1. Information We Collect
We may collect the information you provide to us directly, such as when you subscribe to our mailing list, register for an event, contact us by letter, contact us by phone, contact us by e-mail, respond to an online advertisement, or submit an inquiry on our website, as well as information well collect automatically through the use of cookies and similar technologies during your interactions with our website. Strategic Legal Practices also contracts with certain professional firms to provide us with information. Strategic Legal Practices uses this information in its legal practice.

We also collect information by recording our telephone consultations with our clients. You are not required to allow us to record any conversation.
As part of our client services, we establish a dedicated portal allowing each client to access documents, videos and other information that is relevant to their case. We track the access and use of this portal, and we inform clients of updates to their portal through text messages. Clients are able to opt-out of text messages; however, that may reduce our effectiveness and impact our ability to manage their cases.
Under California Assembly Bill 1755, beginning January 1, 2025, California now requires mandatory mediation and streamlined discovery processes for resolving disputes between consumers and vehicle manufacturers. SLP collects information arising out of these processes from clients and manufacturers to facilitate our representation of our clients.
