AI and Legal Disclaimer
Effective July 14, 2026
MatterLynx is software, not legal advice
MatterLynx is a technology service. MatterLynx and its AI-assisted features do not provide legal advice, legal representation, professional opinions, or a substitute for a licensed lawyer's judgment. Using MatterLynx does not create an attorney-client relationship with MatterLynx or its operators.
AI output can be wrong
AI assistants can misunderstand instructions, omit information, invent facts or citations, use stale information, and propose the wrong action. MatterLynx can also receive incomplete, delayed, or inaccurate data from connected services. You must independently verify every material output.
You remain responsible
Your firm remains responsible for client work, professional duties, supervision, competence, confidentiality, privilege, conflicts, deadlines, filings, notices, trust accounting, billing, and record accuracy. Review the exact target and content before approving an action. Confirm important changes directly in Clio or the applicable system of record.
Do not rely on MatterLynx for emergencies or deadlines
Do not use MatterLynx as your only docket, calendar, backup, filing, deadline, or emergency system. Do not assume that a missing alert means no action is required. Use independent controls for court dates, statutes of limitation, filing deadlines, client funds, and other high-consequence obligations.
Connected services have separate rules
Information sent to Clio, ChatGPT, Claude, or another provider is also governed by that provider's terms and privacy practices. Your firm must decide whether each provider is appropriate for its data, clients, jurisdiction, and professional duties. MatterLynx cannot guarantee the availability, accuracy, security, or data handling of a third-party service.
