PRIVACY

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Morgan Legal Group, P.C. ('we', 'us', 'the firm') collects, uses, and protects information about visitors to morganlegalny.com and clients of the firm. Last updated: 2026-05-21.

Information We Collect

We collect three categories of information:

  • Information you provide directly — contact form submissions, consultation requests, engagement documents, communications with the firm
  • Information collected automatically — IP address, browser type, pages visited, referring URL, basic analytics via privacy-respecting tools
  • Cookies and similar technologies — session cookies for site functionality; analytics cookies if you have consented

How We Use Information

  • To respond to your inquiries and provide legal services if you retain the firm
  • To improve the website and the services we offer
  • To comply with legal obligations including New York Rules of Professional Conduct
  • For internal record-keeping required by attorney-client and ethical rules

Attorney-Client Privilege

Submitting information through this website does not create an attorney-client relationship. Until a written engagement letter is signed, communications are not protected by attorney-client privilege. Please do not send confidential information through unencrypted email or the contact form.

Information Sharing

We do not sell or rent personal information. We share information only:

  • With service providers who help us operate the website and the firm (under written confidentiality terms)
  • When required by law, subpoena, or court order
  • With your express written consent

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:

  • Access — request a copy of the information we hold about you
  • Rectification — request correction of inaccurate information
  • Deletion — request deletion subject to legal hold requirements (attorney files have multi-year retention obligations under New York Rules of Professional Conduct)
  • Opt-out — opt out of analytics cookies and marketing communications
  • Portability — request your data in machine-readable format

GDPR (European Visitors)

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, our processing of your personal data is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation. Our legal basis for processing is your consent, our legitimate interest in providing legal services, and (where applicable) our contractual obligations under the engagement letter.

CCPA (California Residents)

California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act including the right to know what information is collected, the right to deletion (subject to legal retention obligations), and the right to opt out of "sale" of personal information. Morgan Legal Group does not sell personal information.

Data Retention

Client files are retained for at least seven years after the conclusion of the engagement, as required by New York Rules of Professional Conduct. Website analytics data is retained for 14 months.

Security

We use industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. No system is perfectly secure. Please use the client portal (when available) rather than email for sensitive information.

Children

The website is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
