Parabellum provides services as a litigation financier, also known as a third-party litigation funder (the “Services”). This Website is for informational purposes only, does not create an attorney-client or other legal relationship, does not constitute a solicitation of litigation, and does not constitute a complete description of Parabellum’s Services. The use of Parabellum’s Services requires agreement to these Terms of Use, and may also require the execution of other legal documents that may supplement, modify, alter, or supersede these Terms of Use.
Parabellum is not a law firm or legal services organization. Parabellum is not engaged in the practice of law or the provision of legal services. None of the information contained on this Website is or should be construed as legal advice. By providing information to Parabellum through the Website or otherwise, you are not establishing an attorney-client relationship with Parabellum. Information on the Website is intended for general informational purposes only and may be used only as a starting point for thinking about legal issues. Viewing or accessing information from the Website does not create an attorney-client relationship with Parabellum or any attorney.
Parabellum is not a lawyer-referral service. Parabellum is not affiliated with any attorneys or law firms. No attorneys or law firms offer legal services through the Website or pay marketing fees to Parabellum. Parabellum does not market any services of any particular attorneys.

No element of Parabellum’s compensation for its Services relates to, depends upon, or is contingent upon the retention or employment of any particular attorneys or law firms.
Retaining an attorney or law firm is an important decision that should be based on a client’s overall evaluation of that attorney or firm and not exclusively on third-party statements. Attorneys and law firms with whom Parabellum has worked or has been in contact are not inherently or necessarily more qualified than other attorneys. To the extent an attorney or law firm is retained in connection with the use of Parabellum’s Services, that attorney or firm – and not Parabellum – is solely responsible for any and all legal advice rendered. Information on the Website is not a substitute for a consultation with an attorney about specific legal issues.
