Legal service providers have a strict duty of confidentiality. In addition to professional obligations, they must also adhere to the Privacy Act 2020 and New Zealand Privacy Principles, ensuring that client data is securely stored, processed, and not disclosed without proper authorization. Our lawyers can guide legal firms on compliance with privacy requirements.
It's always important for a business to have strong terms and conditions (T&Cs) that are tailored to their specific requirements. T&Cs essentially set out the terms that customers must agree to before they further engage with your business.
If you're an online legal platform, this is even more beneficial as it allows you to monitor activity on your website and limit your liability for things that go wrong.
Overall, it allows both you and customers to be on the same page about rights, responsibilities and expectations around the services you're providing.
