Disclaimers & Terms of Use

Last Updated: February 23, 2026

1. Consumer Communications & RECORDINGS

To ensure accuracy and professionalism in communications, phone calls between you and Busciglio Sheridan & Schoeb (“BSS,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), including communications with our attorneys, staff, or affiliates, may be recorded.

Virtual meetings conducted through platforms such as Zoom may also be recorded with appropriate notice.

We may contact you by phone, text message, email, or other electronic means using the information you provide, including via automated dialing systems or prerecorded messages where permitted by law. By submitting your contact information, you confirm that you are authorized to receive such communications and consent to them in accordance with applicable law.

2. Informational Use Only — Not Legal Advice

The content on this website (www.mytampafirm.com), including any subpages or mobile versions (the “Site”), is provided for general informational purposes only.

Nothing on this Site constitutes legal advice. You should not act or rely upon any information without first consulting a licensed attorney regarding your specific circumstances.

Accessing this Site, contacting BSS, or submitting information through online forms does not create an attorney-client relationship.

3. Client portal & virtual communications

BSS utilizes secure third-party platforms, including Clio for client portal services and Zoom for video conferencing and virtual meetings.

If you are a retained client, you may be provided access to a secure client portal for document exchange, case updates, and communications. While BSS selects reputable service providers that employ industry-standard security measures, these platforms are operated by third parties, and BSS does not control their systems.

Use of the client portal or participation in virtual communications does not independently create an attorney-client relationship. That relationship is formed only through a signed written engagement agreement.

4. No Attorney-Client Relationship

An attorney-client relationship is established only upon execution of a written engagement agreement signed by both you and BSS.

Do not submit confidential or time-sensitive information through the public portions of this Site unless you are an existing client or have been expressly directed to use our secure client portal.

All legal services and advice are provided and reviewed by licensed attorneys. AI tools do not independently render legal advice, create binding legal authority, or replace attorney judgment. All legal citations and authorities are reviewed and validated prior to use.
