Illinois Prison Project Legal Clinic, Advice and Consultation Agreement
ACCEPTANCE OF ADVICE AND CONSULTATION SERVICES

I understand that Illinois Prison Project (IPP) is agreeing to provide only legal advice and consultation services to me. I understand that this is NOT an agreement for IPP to represent me or my loved one. The services that IPP may provide are limited to advice, referral, and consultation. These services do not constitute or create an agreement to represent me or my loved one in any formal or informal capacity. I understand that IPP is NOT my attorney and is NOT my loved one's attorney. IPP will NOT prepare or file any legal documents on my behalf. IPP will NOT represent me or my loved one at any hearings.

I understand that, if IPP decides to provide full representation in the future, will draft a full representation agreement (also called a retainer) for the incarcerated individual to sign. If that does not happen, the limitations described above will continue to apply (meaning that IPP does not represent me or my loved one). Should IPP learn of a potential conflict of interest, we may decline to speak with you directly.

The legal advice that IPP provides me will be based on my statements, expectations, and information available to IPP, as well as how IPP understands how the law applies to my case. For that reason, I understand that it is important that I am as truthful as I can be and that I assist IPP in obtaining any documents that they might need in order to help me.

I understand that IPP cannot guarantee any particular outcome regarding what will happen with my or my loved one's case. That means that IPP cannot promise that the case will be successful. Additionally, IPP is not liable for statements and advice provided in good faith.

Although information I share with IPP will be treated as confidential, participation in this legal clinic does not create an attorney-client relationship in any way.  

I have read and understand this agreement.

Illinois Prison Project Acuerdo de Clínica Legal, Asesoramiento y Consulta

ACEPTACIÓN DE SERVICIOS DE CONSEJO Y CONSULTA

Entiendo que Illinois Prison Project (IPP) está de acuerdo en proporcionarme solo asesoramiento legal y servicios de consulta. Entiendo que este NO es un acuerdo para que IPP me represente a mí o a mi ser querido. Los servicios que IPP puede proporcionar se limitan a asesoramiento, referencia y consulta. Estos servicios no constituyen ni crean un acuerdo para representarme a mí o a mi ser querido en ninguna capacidad formal o informal. Entiendo que IPP NO es mi abogado y NO es el abogado de mi ser querido. IPP NO preparará ni presentará ningún documento legal en mi nombre. IPP NO me representará a mí ni a mi ser querido en ninguna audiencia.

Entiendo que, si IPP decide proporcionar representación completa en el futuro, redactará un acuerdo de representación completa (también llamado anticipo) para que la persona encarcelada lo firme. Si eso no sucede, las limitaciones descritas anteriormente continuarán aplicándose (lo que significa que IPP no me representa a mí ni a mi ser querido). En caso de que IPP se entere de un posible conflicto de intereses, podemos negarnos a hablar con usted directamente.

El asesoramiento legal que IPP me brinde se basará en mis declaraciones, expectativas e información disponible para IPP, así como en cómo IPP entiende cómo se aplica la ley a mi caso. Por esa razón, entiendo que es importante que sea lo más sincero posible y que ayude a IPP a obtener cualquier documento que puedan necesitar para ayudarme.

Entiendo que IPP no puede garantizar ningún resultado en particular con respecto a lo que sucederá con mi caso o el de mi ser querido. Eso significa que IPP no puede prometer que el caso tendrá éxito. Además, IPP no es responsable de las declaraciones y consejos proporcionados de buena fe.

Aunque la información que comparto con IPP será tratada como confidencial, la participación en esta clínica legal no crea una relación abogado-cliente de ninguna manera.  

He leído y entiendo este acuerdo.
