Interpretive note: The excerpt contains two closely related but independent propositions: (1) the information and services are not intended to and shall not be used as legal advice, and (2) no attorney-client relationship is formed. Both are stated in the canonical claim as a single compound proposition because they are directly interrelated; both are also listed in omitted_material to flag their independent legal significance.
Readers may not treat the site's information or services as legal advice, and no attorney-client relationship arises from their use of the site.
