Thakurani has provided certain disclaimer template language that Legal & Medical Contributors may edit and incorporate in their answers.

Answers to Legal Questions

Content posted by Legal Contributors in response to legal questions is not intended to be legal advice or form an attorney-client relationship. If you believe you have a legal claim, contact an attorney licensed in your state (or country) immediately to discuss your options. Most state bar associations have services to aid you in finding an attorney. For example, California residents should visit How Can I Find and Hire the Right Lawyer?

If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your doctor or your local emergency number (911 in the United States) immediately.
