SMS Messaging Consent

Law Office of Jonathan Y. Newton, LLC offers optional SMS/text messaging for clients and prospective clients. Text messaging is never required. A person receives text messages only after affirmatively checking a separate, unchecked SMS consent box, and providing a mobile telephone number alone does not constitute consent to receive SMS/text messages.

How Consent Is Collected

On the firm's website consultation request form and case intake form, a separate SMS consent checkbox appears next to the disclosure shown below. The box is unchecked by default, is not bundled with any other agreement (retainer agreement, website terms of use, privacy policy, intake authorization, or email consent), and the form can be submitted without checking it.

Exact Disclosure Used on the Website

I agree to receive SMS/text messages from Law Office of Jonathan Y. Newton, LLC regarding my legal inquiry or legal matter, including appointment reminders, court dates, hearings, scheduling, document requests, case status updates, billing or payment matters, and other client-service communications.

Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to unsubscribe at any time. Reply HELP for assistance.

Consent to receive SMS/text messages is optional and is not a condition of hiring the firm, submitting this form, or receiving legal services.

Directly below the checkbox, the form displays links labeled Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

This example is shown for verification only and cannot be submitted from this page.
