The content and features on the Site do not create, and are not intended to create, an attorney-client relationship, and shall not be construed as legal advice.

Confidentiality is Not Guaranteed
  

Any information sent to Postman Law via Internet e-mail or through the website is not secure and is done on a non-confidential basis. Postman Law respects the privacy of any person who contacts our firm, and we will make reasonable efforts to keep information confidentially internally, but because of the nature of Internet communications and the absence of an attorney/client relationship, we cannot promise or guarantee confidentiality.

By submitting information to us, you agree that we may release your contact information excluding your mobile number, and all information that may be submitted by you to law firms with whom we partner expressing an interest in possibly pursuing your potential claim(s) and you further agree and understand that such law firms may contact you directly should they have any interest in discussing your potential claim(s) with you, unless you request in writing your desire not to be contacted. By submitting information to us, you also agree that we may use your contact information to send you electronic newsletters. In no event, however, shall we be obligated to release any submitted information to law firms with whom we partner, including contact names, but rather may or may not do so at our sole discretion. Furthermore, in no event is any law firm obligated to contact you with regard to your potential claim(s), but rather may or may not do so at its sole discretion. By accepting the submission of your information, we do not offer any advice on whether you may have a legal remedy for your potential claim(s), and make no representation or guarantee that you will obtain satisfaction, justice or compensation for your potential claim(s), and we do not offer any opinion whatsoever concerning the merits of any potential claim you might have. If, after discussing your specific case with an attorney, the attorney is willing to represent you in the specific matter you have presented to them, they will send you a retainer agreement in the mail that you will need to sign and return before they can represent you in that specific matter. If either the attorneys or you do not agree in writing to create an attorney-client relationship, none will exist. In the meantime, you are encouraged to seek and retain the advice of other counsel if you intend to pursue any potential claims to avoid having your potential case barred by relevant statutes of limitation, statutes of repose, and/or other similar deadlines by which you must bring a lawsuit or lose the right to do so.

These links are provided only as a convenience to the recipient. These Terms of Use only apply to the Site and do not apply to any linked sites. We encourage you to read and understand the terms of use of any linked sites that you visit. Links do not imply that we sponsor, endorse, are affiliated with or associated with, or are legally authorized to use any trademark, trade name, service mark, design, logo, symbol, or other copyrighted materials displayed on or accessible through any linked site.


Relationship Among Lawyers
  

Postman Law lawyers are licensed to practice law only within the state of Illinois, but we associate on certain types of cases with lawyers licensed or otherwise admitted to practice law throughout the United States (the “Attorney Group”). Attorneys and law firms associated by Postman Law are determined by Postman Law, in the professional judgment of its principal, to be experienced in and qualified to handle the litigation matters for which they are associated.

Initial consultations on a particular matter are provided free of cost, and upon agreement with the potential client and in the sole discretion of Postman Law. Postman Law will enter into a contract for legal services with the potential client which describes in writing the fee charged for a particular engagement, as well as other terms of the representation, including disclosure that other attorneys or law firms may be associated to participate in the representation. If known, the identity of any affiliated attorney or law firm that will have a role in the representation will be included in the contract. Otherwise, in the event that counsel is associated on a particular matter, the client will be informed and any consent required by applicable rules of professional conduct will be obtained.

All matters are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning that a client pays no fees or costs unless a recovery is obtained on the client’s behalf, unless otherwise requested by You and agreed to by Postman Law. Fees paid in the event of a recovery are a percentage of the total recovery, as agreed to with the client prior to undertaking the representation and as set forth in the contract for legal services, and are intended to be in accordance with standards in the legal services industry and, where applicable, state rules of professional responsibility. Costs incurred in the representation are deducted from the client’s portion of any recovery but are not required to be paid out of pocket by the client. If there is no recovery, the client will not be responsible for any cost incurred in the representation (unless expressly agreed to by the client prior to the cost being incurred). The use of affiliated attorneys or law firms does not increase the fee, although other factors may increase the fee.

Inquiries made through this website are typically responded to by Postman Law. We reserve the right to not respond to inquiries on this website and may, at its discretion, direct inquiries to other attorneys or law firms without an initial response. In such instances, Postman Law makes no representation regarding the ability of the responding attorney to represent the potential client in accordance with applicable standards of care. Postman Law may or may not decide to associate as counsel on such cases. Telephone calls made or received by Postman Law regarding an inquiry made through this website may be recorded for record-keeping, training and quality-assurance purposes.

