Firm Privacy Policy (Effective 9/25/2026)
This Privacy Policy explains how Oberti Sullivan LLP (the “Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and discloses personal information obtained through our website, online intake processes, communications with the Firm, and SMS/text messaging. This Policy does not modify the Firm’s professional obligations, any attorney-client relationship, or any written engagement agreement.
Information We Collect
We may collect personal information that you choose to provide to us, including your name, mailing address, telephone number, email address, employer or employment information, information concerning a potential or existing legal matter, documents or files you submit, and the contents of communications with the Firm. When you use our website, our website host and service providers also may collect limited technical information, such as an IP address, browser or device information, requested pages, and access times, as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, and maintain the website.
If you communicate with us by SMS/text message, we may collect and retain your mobile telephone number, the content of messages, and information reasonably necessary to transmit, receive, manage, and document those communications, including delivery, response, consent, and opt-out information.
How We Use Personal Information
We may use personal information to respond to inquiries; conduct conflict checks; evaluate whether the Firm can undertake a representation; provide legal services; communicate with prospective, current, and former clients and other persons; schedule calls, meetings, and deadlines; request information or documents; provide matter-related and administrative updates; maintain client and business records; operate, secure, and improve our systems; comply with legal and professional obligations; and otherwise conduct the Firm’s business.
The Firm does not use SMS/text messaging to send advertising, promotions, solicitations, mass marketing, or spam. Outbound SMS messages are used only for occasional client-related communications with existing clients who agree to receive them, such as requests for information or documents, scheduling and reminders, and other communications concerning an active legal representation.
How We Disclose Personal Information
We may disclose personal information to service providers that perform services on our behalf, including providers of website hosting, online intake, information technology, cybersecurity, document management, cloud services, communications, and telecommunications services. Those providers may process information only as reasonably necessary to provide services to the Firm and are not authorized by the Firm to use client or consumer information for their own marketing. We also may disclose information when authorized by the affected person, when reasonably necessary in connection with a legal representation, when required by law or court order, or when otherwise permitted or required by applicable legal or professional obligations.
We do not sell or rent personal information for marketing purposes. No mobile opt-in information or text-message consent will be shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. Communications and telecommunications providers may process mobile numbers, message content, and related data solely as necessary to transmit and manage SMS communications for the Firm.
SMS/Text Messaging
Submitting a telephone number through our website or an online inquiry or intake form does not, by itself, constitute consent to receive SMS/text messages from the Firm. The Firm separately obtains consent before initiating client-related SMS communications, such as through a signed engagement agreement or other express oral or written consent.
If you have consented to receive SMS messages from the Firm, you may receive occasional conversational or informational messages concerning your legal representation, including requests for information or documents, scheduling and appointment reminders, follow-up communications, and matter-related or administrative updates. Messaging frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. You may opt out at any time by replying STOP to a Firm text message or by otherwise telling us that you no longer wish to receive text messages. For assistance, reply HELP or call us at (713) 401-3555.
Opting out of SMS communications will not affect the Firm’s representation of an existing client. We will communicate through other appropriate channels. For additional terms governing text messaging, please review our SMS Terms of Service at https://osattorneys.com/sms-terms
Security and Retention
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures designed to protect personal information. No electronic communication or storage system, including SMS, can be guaranteed to be completely secure or error-free. We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and as required or permitted by applicable law, professional obligations, engagement agreements, and record-retention practices.
Attorney-Client Relationship and Confidentiality
Visiting our website, submitting information, or sending a communication does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship arises only when the Firm agrees to undertake a representation. The Firm’s duties of confidentiality and other professional obligations to clients and prospective clients are governed by applicable law, professional rules, and any applicable engagement agreement.
Changes to This Policy
We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. The Effective Date above identifies the most recent version. A revised Policy becomes effective when posted unless the Policy states otherwise.
