Effective as of December 7, 2025

This website is operated by Rose Law APC (“the Firm,” “we,” or “us”). By accessing or using this website, you agree to the provisions of the following Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, you should discontinue use of the website immediately.

SECTION 1 — TERMS OF USE

1. No Attorney–Client Relationship or Contract Formation

Your use of this website, including viewing its contents or submitting information through any contact or intake form, does not create an attorney-client relationship with Rose Law APC or any attorney affiliated with the Firm. An attorney-client relationship is formed only after we have completed and cleared all required conflict checks, agreed to accept your matter, and both you and the Firm have executed a separate written engagement agreement. Until that time, you should not send confidential, privileged, or time-sensitive information to us through the website or any communication channels linked to it.

2. California-Only Legal Services

Rose Law APC and its attorneys are licensed to practice law solely within the State of California. This website is directed exclusively to individuals and businesses seeking legal information or legal services relating to California law. Nothing on this website constitutes an offer to provide legal services in any jurisdiction other than California.

3. Statute of Limitations Notice

Legal claims are subject to strict statutory and administrative deadlines that may vary depending on the type of claim and the facts of the case. These deadlines may expire quickly. The Firm does not calculate, track, or preserve any statute of limitations or administrative deadline for prospective clients unless we have been formally retained through a signed written engagement agreement.

4. Attorney Advertising Notice

This website may be considered attorney advertising under the laws and ethical rules of certain jurisdictions. The selection of an attorney is an important decision and should not be based solely on advertisements or any self-proclaimed expertise. No statement on this website should be interpreted as a guarantee or prediction regarding the outcome of any legal matter. Past results do not guarantee similar outcomes. No representation is made concerning the quality of legal services performed by the Firm relative to those performed by other lawyers.

5. Background Information and Qualifications

You are encouraged to make an independent evaluation of any attorney you consider hiring. The Firm will provide written information regarding the professional qualifications and experience of our attorneys upon request. Unless expressly indicated, our attorneys are not certified as specialists in any area of law.

6. No Guarantee of Case Results

Because every legal matter depends on its own unique facts, circumstances, procedural posture, and the law in effect at the time the matter is resolved, Rose Law APC cannot and does not guarantee any particular result or outcome in any case.

7. Contingency-Fee Disclosures

The Firm may represent clients on a contingency-fee basis in certain types of cases. The terms, conditions, responsibilities, and financial arrangements relating to any contingency representation are governed exclusively by the written fee agreement executed between you and the Firm.

8. Responsible Attorney for this Website

The attorney responsible for the content of this website for purposes of attorney advertising rules is:

Joseph W. Rose
Rose Law APC
4092 Bridge Street
Fair Oaks, California 95628
Telephone: (916) 273-1260

9. Images and Depictions

Images of attorneys on this website depict actual Rose Law APC attorneys. Any other individuals shown in photographs, illustrations, or videos on this site are models or stock images and are not clients of the Firm.

10. Copyright and Trademark

Unless otherwise indicated, all content on this website, including text, photographs, images, graphics, and downloadable materials, is copyrighted by Rose Law APC. No copyright is claimed as to works of the United States Government. You may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, publicly display, or republish any portion of this website without the Firm’s prior written consent.

Working Hard for Working People® is a federally registered trademark of Rose Law APC. Resolution with Resolve℠ is a service mark of Rose Law APC.

11. DMCA Notice

The Firm complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), 17 U.S.C. § 512. If you believe that material on this website infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notice that complies with the DMCA’s statutory requirements to the Firm’s designated agent:
DMCA Agent: Joseph W. Rose, legalteam@joeroselaw.com, (916) 273-1260, 4092 Bridge Street, Fair Oaks, CA 95628.
Incomplete notices may not be processed.

12. Third-Party Platforms: MyCase and LawPay

The website contains links to third-party platforms used in connection with the Firm’s operations, including MyCase for client communications and portal access, and LawPay for payment processing. These platforms are operated independently of the Firm. When you choose to access these platforms, you are leaving the Firm’s website and interacting directly with MyCase or LawPay. Your use of those platforms is governed solely by their respective Terms of Service and Privacy Policies. The Firm does not control or assume responsibility for the content, security, availability, or data practices of those platforms. Using MyCase or LawPay does not, by itself, create an attorney–client relationship.

