not pay any fee or compensation to RightToLaw for inclusion or for responding to questions posted by users.

While participating lawyers may make certain representations about their qualifications and standing within their respective jurisdictions, users are encouraged to perform their own due diligence and independently assess any lawyer’s competence or suitability prior to engaging them.

RightToLaw does not assert, represent, or warrant that any lawyer listed or responding on the platform provides services of a higher or superior quality than others. We strongly advise users to conduct independent evaluations before forming a professional relationship with any legal service provider.

In case of such conduct, you agree to pay liquidated damages of Rs.1,00,000 for each day the Site remains impaired, plus additional actual damages arising from the disruption. These damages are based on estimated loss of goodwill, downtime repair costs, and user trust. This clause does not limit RightToLaw’s right to pursue further legal remedies or injunctive relief.

Data Protection and Use Restrictions

You may not:

• collect or store personal data about other users;
• access the Site for purposes of data mining, scraping, or content extraction beyond personal use;

This clause reasonably estimates potential harm caused to RightToLaw and is not a waiver of our right to seek injunctive or equitable relief.

You may not manipulate metadata, headers, or identifiers to disguise the origin of content transmitted through the platform.

Conduct and Content Responsibility

You agree not to harm minors in any way or use the platform to upload, post, or share content that is harmful, unlawful, or offensive.

You acknowledge and agree that RightToLaw, or its authorized representatives, may—but are not obligated to—pre-screen, monitor, or review any content submitted, posted, or otherwise made available on the platform. RightToLaw reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse, modify, or remove any content that it determines violates these Terms of Use or is otherwise inappropriate, offensive, unlawful, or objectionable.

Nothing in this clause shall be construed as imposing an obligation on RightToLaw to monitor or control content, nor does it create any liability for content originating from users or third parties.

The decision to form a lawyer-client relationship is a significant and personal one that must be made solely between you and the lawyer. RightToLaw does not interfere with or influence this relationship and encourages you to consider seeking additional legal opinions where necessary, especially where statutory deadlines or time-sensitive legal obligations are involved.

By submitting a question, requesting consultation, or otherwise interacting through the RightToLaw platform, you explicitly authorize us and/or the lawyers using the platform to contact you via email or phone.
