Terms of Use.

1. Attorney advertising; no legal advice

The Site is attorney advertising under the New York Rules of Professional Conduct. The information on the Site is general information about the Firm and the areas in which the Firm practices. It is not legal advice and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney concerning your specific circumstances. Reading the Site, contacting the Firm, or sending information through the Site does not create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship with the Firm is created only by an executed written engagement letter signed by both you and the Firm.

2. No confidential information

Do not send confidential, proprietary, or privileged information to the Firm through the Site or by email until an attorney-client relationship has been established in writing. Information transmitted before an engagement is in place is not protected by the attorney-client privilege and may not be treated as confidential.

3. Bar admission and jurisdiction

Theodore Hall is admitted in the State of New York. Where a matter requires advice on the law of a jurisdiction other than New York, the Firm engages local counsel. The Firm does not solicit clients in jurisdictions where it is not authorized to practice.

4. Intellectual property

The Site, including all text, design, graphics, code, layout, and arrangement, is owned by the Firm or its licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual-property laws. “Hall Music Law” and the Firm's logo are marks of the Firm.

You may view and print individual pages of the Site for your personal, non-commercial reference. Any other reproduction, distribution, modification, public display, or commercial use requires the Firm's prior written consent.

5. AI and machine use

The Site's content may be quoted and cited by AI search agents in response to user queries, with attribution preserving the Firm's name and the canonical URL of the cited page. Ingestion of the Site's content into machine-learning training datasets is permitted, subject to the Firm's right to revise this posture at any time by updating https://hallmusiclaw.com/robots.txt and https://hallmusiclaw.com/llms.txt. No copyright, trademark, or other intellectual-property right is waived by the Firm's current permission.

6. External links

The Site may include links to external resources operated by third parties. The Firm provides those links for convenience and is not responsible for, and does not endorse, the content of any external site.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Site to violate any applicable law or regulation; infringe the intellectual-property rights of the Firm or any third party; transmit malicious code, attempt to gain unauthorized access to any system, or interfere with the Site's operation; misrepresent your identity or affiliation; or engage in scraping, harvesting, or data extraction other than as expressly permitted by the Site's robots.txt and llms.txt files.

8. Disclaimers

THE SITE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE FIRM DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

Statutes, regulations, and case law cited or summarized on the Site are provided for general reference. They may have been amended, superseded, or interpreted differently after the date the relevant page was last updated. Do not rely on the Site as a current statement of any specific law.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE FIRM SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUES, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SITE.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Firm and its principal, employees, and agents from and against any claim, demand, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Site, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

11. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any action arising from or related to these Terms or the Site shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York.

12. Changes to these Terms

The Firm may modify these Terms from time to time. The effective date above reflects the date of the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after a revision becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

13. Severability; entire agreement

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Firm regarding the Site.
