This Privacy Policy explains how Hawthorne Legacy Advisors(“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information you provide through this website.
Information we collect
We collect information you give us when you:
- Submit an intake or contact form (name, email, phone, city, family and asset context, and notes you choose to share).
- Send us an email or call us.
- Use our website (basic technical data such as IP address, browser, and pages viewed).
How we use it
We use the information you provide to:
- Respond to your inquiry and schedule a consultation.
- Provide legal services if you become a client.
- Send transactional communications related to your engagement (drafts, scheduling, signing).
- Maintain firm records and meet our professional obligations.
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We do not share it outside the firm except as needed to provide legal services to you (e.g., notaries, recording offices) or as required by law.
Confidentiality before engagement
Information you share before signing a written engagement agreement is not protected by attorney-client privilege. See our disclaimer for details. Please do not include highly sensitive information in your initial intake submission.
How we protect it
We store form submissions in encrypted databases and transmit them over HTTPS. Email transmissions are not end-to-end encrypted unless specifically configured. We restrict access to client information to attorneys and staff who need it to do their work.
