Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 4, 2026
VerHagen Law, PLLC (“VerHagen Law,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information obtained through our website, online forms, advertising platforms, and other communications with the firm.
Information We Collect
We may collect information that you voluntarily provide to us, including your name, email address, telephone number, location, the general nature of your legal matter, and other information you choose to provide.
We may collect this information when you contact us through our website, request a consultation, submit a form through Facebook, Instagram, Meta, or another advertising platform, call or email the firm, or otherwise communicate with us.
Our website and third-party service providers may also automatically collect certain technical information, such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, and information about how visitors interact with the website.
How We Use Your Information
We may use information we collect to:
- Respond to inquiries and requests for consultations;
- Contact you regarding legal services you have expressed an interest in;
- Conduct preliminary conflict checks;
- Evaluate whether VerHagen Law may be able to assist with your matter;
- Operate, maintain, secure, and improve our website and services;
- Measure the effectiveness of our advertising and communications;
- Comply with legal, ethical, and professional obligations; and
- Protect the rights, property, and security of the firm and others.
Information Submitted Through Advertising Platforms
If you submit information through a lead form or advertisement on Facebook, Instagram, Meta, or another third-party platform, the information may be collected by both that platform and VerHagen Law. The platform's collection and use of your information is governed by its own privacy policies and terms.
Information received by VerHagen Law through these forms will be used primarily to respond to your inquiry, evaluate your request for legal services, and communicate with you regarding your inquiry.
Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising Technologies
Our website may use cookies, analytics services, pixels, or similar technologies to understand website traffic, improve the website, measure advertising performance, and determine how visitors interact with our content.
Third-party advertising and analytics providers may collect information in accordance with their own privacy policies. Depending on the technologies implemented on the website, these may include services provided by companies such as Meta or Google.
How We Share Information
VerHagen Law does not sell your personal information.
We may disclose information to service providers that assist us in operating our website, managing communications, processing forms, providing technology services, analyzing website performance, or conducting advertising. These providers may access information only as necessary to perform services on our behalf.
We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, professional obligations, or when reasonably necessary to protect the firm, our clients, or others.
Attorney-Client Relationship and Confidential Information
Submitting information through this website, an online form, a social-media platform, email, or an advertisement does not create an attorney-client relationship with VerHagen Law.
An attorney-client relationship is established only after appropriate conflict checks have been completed and a written engagement agreement has been executed where required.
Until an attorney-client relationship has been established, please do not submit confidential, privileged, highly sensitive, or time-sensitive information through online forms or advertising platforms.
Data Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information in our possession. However, no website, electronic communication, or internet-based transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Data Retention
We may retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to inquiries, maintain business and legal records, comply with professional and legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect the firm's legitimate interests.
Your Choices
You may contact us to request that we update or correct personal information you previously provided. You may also ask us to stop sending marketing communications to you.
Certain information may be retained when necessary to satisfy legal, ethical, recordkeeping, conflict-check, or other professional obligations.
Third-Party Websites
Our website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties. VerHagen Law is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party services.
Children's Privacy
Our website and legal services are not directed toward children for purposes of collecting personal information online. We do not knowingly solicit personal information directly from children through the website for marketing purposes.
