Terms of Use
Last updated: August 22, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of carrizogloballaw.com and the webpages, features, forms, communications tools, and other content made available through it (collectively, the “Site”).
The Site is operated by Carrizo Global Law PLLC (“Carrizo Global Law,” the “Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using the Site, you acknowledge these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, please discontinue use of the Site.
These Terms govern use of the Site only. They do not constitute an engagement agreement and do not replace any agreement governing legal services provided by the Firm.
1. General Information; No Legal Advice
Content made available through the Site including: webpages, articles, Insights, videos, downloadable materials, FAQs, forms, chat features, automated communications, and other resources, is provided for general informational and educational purposes only.
Site content is not legal advice, tax advice for any particular person or transaction, or a substitute for advice from qualified legal counsel based upon the facts and circumstances of a particular matter.
Laws, regulations, administrative guidance, government procedures, and judicial decisions may change. We do not represent that every item of Site content reflects the most recent legal development applicable to a particular situation.
You should not act, refrain from acting, or make legal decisions solely in reliance on information obtained through the Site.
2. No Attorney-Client Relationship
Accessing or using the Site, submitting a form, sending an email or message, using chat or other communication features, scheduling or attending a consultation, making a payment, or receiving a communication from the Firm does not, by itself, create an attorney-client relationship.
Carrizo Global Law undertakes legal representation only after completing applicable conflict-of-interest and matter-acceptance procedures and expressly agreeing to the representation, ordinarily through a written engagement agreement.
Unless the Firm has expressly undertaken representation, you should not rely on Carrizo Global Law to monitor deadlines, preserve claims or rights, file documents, respond to government notices, appear in proceedings, or otherwise act on your behalf.
3. Prospective Clients and Confidential Information
Please do not submit confidential, privileged, highly sensitive, or strategically significant information through a general website form, unsolicited email, chat, or social-media message unless the Firm has requested that information.
Initial communications should ordinarily be limited to information reasonably necessary for the Firm to understand the general nature of the matter and conduct preliminary intake and conflict review.
Certain communications with prospective clients may be subject to duties imposed by applicable professional-conduct rules even if no attorney-client relationship ultimately results.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to waive, limit, or reduce any duty that Carrizo Global Law or its attorneys are required to observe under applicable law or rules of professional conduct.
4. Attorney Advertising and No Guarantee of Results
The Site and certain communications made through it may constitute attorney advertising under applicable professional-conduct rules.
Descriptions of services, strategies, experience, representative matters, prior results, case examples, testimonials, or other information do not guarantee, warrant, or predict the outcome of any future matter.
Every legal matter depends upon its particular facts, applicable law, evidence, procedural posture, jurisdiction, decision-maker, and other circumstances.
No particular result is promised or guaranteed.
5. Jurisdiction and Scope of Practice
Carrizo Global Law PLLC is a law firm based in Washington, D.C.
The Firm provides legal services involving District of Columbia law and federal-law matters, including U.S. immigration and federal tax matters, to the extent permitted by applicable law, court and agency rules, and professional-conduct requirements.
Business, corporate, tax, trusts and estates, cross-border, and other matters may implicate the laws of jurisdictions in which Carrizo Global Law or its attorneys are not admitted to practice. Depending upon the matter, the Firm may limit the scope of its services, decline representation, or coordinate with appropriately qualified counsel in another U.S. or foreign jurisdiction.
The availability of the Site in a particular location does not constitute an offer or solicitation to provide legal services where doing so would violate applicable law or professional-practice requirements.
6. Cross-Border and Foreign-Law Information
References to international, foreign, or cross-border matters do not represent that Carrizo Global Law practices the law of every jurisdiction discussed on the Site.
Matters involving foreign jurisdictions may require assistance from attorneys, accountants, tax professionals, or other advisers qualified in those jurisdictions. Their services may be provided under separate professional relationships or engagements.
7. Automated Features, Chat, and Electronic Communications
The Site may use automated systems, chat technology, scheduling tools, intake systems, artificial-intelligence-assisted technology, or other digital tools to facilitate communication, collect preliminary information, route inquiries, or provide general information.
Unless expressly identified as legal advice provided or approved by an attorney within an established attorney-client relationship, information generated through such systems is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as individualized attorney review.
Automated or electronic communications do not independently:
Establish an attorney-client relationship;
Constitute acceptance of a legal matter;
Confirm that a conflict check has been completed;
Establish that a filing or response deadline has been accepted by the Firm; or
Constitute a guarantee that a communication has been reviewed by an attorney.
8. Privacy and Cookies
Our collection and processing of personal information through the Site are described in our Privacy Policy.
The Site may use cookies and similar technologies subject to the consent and preference mechanisms made available through the Site.
Third-party services integrated with the Site may independently process information under their own privacy policies and terms.
Where these Terms and the Privacy Policy address the processing of personal information differently, the Privacy Policy governs with respect to privacy and data-processing matters.
9. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Site:
For unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or malicious purposes;
To interfere with the Site’s operation, availability, or security;
To gain or attempt to gain unauthorized access to systems, accounts, networks, or data;
To introduce malware, malicious code, automated attacks, or other harmful technologies;
To impersonate another person or materially misrepresent your identity;
To collect information about other users without lawful authorization;

Otherwise in a manner that violates applicable law or the rights of Carrizo Global Law or another person.

10. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated, the Site and its original content including: text, graphics, branding, logos, page designs, articles, videos, downloadable resources, and other materials, are owned by Carrizo Global Law or used pursuant to authorization from their respective owners and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.
You may access and make reasonable copies of publicly available Site content for your personal, noncommercial informational use.
Except as permitted by law or with prior written authorization, you may not reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, license, modify, create derivative works from, systematically scrape, mirror, or commercially exploit substantial portions of Site content.

11. Third-Party Websites and Services
The Site may contain links to or integrations with third-party services, including scheduling systems, payment processors, communication platforms, government websites, maps, social-media services, document systems, or other external resources.
Carrizo Global Law does not control and is not responsible for the content, availability, accessibility, security, accuracy, or privacy practices of third-party services.
A link to or integration with a third party does not, by itself, constitute endorsement of that party or its content.
Your interaction with third-party services may be governed by separate terms, privacy policies, and contractual arrangements.
12. Consultations, Scheduling, and Payments
Carrizo Global Law may offer free or paid consultations and may permit payments through the Site or through third-party payment services.
The price, duration, cancellation terms, rescheduling rules, and other conditions applicable to a consultation will be disclosed through the applicable booking or payment process.
Scheduling, attending, or paying for a consultation does not guarantee that the Firm will accept a subsequent legal engagement.
Fees and costs associated with an attorney-client representation are governed by the applicable engagement agreement and professional-conduct requirements.
In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and a written engagement agreement concerning legal services, the engagement agreement controls with respect to that representation.
Advance fees, costs, refunds, trust funds, and other client funds will be handled in accordance with the applicable engagement agreement and professional obligations governing the Firm.
13. Time-Sensitive Matters
The Site is not intended for emergency or time-sensitive legal communications.
Do not rely upon an email, form submission, chat, social-media message, voicemail, scheduling request, or other Site communication to preserve a claim or satisfy a legal deadline.
If your matter involves an approaching filing deadline, hearing, statute of limitations, immigration deadline, tax deadline, court date, government notice, or other time-sensitive requirement, you are responsible for obtaining appropriate assistance and confirming whether an attorney has expressly undertaken responsibility for the matter.
14. Accessibility
Carrizo Global Law seeks to provide an accessible digital experience and maintains a separate Accessibility Statementdescribing our accessibility efforts and methods for requesting assistance.
If a Site feature presents an accessibility barrier, please contact the Firm using the information provided in our Accessibility Statement so that we can evaluate an alternative means of access where practicable.
15. Website Disclaimer of Warranties
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the public Site as a technological and informational resource is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
We do not warrant that the Site will at all times be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, free of harmful components, or compatible with every device, browser, or assistive technology.
Nothing in this section limits any professional duty owed by an attorney to a client or prospective client under applicable law or rules of professional conduct.
16. Limitation of Liability for Website Use
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Carrizo Global Law will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising solely from the use of, inability to access, or technological operation of the public Site.
This limitation applies to use of the Site as a website and does not limit or purport to limit liability arising from legal representation, professional malpractice, breach of professional duty, duties owed to a prospective client, or any liability that applicable law or professional-conduct rules prohibit the Firm from limiting.
17. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for losses, liabilities, damages, or reasonable costs directly resulting from your unlawful misuse of the Site, intentional interference with its operation, or infringement of intellectual-property rights through your use of the Site.
This provision does not apply to claims arising from legal representation or professional services provided by Carrizo Global Law.
18. International Access and Mandatory Rights
The Site may be accessed from jurisdictions outside the District of Columbia and outside the United States.
The Firm does not represent that Site content or services are appropriate, lawful, or available for every user or jurisdiction.

These Terms and disputes arising specifically from the use or operation of the public Site are governed by the laws of the District of Columbia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.
Subject to any mandatory rights or venue rules that cannot lawfully be waived, proceedings concerning these Terms or use of the public Site shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the District of Columbia.
This section does not determine the governing law, forum, dispute procedures, or professional obligations applicable to an attorney-client representation. Those matters are governed by applicable law, professional-conduct rules, tribunal requirements, and any controlling engagement agreement.
22. Severability and No Waiver
If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be applied to the maximum extent permitted by law and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
A failure by Carrizo Global Law to enforce a provision of these Terms on one occasion does not waive the Firm’s right to enforce it later.

Cookie and privacy preferences, which may be managed through the Cookie Settings control available in the Site footer; and
