Additional Terms and Conditions for Legal Consultation Referrals

1. Service Description and Limitation of Liability

GermanPedia offers a platform that connects users with licensed lawyers who specialize in German immigration and citizenship law. GermanPedia itself does not provide legal services or advice and is solely an intermediary facilitating the connection between users and independent legal professionals.

All legal services and advice are provided solely by the lawyer. GermanPedia does not assume any responsibility for the quality, accuracy, or outcome of the legal services provided by the lawyer. The lawyer is responsible for all actions, advice, and legal representation provided to the user.

2. Disclaimer of Warranty and No Guarantee of Outcome

GermanPedia does not warrant or guarantee any specific results or outcomes from the legal services provided by the lawyer. All legal advice and services are subject to the lawyer’s professional judgment, and GermanPedia is not liable for any advice or outcomes that result from the user’s engagement with the lawyer.

3. Fee Structure and Lead Generation

GermanPedia receives a lead generation fee for connecting users with the lawyer. This fee is for referral purposes only and does not affect the fees or services provided by the lawyer. Users understand that the lawyer determines their own fees independently and that the legal service fees are separate from any referral fee GermanPedia may receive.

4. Data Collection and Privacy

GermanPedia will share user information with the lawyer only upon explicit consent from the user. Users understand that, once referred, their engagement and relationship with the lawyer are governed by the lawyer’s terms and conditions and privacy policies.

5. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law

These supplemental terms are governed by German law. Any disputes specifically related to the legal consultation referral service shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of German courts.
