Information We Collect
“Personal Information” refers to any information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual.
The Personal Information we collect about you depends on your relationship with us. We may collect Personal Information directly from individuals (e.g., from our clients), through our communications, indirectly via tracking technologies on our Sites, or from third parties that provide your information with your authorization or otherwise on your behalf (e.g., information from your medical provider). Specifically:
Information You Provide Directly. When you contact us through our Site, complete a contact form, sign up for our newsletter, submit an intake form, or otherwise communicate with us, you may provide us with Personal Information including your full name, mailing address, email address, telephone number, date of birth, and any other information you choose to include in your correspondence or submissions. If you engage us for legal representation, we may also collect more detailed Personal Information necessary to provide legal services, such as your Social Security number, driver’s license number, financial information, medical records, employment history, insurance information, criminal history, court records, and any other information relevant to your legal matter.
Information Collected Through Communications. We may collect and retain the contents of emails, telephone call logs, voicemail messages, online chat transcripts, text messages, and any other communications between you and the Firm.

Our Site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, analyze website traffic, and understand how visitors interact with our Site.

In Connection With Legal Representation. In the course of representing you, we may disclose Personal Information to courts, tribunals, administrative agencies, opposing counsel, co-counsel, mediators, arbitrators, expert witnesses, investigators, court reporters, and other parties or entities as necessary or appropriate to advance your legal interests.

We may share Personal Information with third-party service providers who perform functions on our behalf, including website hosting providers, information technology support, email service providers, cloud storage providers, document management services, legal research platforms, accounting and billing services, and marketing platforms. We require our service providers to use Personal Information only for the purposes of providing services to the Firm and to maintain appropriate confidentiality and security measures.

In limited circumstances, we may be required to disclose certain information to bar associations, disciplinary authorities, or malpractice insurers in connection with our professional obligations. Any such disclosures are made in compliance with applicable rules of professional conduct and, where applicable, with appropriate protections for privileged and confidential information.

Information About Children
The Site is not intended for children under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information via the Site from visitors in this age group. If you believe that we have unintentionally collected Personal Information about your child, you can contact us by email as described below.
Security
King Law takes reasonable steps to protect Personal Information as you transmit it to our Site and to protect such information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. You should know and consider that no Internet or mobile device transmission, including text messages, is ever completely secure or error-free. As a result, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee that it will be 100% secure. Your transmission of your information to our Site thus is done entirely at your own risk.
Retention of Personal Information
We retain Personal Information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with our legal and professional obligations, and to protect our legitimate interests.
For current and former clients, we retain case files and related personal information in accordance with our record retention policy, the New York Rules of Professional Conduct, and applicable statutes of limitation. Client files are typically retained for a minimum period following the conclusion of the matter, after which they may be securely destroyed in accordance with our policies and applicable ethical obligations. We will notify former clients before destroying their files when required to do so by applicable rules or when the files may reasonably be expected to be of continuing value to the client.
For Site visitors who do not become clients, we retain Personal Information for as long as necessary to respond to inquiries, provide requested communications, and comply with applicable law. You may request deletion of your information by contacting us as described above.
Links to Other Websites
The Site may contain links or references to other websites to which this Privacy Policy does not apply. We encourage you to read the Privacy Policy of every website you visit.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update or revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, applicable law, or regulatory guidance. When we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the “Effective Date” at the top of this page and post the revised policy on our website. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your personal information.
Your continued use of our Services following the posting of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acknowledgment of the changes. If we make material changes that affect how we handle Personal Information collected during an existing attorney-client relationship, we will make reasonable efforts to notify affected clients directly.
