By accessing or using lawbob.com (the “Site”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
2. Use of the Site
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes. You will not:
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Site or related systems.

- Submit false, inaccurate, or misleading information through the contact form.
- Use the Site in any way that violates applicable federal, state, or local law.
3. Inquiries and Consultations
Any information about our practice areas, planning approaches, or fees shown on the Site is general information only. It is not a quote, offer, or guarantee of outcome for your specific matter.
No attorney-client relationship is formed by browsing this Site or submitting an inquiry through the contact form. An engagement with the Law Offices of Robert P. Bergman begins only after a written engagement agreement covering your specific estate planning, trust, or probate matter. See Section 7 below.
4. Intellectual Property
All content on the Site — including text, graphics, photos, illustrations, design, and code — is the property of the Law Offices of Robert P. Bergman or its licensors and is protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may view and print pages for personal, non-commercial use only. Reproduction, distribution, or modification of any content for commercial purposes without our written permission is prohibited.
5. Third-Party Links and Tools
The Site may include links to third-party websites or embed third-party services (e.g., Google Analytics, GoHighLevel forms, and Google Maps). We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or accuracy of third-party sites. Your use of any third-party site is at your own risk and subject to that site’s terms.
6. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
The Site and its content are provided on an “as-is” and “as-available” basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent allowed by California law, the Law Offices of Robert P. Bergman disclaims all warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
The firm is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Site, including (but not limited to) lost profits, lost data, or business interruption. Our total aggregate liability for claims related to your use of the Site is limited to one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).
7. Relationship to Legal Engagement
These Terms of Service govern your use of the website only. Nothing on this Site constitutes legal advice or creates an attorney-client relationship, and nothing here modifies, replaces, or supplements a signed engagement agreement. If you become a client, the terms of your representation are governed exclusively by that separate, signed agreement — not by these Terms. See also our Legal Disclaimer.
8. Communications and Consent
By submitting your phone number through the contact form, you consent to receive calls and text messages from the Law Offices of Robert P. Bergman about your inquiry and related information. Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to a text or by calling (408) 247-0444. Reply HELP for assistance.
9. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Site will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
10. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Effective Date” at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
