Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 7, 2026

Ralph A. Schwartz, PC (“the Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through www.ralphaschwartzpc.com (the “Website”), how we use and share it, and the choices you have. It applies only to the Website and to communications that begin through it, including text messages you agree to receive.

Using this Website does not create an attorney-client relationship. Please do not send confidential or time-sensitive information through our forms, email, or text messages until we have agreed to represent you. Information you share with us as a client is also protected by the attorney-client privilege and the Nevada Rules of Professional Conduct, which apply in addition to this policy. Please also review our Disclaimer.

1. Information We Collect

Information you give us. When you submit a contact or consultation form, call, email, or text us, we may collect:

  • Your first and last name
  • Email address and phone number (including mobile number)
  • State and ZIP code
  • Your preferred contact method and the reason for your inquiry
  • Any details you choose to include in your message, such as information about an accident, injury, medical treatment, insurance, or criminal charge
  • Your consent choices, such as agreement to receive text messages

Please share only what is needed for us to understand your inquiry. Sensitive details are best discussed directly with the attorney.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the Website, our servers and third-party tools may collect technical information, including your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring website, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and approximate location derived from your IP address. This information is collected through server logs, cookies, and similar technologies (see Section 5).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your inquiry and schedule a free consultation
  • Evaluate whether we can help with your legal matter and check for conflicts of interest
  • Communicate with you by phone, email, or text message about your inquiry or case
  • Operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Website, including preventing spam and fraud
  • Understand how visitors use the Website so we can improve its content
  • Comply with legal, ethical, and professional obligations

We do not use your information to make automated decisions that have legal effects on you.

3. Text Messaging (SMS)

If you check the box on our contact form agreeing to receive text messages, Ralph A. Schwartz, PC may send you text messages about your inquiry, such as appointment scheduling, follow-ups, requests for information, and updates about your matter.

  • Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
  • To opt out, reply STOP to any message. You will receive one confirmation message and no further texts unless you opt in again.
  • For help, reply HELP or call us at 702-888-5291.
  • Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of hiring the Firm or receiving a consultation.
  • Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties, except service providers (such as our messaging platform) that help us deliver messages to you and are bound to keep the information confidential.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing. We share information only as follows:

  • Service providers that help us run the Website and our practice, such as web hosting, form processing, email, phone and text-messaging platforms, intake and case-management software, and analytics. They may use the information only to perform services for us.
  • People involved in your matter, when you are a client and it is needed to handle your case, such as co-counsel, experts, court reporters, medical-record vendors, insurers, or courts, consistent with our professional duties.
  • Legal requirements, when we believe disclosure is required by law, subpoena, court order, or the rules governing attorneys, or is needed to protect the rights, property, or safety of the Firm, our clients, or others.
  • Business transfers, if the Firm’s practice is sold, merged, or transferred, subject to applicable ethics rules on client confidentiality.
  • With your consent, or at your direction.
