Terms of Use
By using this website you accept the terms set out below, together with the acknowledgement shown when you first arrive.
1. Purpose of this website
This website exists to give general information about Civil Law Firm — where its chambers is, when it is open, who practises there, and what the areas of civil law it works in cover. It is not an advertisement, and it is not an invitation, inducement or solicitation of any kind to engage the firm or any of its members. Please read the Disclaimer, which forms part of these terms.
2. No legal advice
Nothing on this website is legal advice or an opinion on any matter. The pages describing areas of law state general positions and simplify deliberately; the law changes, and its application depends entirely on the facts and documents of a particular case. Do not act, or refrain from acting, on anything read here. Obtain advice on your own facts from an advocate you have engaged.
3. No advocate–client relationship
Reading this website, submitting the enquiry form, sending a WhatsApp message or telephoning the chambers does not by itself create an advocate–client relationship. Such a relationship arises only when the firm has considered the matter, confirmed that it is able to act, and expressly agreed to do so. Until then, information you send cannot be treated as a privileged or confidential communication, and you should not send documents or sensitive details.
4. Accuracy
The firm takes care that the information here is correct when published, but does not warrant that every page is current, complete or free from error. Any statement of law may have been superseded.
5. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, neither the firm nor any of its members or associates is liable for any loss or damage arising from use of, or reliance on, this website or any website it links to.
6. External links
This website links to services operated by others, including Google Maps and WhatsApp. The firm does not control those services and is not responsible for their content or their handling of your information.
7. Intellectual property
The text, design and layout of this website belong to Civil Law Firm. You may read, print and quote from it for your own information, with attribution. It may not be reproduced as part of another website or publication without written permission.
8. Governing law
Use of this website is governed by the laws of India, and the courts at Kolkata alone have jurisdiction in any matter concerning it.
9. Contact
Questions about these terms may be sent to the chambers using the details on the Contact page.
