Terms of Service
Last Updated: May 20, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
Welcome to the website of Lucas Legal Consulting, PLLC. ("Firm," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using our website, client portal, or any related services (collectively, the "Site"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Site.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and our Firm. We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms at any time without prior notice. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.
2. No Legal Advice & No Attorney-Client Relationship
2.1 Informational Purposes Only
All content on this Site—including articles, blog posts, FAQs, and descriptions of legal services—is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. Laws vary by jurisdiction and change over time. You should not act or refrain from acting based on any information on this Site without first seeking professional advice from a qualified attorney licensed in your jurisdiction.
2.2 No Attorney-Client Relationship
Use of this Site, submission of a contact form, or communication with us via email does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and our Firm.
An attorney-client relationship is formed only after:
We have conducted a conflict of interest check;
You and the Firm have signed a written engagement letter; and
You have received express written confirmation from us that we have agreed to represent you.
Until such a relationship is formally established:
Any information you provide to us via the Site is not protected by attorney-client privilege; and
We are not acting as your legal counsel.
2.3 No Guarantee of Results
Past case outcomes and client testimonials do not guarantee, predict, or warrant future results. Every legal matter is unique and must be evaluated on its own facts and applicable law.
3. Use of the Client Portal (Powered by MyCase)
If we have provided you with access to our client portal, which is powered by MyCase (a product of 8am, formerly AffiniPay), your use of the portal is subject to the following additional terms:
3.1 Portal Access
To access the portal, you must register for an account and receive our approval. You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and that all information you provide during registration is true, accurate, and complete.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials. You agree not to share your password or provide any other person with access to the portal using your credentials. If you learn of any unauthorized use of your account, you must notify us immediately at Katrina@llc-pllc.com .
3.2 Permitted Use
You agree to use the portal only for lawful purposes related to your legal matter with our Firm. You may not misuse the portal by:
Attempting to gain access to other users' accounts;
Scraping, monitoring, or copying any material within the portal that is not your information;
Uploading malicious code or interfering with the portal's functionality.
3.3 Mobile Communications
If you access the portal via a mobile device, data charges may apply and are your sole responsibility. If you provide us with your mobile phone number, you agree that we may contact that number using autodialed or prerecorded message calls or text messages only for case-related communications (e.g., appointment reminders, document notifications). We will not use autodialed or prerecorded calls or texts for marketing purposes without your prior express written consent.
To opt out of text messages, reply "STOP" to any message.
3.4 Electronic Notices (e-Notices)
By using the portal, you agree to receive all notices, communications, disclosures, and records regarding your case in electronic form ("e-Notices"). You acknowledge that you have the necessary system requirements to access, view, download, and retain e-Notices, including:
A computer or mobile device with internet connectivity;
An up-to-date web browser (last two major versions of Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge);
Access to the email address you used to register; and
Sufficient storage space or a printer to retain copies.
You are responsible for keeping your email address current. We will send e-Notices to the email address on file. If your email address changes, you must update it immediately through the portal or by contacting us.
You may withdraw consent to receive e-Notices, but doing so will result in the termination of your access to the portal.
4. Payment Services (LawPay)
We use LawPay (an 8am company) to process online payments. By making a payment through our portal or website, you agree to the following:
4.1 Authorization
When you provide a bank account or credit card as a payment method and authorize a payment, you:
Warrant that you have the authority to use that payment method; and
Authorize us (through LawPay) to debit or charge the scheduled payment amount from that payment method.
4.2 Payment Processing
Credit Card Payments: Processed at standard rates. You may have the right to dispute a transaction (chargeback). If a chargeback occurs, you remain responsible for paying any amount due under your engagement agreement with our Firm.
Bank Transfers (e-Checks): You warrant that sufficient funds are available in the linked bank account at the time of processing. Insufficient funds do not relieve you of your payment obligations.
Pay Later / Financing: If we offer financing options through third-party lenders such as Affirm, your use of those services is subject to the lender's separate terms and conditions. We receive full payment upfront; your repayment arrangement is solely with the lender.
4.3 PCI Compliance
We take payment security seriously. LawPay is PCI-DSS compliant. A non-compliance fee of up to $19.95 per month may be charged if PCI compliance validation is not completed within the required timeframe, though such fees are generally the responsibility of the Firm, not the client.
4.4 No Relief from Payment Obligations
Regardless of any technical issues with the payment portal, you remain responsible for making timely payments under your engagement agreement with our Firm. Termination of your portal access does not terminate your obligation to pay outstanding invoices.
5. Third-Party Services
Our Site and portal may contain links to third-party websites, services, or products (including LawPay, MyCase, and Affirm). These links are provided for your convenience only. We have no control over such third-party websites and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.
Your use of any third-party service is subject to that service's own terms and privacy policy. We encourage you to review those terms before using any third-party service.
6. Confidentiality & Security
6.1 No Guarantee of Internet Security
While we take reasonable measures to protect your information—including using encryption for data in transit and at rest—no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. Information sent to us via email or through the portal may not be secure and could be intercepted by third parties.
Please avoid sending sensitive information (e.g., social security numbers, medical records, financial account details) through unencrypted email or unsecured channels. Use the secure client portal for sensitive communications whenever possible.
6.2 Our Commitment to Confidentiality
Notwithstanding the risks above, we maintain strict professional and ethical obligations to protect client confidences. Once an attorney-client relationship is formally established, we will treat all communications related to the representation as confidential to the fullest extent permitted by law.
7. Intellectual Property
All content on this Site—including text, graphics, logos, images, and software—is our property or the property of our licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright and trademark laws.
You may download or print a single copy of any portion of the content solely for your personal, non-commercial use related to your legal matter. You may not:
Republish, distribute, or reproduce any content without our prior written permission;

Damages resulting from the unauthorized interception or use of information transmitted via the internet.
Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of these Terms shall not exceed the amount you have paid to us (if any) for services rendered during the six (6) months preceding the claim.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Lucas Legal Consulting, PLLC. , its attorneys, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:
Your use of the Site or portal in violation of these Terms;
Your violation of any applicable law or third-party rights;
Any dispute between you and a third-party service provider (e.g., LawPay, Affirm).

Violation of these Terms;
Non-payment of fees under your engagement agreement;
Completion of your legal matter.
Termination of portal access does not relieve you of any payment obligations or affect any rights or obligations that accrued prior to termination.
12. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
12.1 Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma , without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
12.2 Dispute Resolution – Mandatory Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site (except for fee disputes governed by your engagement agreement) shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules.
The arbitration shall be conducted in Tulsa, Oklahoma .
The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
You agree to waive your right to a jury trial and your right to participate in any class action or class-wide arbitration.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights or confidential information.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any signed engagement agreement between you and our Firm, constitute the entire agreement between you and Lucas Legal Consulting, PLLC. regarding your use of the Site and portal.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
