Last Updated: January 19, 2026.
This Privacy Policy explains how the Julian Bendinelli Law Firm (“the Firm,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards personal information when you visit our website, contact us, subscribe to updates, or communicate with us by phone, email, chat, or SMS/text. By using our site or providing information, you agree to this Policy. This Policy is intended for visitors and clients in Colorado and may also be relevant to visitors from other locations.
Using this website or contacting us does not create an attorney-client relationship. That relationship is formed only after a direct consultation and a signed written agreement. Information you submit before a signed agreement may not be treated as confidential or privileged. Existing clients’ information may be protected by attorney-client privilege and professional confidentiality obligations, subject to applicable law.
We use personal information to evaluate and manage potential and active legal matters; respond to inquiries and schedule consultations; send communications you agree to receive (e.g., case updates, newsletters); operate, secure, and improve our website and services; perform analytics; comply with legal and ethical obligations; and protect our rights, our clients, and the public. We do not sell personal information, and do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.
We use cookies and similar technologies to enable features, remember preferences, measure traffic, and improve user experience. You can adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies; some features may not function properly without them. We may use analytics tools that process pseudonymous usage data. Some browsers offer Do-Not-Track signals; there is no uniform standard, but when your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as a request to limit processing for activities covered by Colorado law to the extent required.
If you provide a mobile number and opt in, we may send you text messages related to your inquiry or legal matter (for example, intake coordination, appointment reminders, case status updates, or resources you request). You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to a message; for help, contact us at info@cotrialattorneys.com or 303-720-6490 for questions. Message and data rates may apply. We do not sell your mobile number or use it for unsolicited marketing. We may use a third-party SMS provider to deliver messages on our behalf. Please avoid sending highly sensitive information by text; we can provide secure alternatives.
Compliance note: We send texts in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and industry standards. Review SMS Terms & Conditions.
We share personal information with Firm personnel, contractors, service providers, and professional advisors who need it to assist with intake, communications, technology, analytics, marketing communications you opt into, or legal services, and who are bound by confidentiality or contractual obligations. We may disclose information to courts, regulators, opposing counsel, law enforcement, or other parties when required by law, subpoena, court order, or to protect rights and safety. In a business transition (e.g., merger or acquisition), information may be transferred as permitted by law and remain subject to this Policy.
Colorado residents may have the right to confirm whether we process their personal data; access and obtain a portable copy; correct inaccuracies; and request deletion, subject to legal and ethical exceptions (e.g., privileged information, litigation holds, and records we must retain). Residents may also opt out of processing for targeted advertising, the sale of personal data, or profiling in furtherance of decisions with legal or similarly significant effects. We do not sell personal data.
To exercise your rights, contact info@cotrialattorneys.com or 303-720-6490. We will verify requests and respond within the timelines required by law, typically within 45 days. You may designate an authorized agent; we may require proof of authorization and identity verification. If we decline to act, you may appeal by emailing info@cotrialattorneys.com with “CPA Appeal” in the subject line; we will respond within 45 days and explain how to contact the Colorado Attorney General if you remain concerned. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
We are not a HIPAA “covered entity” or “business associate.” We treat health-related information with care and prefer to receive such records through secure, encrypted means. Do not transmit protected health information, government IDs, or full financial account numbers via unencrypted email or SMS. Information exchanged during a formal engagement may be protected by attorney-client privilege or the work-product doctrine, subject to applicable law.
If you apply for a position, we process the information you provide (résumé, contact details, qualifications, work history) to evaluate your candidacy and comply with law. For vendors, we process contact and payment information to manage our relationship. Interactions on social platforms are also governed by the platform’s own privacy policy.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. If a security incident may have compromised your information, we will investigate and provide notifications as required by law.
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including evaluating potential matters, providing legal services, meeting professional obligations, complying with legal requirements, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, marketing, and enforcing agreements. When no longer needed, information is deleted or de-identified consistent with our retention policies and applicable law.
Our website and systems operate in the United States. If you access the site from outside the U.S., your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the U.S., where privacy laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction.
For convenience, our website may link to third-party sites. We are not responsible for their content, security, or privacy practices. Review those sites’ privacy policies before providing information.
We are committed to making our website and policies accessible. If you need this Policy in an alternative format or require assistance, please contact info@cotrialattorneys.com or 303-720-6490.
We may update this Policy from time to time. The most current version will be posted on this page with the Last Updated Date above. Your continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
