Why are people below not prefacing their comments with IANAL (I am not a lawyer). This should be a bare minimum for all legal advice.
Nah, any advice you ever get on the internet should never be construed as legal (or medical, or <insert profession here>) advice. The whole “IANAL” and “IANYL” shit is stupid. You hired a lawyer and enter into contract with them to get proper advice. They don’t have to disclose their job/position to talk on the internet. Nor do I or any other person just to have a discussion.
I can only imagine the argument in court “He gave me advice on the internet and didn’t disclose if they were or weren’t a lawyer!”. I’m pretty sure every judge on the planet would just look at them the same way they look at Sovereign Citizens.
Because you don’t seek for a legal advice on Lemmy in the first place.
You should probably just always assume that unless you are literally paying a lawyer you’ve contacted. Tbh, it’d be better for a lawyer to delineate that they are one specifically in their comment due to the fact that statistically most people are in fact not lawyers.
I assume you are a lawyer and this is legal advice?
