Service Providers

We may use third-party providers to help operate the website and firm systems. These may include website hosting providers, email providers, scheduling platforms, payment processors, document management tools, cloud storage providers, analytics services, or other business support services.

These providers may receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform their services.

We may disclose information when necessary to protect the rights, property, safety, security, or legal interests of the firm, our clients, website users, or others.

Confidentiality and Attorney-Client Privilege

Submitting information through this website does not create an attorney-client relationship.

An attorney-client relationship is formed only after C. Cadogan and Associates, P.C. has reviewed your matter, completed any required conflict check, agreed in writing to provide services, and entered into a written engagement agreement with you.

Information submitted before an attorney-client relationship is established may not be protected by attorney-client privilege. We handle inquiries with care, but you should not submit confidential, sensitive, or urgent information through the website unless the firm has agreed to represent or assist you.

For more information, please review our Website Disclaimer and Terms of Use.

Data Security

We use reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures to protect information submitted to us.

These measures may include secure website tools, password-protected systems, access controls, encrypted communications where available, and standard business security practices.

However, no method of internet transmission, email communication, website submission, or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to:

Respond to inquiries
Provide services
Maintain business and client records
Comply with legal, professional, ethical, accounting, and record-keeping obligations
Resolve disputes
Enforce agreements
Protect the firm’s legal rights

Client and matter-related records may be retained in accordance with applicable state law, professional responsibility rules and firm record-retention practices.

If you contact the firm but do not become a client, we may still retain your inquiry information for a reasonable period for conflict-checking, administrative, legal, or professional responsibility purposes.

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include the right to:

Ask what personal information we hold about you
Request correction of inaccurate information
Request deletion of certain information
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
Limit certain uses of your information
Ask questions about how your information is used

These rights may be subject to legal, ethical, professional, record-keeping, or conflict-checking obligations that require the firm to retain certain information.

Email Communications

If you contact us by email, we may respond by email unless you request another method of communication.

Email is convenient but may not be fully secure. Do not send highly sensitive, confidential, or urgent information by email unless the firm has agreed to receive it and you accept the risks of electronic communication.

Online Payments and Third-Party Platforms

If the website uses online payment tools, scheduling platforms, intake systems, or other third-party services, those providers may collect and process information according to their own privacy policies and terms.

C. Cadogan and Associates, P.C. is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party platforms.

Children

This website is intended for adults.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16 through the website. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it, subject to any applicable legal or professional obligations.

Third-Party Links

This website may contain links to third-party websites, including courts, government agencies, benefit programs, educational institutions, professional organizations, payment platforms, scheduling tools, review websites, or other resources.

Those websites have their own privacy policies and practices. C. Cadogan and Associates, P.C. does not control and is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of third-party websites.

Cross-Border and Out-of-Jurisdiction Users

C. Cadogan and Associates, P.C. may receive inquiries from individuals located outside New York, including Canada and other jurisdictions.

By using this website or submitting information to us, you understand that your information may be processed and stored in the United States or through service providers located in other jurisdictions.