13. Consent to Monitoring and Data Collection (CIPA §§ 631 and 638.51)

By accessing or using this website, you expressly consent to the monitoring, logging, recording, and analysis of your interactions with the website, including through the use of cookies, analytics tools, tracking pixels, and session-replay technologies. The website may automatically collect information such as device identifiers, IP addresses, browser types, and usage patterns, and may transmit such information to third-party service providers acting as the Firm’s agents. Rose Law APC is a direct party to the communications you initiate with this website. If you do not consent to these practices, you must discontinue use of the website.

14. Use of Third-Party Service Providers

The Firm may utilize third-party service providers for website hosting, analytics, security, accessibility, and related functions. Such providers operate as agents of the Firm for functional purposes and are not considered unauthorized third-party “eavesdroppers.”

15. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to use this website for any unlawful purpose, to attempt unauthorized access to any portion of the site or its servers, to interfere with its operation, to transmit malicious code, or to disrupt security features.

16. Website Provided “As Is”

This website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. The Firm makes no representations regarding the accuracy, reliability, or availability of the website, or that the site will be free from errors, interruptions, or harmful components.

17. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rose Law APC shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, or special damages arising out of or connected to your use of this website.

18. Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver (Website-Use Disputes Only)

Any dispute arising out of or relating to your use of this website, including disputes involving data collection, monitoring, alleged violations of the California Invasion of Privacy Act (including Penal Code §§ 631 and 638.51), or the interpretation or enforceability of these Terms, shall be resolved exclusively through binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS pursuant to its Consumer Arbitration Minimum Standards and Rules. This arbitration agreement is governed first by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and if the FAA is deemed inapplicable, then by the California Arbitration Act. Arbitration shall take place in the California county where you reside, or by videoconference if permitted. The Firm will pay arbitration fees required by law except for the equivalent of a California state-court filing fee. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if the claim qualifies. Class, collective, representative, and PAGA-style actions relating to website use are waived to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the class-action waiver is held unenforceable, the entire arbitration agreement is void. Requests for public injunctive relief may be brought in court pursuant to McGill v. Citibank. This arbitration provision survives termination of website access.

19. Termination of Website Access

The Firm may suspend or terminate your access to the website at any time and without notice if it believes you have violated these Terms or have otherwise engaged in misuse of the website. Provisions of these Terms concerning intellectual property, disclaimers, consent to monitoring, arbitration, and limitations of liability survive termination.

20. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any non-arbitrable claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or this website must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Sacramento County, California.

21. Miscellaneous

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The failure of the Firm to enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver. These Terms govern only your use of the website and do not modify the terms of any attorney–client engagement agreement.

22. Website Accessibility Tools (accessiBe)

This website incorporates an accessibility interface provided by accessiBe, an independent third-party vendor. The interface may utilize cookies or similar technologies required to provide accessibility functions. Use of the accessiBe tool is voluntary and is governed by accessiBe’s own terms and privacy practices. The Firm does not control accessiBe’s algorithms, functionality, or data practices.

23. Website Use by Minors

This website is intended for use by adults. Individuals under the age of eighteen may use the website only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian. The website is not intended for children under the age of thirteen, and the Firm does not knowingly collect personal information from such individuals.

24. Email Communications and Mailchimp Newsletters

If you voluntarily submit an inquiry or intake form on this website, you consent to receive email communications from Rose Law APC related to your inquiry, including scheduling information, follow-up questions, or requests for additional details. Submission of a form does not subscribe you to general newsletters. Rose Law APC distributes newsletters and informational updates through Mailchimp, a third-party email service provider. You will receive newsletters only if you expressly opt in. All Mailchimp communications include an unsubscribe link.

25. User Password and Account Security Responsibilities

If you create or access any account, client portal, or password-protected area of a third-party platform linked through this website, such as MyCase, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your login credentials. You should create strong, unique passwords, keep your credentials confidential, ensure your device is secure, and log out after your session. You must promptly notify the Firm at legalteam@joeroselaw.com if you suspect unauthorized access, a compromised password, a potential security breach, or any defect in this website. The Firm is not responsible for unauthorized access caused by your failure to secure your credentials or devices.
