Rodd Firm Terms of Service

Effective Date: August 4, 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of https://www.roddfirm.com (the “Site”), and your phone, text message (SMS/MMS), and fax communications with The Rodd Firm (“The Rodd Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the Site, calling, texting, or sending a fax to The Rodd Firm, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or communicate with us through these channels.

1. Attorney Advertising

ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. This Site and the information on it are for general informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice. Prior results described on the Site, if any, do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter, as every case depends on its own facts and circumstances. The Rodd Firm is licensed to practice law in the State of Georgia. Any attorney identified on the Site who is not licensed in a particular jurisdiction where you are located will associate with, or refer your matter to, counsel licensed in that jurisdiction as appropriate.

2. No Attorney-Client Relationship

Your use of the Site, and any communication with The Rodd Firm by phone, text message, fax, email, or through a contact or intake form, does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and The Rodd Firm. An attorney-client relationship is formed only when The Rodd Firm has agreed in writing (such as through a signed engagement letter) to represent you in a specific matter. Until that happens, please do not send us any confidential or sensitive information that you expect us to protect, and do not rely on any information on the Site, or any response from us, as legal advice regarding your specific situation.

3. Use of the Site

You may use the Site for lawful, personal, non-commercial purposes related to seeking information about The Rodd Firm and its services. You agree not to:

  • Use the Site in any way that violates applicable law or these Terms;
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, our systems, or other users’ information;
  • Interfere with or disrupt the operation of the Site or its servers;
  • Scrape, harvest, or collect information from the Site using automated means without our consent; or
  • Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information through any form on the Site.

4. Communications with The Rodd Firm

4.1 Phone Calls

By providing a phone number to The Rodd Firm, you consent to receive calls from us regarding your inquiry or legal matter, including calls that may use an automated dialing system or prerecorded message (for example, appointment reminders).

4.2 Text Messaging (SMS) Terms and Conditions

The Rodd Firm’s text messaging program is offered to current and prospective clients for communications such as case status updates, appointment reminders, requests for documents, and responses to inquiries submitted by phone or through the Site.

  • Consent: By providing your mobile number to us — through the Site, by phone, by texting our office, or in person — you agree to receive text messages (SMS/MMS) from The Rodd Firm related to your inquiry or matter, which may be sent using automated technology. Consent is not a condition of receiving any service from The Rodd Firm.
  • Message frequency varies depending on the status of your inquiry or legal matter.
  • Message and data rates may apply. Charges are determined by your mobile carrier and plan.
  • Opt-out: Reply STOP to any text message to stop receiving messages. Reply HELP for assistance, or contact us using the information in Section 12.
  • Carrier disclaimer: Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Text messaging may not be available on all devices, carriers, or in all areas.
  • No sharing for marketing: Your mobile number and SMS opt-in consent will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

4.3 Fax Communications

If you send or receive faxes with The Rodd Firm, you acknowledge that fax transmissions are not a fully secure method of communication and that documents sent to an incorrect fax number may be received by an unintended recipient. Please confirm you are using our correct fax number, 229.516.1420, before sending confidential documents.
