Terms of Use & Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2, 2026

Terms of UseGavel Guide

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of the website located at gavelguide.com and any related pages, forms, or quizzes operated by My Gavel Guide ("Gavel Guide," "we," "us," or "our"). By using this site, submitting information through it, or clicking "Start," you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

1. About Gavel Guide — Not a Law Firm

Gavel Guide is an advertising and referral service. We are not a law firm, we do not employ attorneys, and we do not provide legal advice, legal representation, or legal services of any kind. We do not recommend, evaluate, endorse, or guarantee any attorney, and we do not review the merits of your case.

2. Eligibility

This site is intended for adults 18 years of age or older located in the United States. By using this site you represent that you meet these requirements.

3. The Service We Provide

We ask a short set of questions to understand the basic facts of your situation. Where your answers indicate you may have a workers' compensation matter worth reviewing, we may pass the information you submit to one or more participating attorneys or law firms so they can contact you about a possible free case review. Participating attorneys pay Gavel Guide a flat advertising fee for these introductions; we are not paid based on the outcome of any case.

4. No Attorney-Client Relationship; No Legal Advice

Using this site, submitting the quiz, or being contacted by a participating attorney does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Gavel Guide, or between you and any attorney, unless and until you and that attorney sign a written engagement agreement. Nothing on this site is legal advice, and nothing you submit is reviewed by a lawyer on our behalf before being shared with a participating attorney.

5. Attorney Advertising

Pages on this site constitute attorney advertising in some jurisdictions. The advertisement is paid for by participating attorneys and law firms. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome, and any results referenced were obtained by participating attorneys and are not typical of every case.

6. Consent to Be Contacted

By submitting the form on this site, you consent to be contacted by Gavel Guide and/or a participating attorney at the phone number and email address you provide — including by phone call, text message (SMS), and automated or prerecorded means — even if your number is on a state or federal Do Not Call registry. Message and data rates may apply. Consent to be contacted is not required as a condition of receiving legal services from any attorney, and you may revoke consent at any time by replying STOP to a text message or contacting us using the information below.

7. Accuracy of Information

You agree to provide accurate, current, and truthful information when using this site. We may rely on the information you submit without independently verifying it.

8. Intellectual Property

All content on this site — including text, graphics, logos, and design — is owned by or licensed to Gavel Guide and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, or distribute this content without our prior written permission.

9. Third-Party Links & Participating Attorneys

This site may link to, or share your information with, third parties including participating attorneys and law firms. We do not control and are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or conduct of any third party, including any participating attorney. Your interactions with a participating attorney are solely between you and that attorney.

10. Disclaimers

This site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that any participating attorney will contact you or that you will qualify for or receive any legal service.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Gavel Guide and its owners, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of this site or any interaction with a participating attorney.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Gavel Guide harmless from any claims, losses, or damages, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from your misuse of this site or violation of these Terms.

13. Governing Law & Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, unless otherwise required by applicable law where you reside.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
