1. Scope and acceptance
These Terms of Use apply to your access to 92chambers.com and its public pages, publications, directories, search functions, Ask Chambers discussions and other website features operated by Ninety Two Chambers. By using the website, you agree to use it consistently with these terms and applicable law. If you do not agree, please discontinue use.
The website is primarily intended to provide information about Chambers, its professionals, practice areas and published legal analysis. Separate terms of engagement, agreed directly with Chambers, govern any professional appointment.
2. General information is not legal advice
Content on this website, including Ask Chambers, legal analysis, regulatory intelligence, practice guides and frequently asked questions, is provided for general information. It is not an opinion on the circumstances of a particular person, a substitute for advice on current law, or an instruction to take or refrain from any legal step.
Legal rules, jurisdiction, procedural requirements and regulatory notifications may change; material may be incomplete or superseded. Always consult the applicable legislation, rules, official instruments and competent professional advice before acting, especially where a limitation period, filing deadline, personal liberty, property right or regulatory obligation is involved.
3. No professional relationship by browsing or submission
Reading the site, sending a form, emailing a preliminary enquiry, interacting with a professional profile or receiving a general response does not, by itself, establish an advocate–client relationship, a duty to act, or an obligation to maintain a particular deadline.
Chambers may accept an instruction only after appropriate conflict checks, confirmation of the scope of work and other engagement arrangements. Until such acceptance is communicated, do not assume that anyone at Chambers is monitoring a court date, appeal period, regulatory deadline or other time-sensitive matter.
4. Contact forms and confidentiality
Only submit information that is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you are entitled to provide. You must not disclose information belonging to another person or organisation without a proper basis.
Public contributions to Ask Chambers should contain no confidential instructions, privileged correspondence, identity numbers, credentials, payment-card information or sensitive personal details. A message entered in a public discussion may be reviewed and published in edited or anonymised form. For private legal instructions, contact Chambers directly and obtain confirmation of a suitable means of communication.
5. Acceptable use and security
You must not submit spam, impersonate anyone, post defamatory or unlawful content, infringe privacy or intellectual-property rights, introduce malware, attempt unauthorised access, scrape or reproduce substantial website content without permission, circumvent anti-bot measures, or use scripts to overwhelm the website.
We may filter, rate-limit, reject, restrict or remove content and access where reasonably necessary for security, moderation, privacy, legal compliance or orderly operation. We may refer credible unlawful conduct to competent authorities where required or permitted by law.
6. User contributions and moderation
You retain whatever rights you lawfully hold in your original contribution. By submitting material to a public feature, you grant Chambers a non-exclusive permission to store, review, edit for clarity and privacy, reproduce and display that contribution as part of the feature, without payment, to the extent needed to operate and archive the discussion.
Publication is not guaranteed. Chambers may withhold, anonymise, edit or remove contributions that are repetitive, promotional, irrelevant, inaccurate, harmful, legally questionable or inconsistent with these terms. Approved contributions represent the contributor’s views unless expressly stated otherwise.
7. Copyright and permitted use
Unless stated otherwise, the site’s text, layout, visual design, original commentary, logos and associated material are owned by or used with permission of their relevant rights holders. You may read, save or print a reasonable portion for personal reference with attribution, but may not republish, commercially exploit, systematically extract or misleadingly attribute our work without prior written permission.
Public legislation, judgments, notifications and other official materials remain subject to their own legal status and source conditions; links and citations do not transfer ownership of third-party content to Chambers.
8. External sources and website availability
Links to government, judicial, professional and commercial websites are provided for convenience and source verification. They do not necessarily indicate endorsement. Chambers cannot control the accuracy, availability, security or terms of third-party sites.
We aim to maintain a reliable website but may change content, suspend features, restrict public submissions or perform maintenance without guaranteeing uninterrupted availability. Nothing on the website promises a particular legal outcome.
9. Liability and governing law
To the extent allowed by applicable law, Chambers does not accept responsibility for loss arising solely from reliance on general, non-client-specific material instead of obtaining professional advice. Nothing in these terms excludes a responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded, or limits duties owed under an accepted professional engagement.
These website terms are governed by the laws of Pakistan. Subject to any mandatory statutory forum or rule of jurisdiction, disputes concerning use of the website may be brought before courts of competent jurisdiction in Islamabad, Pakistan.
10. Changes and contact
Chambers may amend these terms to reflect changes in its website, services or applicable law. Continued use following publication of amended terms signifies use under the then-current version.
For questions regarding these terms, write to contact@92chambers.com.
