Terms of Service

Not Legal Advice

VirginiaCourtFile.com provides statistics from public court records for informational purposes only. Nothing on this site constitutes legal advice. You should consult a licensed attorney for legal guidance about your specific situation.

Attorney Advertising

The case review form on this site connects you with a participating licensed criminal defense attorney. This constitutes attorney advertising under Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct. VirginiaCourtFile.com is a publication of Virginia court records. The case review form is an attorney advertising service, not a lawyer referral service. We do not currently charge attorneys for these connections, though we may receive compensation from participating attorneys in the future (anticipated as a flat per-lead fee). We do not recommend, endorse, or evaluate any attorney, and any compensation we may receive does not influence which matched attorney handles your case beyond geographic and practice-area fit. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. This service is not endorsed by any government agency.

Attorney Matching Service

When you submit a form on this site, your information may be shared with a participating licensed attorney in your area. We do not guarantee that any attorney will contact you, accept your case, or provide representation. The decision to retain any attorney is solely between you and the attorney, and any fee arrangement is between you and the attorney — separate from any lead-generation fee the attorney may pay us (none is currently being charged).

Data Accuracy

While we strive for accuracy, statistics are derived from public records that may contain errors or omissions. We make no guarantees about the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any data. Always verify critical information with official court records.

No Guarantees

Dismissal rates, conviction rates, and other statistics reflect historical patterns and do not predict future outcomes. Every case is unique.

Use Restrictions

You may not use this site to make decisions about employment, housing, or credit. This site is intended for individuals seeking to understand criminal court patterns for their own cases.

Limitation of Liability

VirginiaCourtFile.com and its operators are not liable for any damages arising from your use of this site, reliance on any statistics or data presented, or any interactions with attorneys matched through our service. This site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Any disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Virginia.

Changes to Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