 

State Laws Vary


Postman Law may refer prospective clients to other law firms located throughout the country, who form relationships with Postman Law, and are experienced in handling such cases. Postman Law may also undertake legal representation in certain cases, and will affiliate with other legal counsel located throughout the country to provide legal representation . The laws of each state are different. This website may contain information about general or common rules that apply in some states. This website may also contain information about verdicts or settlements in past cases. You cannot assume that the same rules apply, or that the same result would occur, in your state or any particular state or case. Statutes of limitations are especially important. Every state has laws called the “statute of limitations” which set a deadline to file a lawsuit. A lawsuit filed too late may be thrown out, regardless of the defendant’s fault or the severity of the injuries. Some states have a two-year period for negligence injury claims; the time period in other states may be longer or shorter. Because investigation and research is needed to identify all possible defendants and theories of recovery, if you have an accident or injury, you should consult a lawyer as soon as possible.


Legal and Ethical Requirements
  

Postman Law has tried to comply with all legal and ethical requirements in compiling this website. We welcome comments about our compliance with applicable rules and will update the site as warranted, upon learning of any new or different requirements. We only want to represent clients based on their review of this website if it complies with all legal or ethical requirements. To the extent that the professional responsibility rules of any jurisdiction require us to designate a principal office or an attorney responsible for this website, Postman Law designates its office at 150 N. Riverside Plaza, Suite 4100, Chicago, IL 60606, and attorney Marquel Reddish Longtin. 


Honors, Accolades and Recognition
  

To the extent that any display of honors, accolades and recognition made on this website are considered attorney advertising, no aspect of such advertisement has been approved or sanctioned by the supreme courts or accrediting organizations of any state. The inclusion of an honor, accolade or recognition is not intended to compare the services of Postman Law or its attorneys with any other attorney or law firm, nor is it intended to create an expectation of results that can be obtained in a particular matter. Any honor, accolade or recognition that uses the term “super,” “best,” “superior,” “leading,” “top-rated,” or the like, only means that the attorney has been included in a list containing that term. It is not intended to convey any superlative ability of the attorney recognized. The websites of the organizations conferring the honor, accolade or recognition may be linked to from the badge or logo displayed on this website, and you are encouraged to visit those websites to learn more about the process by which the Postman Law attorney was selected. Where the logo of a publication is listed as featuring Postman Law or one of its attorneys, you are encouraged to perform an author search or other type of search on that website for the information communicated by or about Postman Law or the Postman Law attorney on that website. Alternatively, information about honors, accolades and recognition can be provided upon request.


Disclosures Regarding Attorney Advertising
  

Some jurisdictions may consider the Site to be a form of advertising for legal services and as such may require specific disclosures. Please read the following carefully:

  

THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT. The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability, and not rely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. Hiring a lawyer is an important process that should not be based solely upon advertisements.

The attorney responsible for the content of this Site is Marquel Reddish Longtin, of Postman Law, 150 N. Riverside Plaza, Suite 4100, Chicago, IL 60606. The member attorneys of Postman Law are licensed to practice law in Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota and Ohio.

Postman Law does not operate as a lawyer-advertising cooperative, lawyer referral service, prepaid legal insurance provider, or similar organization the business or activities of which include the referral of customers, members, or beneficiaries to lawyers for the performance of fee-generating legal services or the payment for or provision of legal services to the customers, members, or beneficiaries in matters for which they do not bear ultimate responsibility. While Postman Law maintains joint responsibility for and participates in cases obtained as a result of advertising on the Site, such cases may be referred to other attorneys for principal responsibility and participation.


FREE BACKGROUND INFORMATION AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST 
  

Before you decide to hire Postman Law, ask them to send you free written information about their qualifications and experience. Additional information about the lawyers or firms may also be obtained by contacting the Bar Association in the State in which such lawyers or law firms are licensed. No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers. Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical and professional associations and societies of law or fields of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist, expert, authority or is certified in a particular field of law, nor do such memberships or licenses mean that such a lawyer is more expert or competent than any other lawyer.

  

A description or indication of limitation of practice does not mean that any agency or board has certified such lawyer as a specialist, expert or authority in an indicated field of law practice, nor does it mean that such lawyer is more expert or competent than any other lawyer. We urge all potential clients to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered.

Except where otherwise indicated, neither Postman Law nor any of the lawyers or law firms in the Attorney Group are certified by the Florida Bar Board of Legal Specialization and Education, the Texas Board of Legal Specialization (“Not Certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization”), or any other entity or body. The fact that certain attorneys or firms concentrate their practices to plaintiffs’ class actions, labor & employment, or consumer claims (or any other field) is not meant to imply that they have gained any specific type of certification in these areas. Indeed, many states do not recognize certifications of specialties in the practice of law and explicitly state that any such certificate, award or recognition is not a requirement to practice law in those states.

