About This Website
This website is operated by Samuel Martin, a Connecticut-licensed attorney. The information on this website is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice.
Samuel Martin is licensed to practice law in the State of Connecticut. This website is not intended to solicit clients outside of Connecticut, and Samuel Martin does not offer legal services in jurisdictions where he is not licensed.
Contacting Us
Contacting Samuel Martin through this website, by email, or by phone does not automatically create a general attorney-client relationship, although it may lead to a limited-scope referral consultation as described below. No attorney-client relationship of any kind, including a limited-scope referral representation, is formed until Samuel Martin agrees to represent you.
Limited-Scope Referral Representation
If you choose to hire Samuel Martin, he will establish a lawyer-client relationship with you. That relationship is a limited representation to assess and refer your matter:
- Scope. Samuel Martin will represent you solely for an initial intake, conflict screen, preliminary assessment, and referral. He will not represent you on the merits of your matter unless you separately agree to that. This limited engagement still carries his duties of competence, confidentiality, conflict avoidance, and communication.
- Intake. He will conduct an intake sufficient to identify the legal issue, assess conflicts, and determine whether the receiving lawyer is competent and appropriate for your matter.
- Referral decision. He will make a documented referral decision based on your interests, not on any pay-to-play arrangement.
- Written disclosure. Before or at the time of referral, you will receive a written disclosure that names Samuel Martin and the receiving lawyer or law firm and describes how the fee will be shared. You will have the opportunity to object, and the fee will be shared only if you do not object.
- Reasonable fees. The total fee charged to you will remain reasonable.
If Samuel Martin declines representation and no lawyer-client relationship is formed, he cannot receive any portion of the receiving lawyer's fee.
Information You Send Us
Samuel Martin will treat the narratives, documents, and contact information you submit as potentially confidential. Submitting information does not by itself create a representation. If your matter requires immediate attention, please call the office directly at 475-850-3864 rather than relying on the contact form.
Past Results
Any results described on this website, including case outcomes or client testimonials, do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any future matter. Every case depends on its own specific facts and circumstances, and past results are not a guarantee of future outcomes.
Third-Party Links
This website may contain links to third-party websites provided for your convenience. Samuel Martin is not responsible for the content, accuracy, or privacy practices of those third-party sites.
