SMS Terms and Conditions
These terms govern text messages sent by Richard L. Vanderslice, P.C. (the “Firm”) through its client and prospective-client text messaging program. They supplement our [Privacy Policy](/privacy-policy/).
Program description
If you opt in, the Firm may send text messages concerning your inquiry or legal matter, such as scheduling and appointment reminders, requests or notices about documents, billing and payment notices, and case-related updates. This program is for service-related communications, not promotional advertising. [REVIEW: Confirm that the actual texts sent through Clio and any other texting service match this description.]
Consent and frequency
You may opt in using a separate checkbox on our website form or by another method through which we clearly request your consent. Providing your phone number alone does not enroll you in this program. Your consent to texts is not a condition of obtaining legal services. Message frequency varies according to your inquiry or matter.
Charges, opting out, and help
Message and data rates may apply. Your mobile carrier's charges depend on your plan. Reply STOP to any message to opt out of further texts from this program. You may receive one final confirmation message. Reply HELP for assistance, or call our office at (215) 515-7197. If you change your mobile number, please let us know so we can update our records. To communicate without texts, call our office.
Privacy and delivery
We handle information under our [Privacy Policy](/privacy-policy/). Mobile numbers and text messaging opt-in information or consent are not sold, rented, or shared with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. Standard SMS is not a secure channel; please do not send sensitive documents or confidential details by text when a secure method is available. Wireless carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Delivery depends on the availability of your mobile service and the messaging networks.
Changes and contact
We may update these terms by posting a revised version with a new effective date. For questions about this text messaging program, call (215) 515-7197 or write to Richard L. Vanderslice, P.C., 1445 Snyder Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19145.