Because some material on this website may be found to constitute attorney advertising, and because this website may be viewed from anywhere in the United States, particular disclosures may be required by the rules of some states. To the extent applicable, the Companies adopt and make the following disclosures:

  • Alabama: No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.
  • Alaska: The Alaska Bar Association does not accredit or endorse certifying organizations.
  • Arizona: ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. No representation is made promising or guaranteeing a particular outcome or result. Any attorneys claiming certification in an area of law are certified by the Arizona Board of Legal Specialization.
  • Colorado: Colorado does not certify attorneys as specialists in any field.
  • Florida: The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Before you decide, ask us to send you free written information about our qualifications and experience.
  • Hawaii: The Supreme Court of Hawai’i grants Hawai’i certification only to lawyers in good standing who have successfully completed a specialty program accredited by the American Bar Association.
  • Illinois: The Supreme Court of Illinois does not recognize certifications of specialties in the practice of law and that the certificate, award or recognition is not a requirement to practice law in Illinois.
  • Iowa: The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. This disclosure is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
  • NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC: Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical and professional associations and societies of law or field of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist or expert in a field of law, nor do they mean that such a lawyer is necessarily any more expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered. This notice is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
  • Kentucky and Oregon: THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT.
  • Massachusetts: If a Massachusetts lawyer holds himself or herself out as “certified” in a particular service, field or area of law by a non-governmental body, the certifying organization is a private organization, whose standards for certification are not regulated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
  • Mississippi: The Mississippi Supreme Court advises that a decision on legal services is important and should not be based solely on advertisements.
  • Missouri: ADVERTISING MATERIAL: COMMERCIAL SOLICITATIONS ARE PERMITTED BY THE MISSOURI RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT BUT ARE NEITHER SUBMITTED TO NOR APPROVED BY THE MISSOURI BAR OR THE SUPREME COURT OF MISSOURI. Neither the Supreme Court of Missouri nor the Missouri Bar reviews or approves certifying organizations or specialist designations.
  • Nevada: Neither the state bar of Nevada nor any agency of the State Bar has certified any lawyer identified here as a specialist or as an expert. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability.
  • New Jersey: ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT — NOT A REFERRAL SERVICE. Before making your choice of an attorney, you should give this matter careful thought. The selection of an attorney is an important decision. Any certification as a specialist, or any certification in a field of practice, that does not state that such certification has been granted by the Supreme Court of New Jersey or by an organization that has been approved by the American Bar Association, indicates that the certifying organization has not been approved, or has been denied approval, by the Supreme Court of New Jersey and the American Bar Association.
  • New Mexico: LAWYER ADVERTISEMENT. Any certification by an organization other than the New Mexico Board of Legal Specialization does not constitute recognition by the New Mexico Board of Legal Specialization, unless the lawyer is also recognized by the board as a specialist in that area of law.
  • New York: ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
  • Rhode Island: The Rhode Island Supreme Court licenses all lawyers in the general practice of law. The court does not license or certify any lawyer as an expert or specialist in any field of practice.
  • Tennessee: None of the attorneys in this firm are certified as a Civil Trial, Criminal Trial, Business Bankruptcy, Consumer Bankruptcy, Creditor’s Rights, Medical Malpractice, Legal Malpractice, Accounting Malpractice, Estate Planning or Elder Law specialist by the Tennessee Commission on Continuing Legal Education and Specialization. Certification as a specialist in all other listed areas is not currently available in Tennessee.
  • Texas: Unless otherwise stated, our attorneys claiming certification in an area of law are not certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
  • Washington: The Supreme Court of Washington does not recognize certification of specialties in the practice of law and that the certificate, award, or recognition is not a requirement to practice law in the State of Washington.
  • Wyoming: The Wyoming State Bar does not certify any lawyer as a specialist or expert. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability, and not rely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise.

Governing Laws in case of Dispute; Jurisdiction, Binding Arbitration
  

These Terms of Use and Disclaimers shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Illinois without regard to any choice of law principles.


In the event of any dispute, controversy, or claim between us (or our respective heirs, successors, assigns, co-counsel or affiliates) arising out of, relating to, or in connection with your use of this Site, legal services arising from this Site, and/or the relationship between you and us (a “dispute”), you and we waive the right to seek remedies in court, including the right to a jury trial, and agree to submit said dispute exclusively to binding individual arbitration conducted by a single arbitrator subject to the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitrator shall not have the authority to decide any claims as a class, collective, or representative action. The seat of the arbitration will be in Chicago, Illinois unless AAA determines that this location will impose undue hardship, in which case the location will be set by AAA. The parties will share the expense of arbitration equally, except that if you represent that this would impose an undue hardship, you will initially be responsible only for a filing fee equal to the amount that would be necessary to file your claim in court. In that event, we will advance the remaining fees and expenses on your behalf and the arbitrator will determine any additional amount you can pay without sustaining undue hardship. Threshold issues of arbitrability shall be decided by the arbitrator, including the scope of this Agreement and whether a controversy or claim arises out of or relates to your engagement with us. You understand that by agreeing to arbitration as a mechanism to resolve all controversies, disputes and claims between us, you are waiving certain rights, including the right to bring an action in court, the right to a jury trial, the right to broad discovery, and the right to an appeal. You understand that in the context of arbitration, a case is decided by an arbitrator (one or more), not by a judge or a jury.
