Privacy Policy (Updated May 26, 2026)
Overview
This is the privacy policy of Joyner Law, PC, a Virginia criminal and traffic defense firm with offices in Richmond and Wytheville. It describes what information we collect through this website, how we use it, and what we don’t do with it.
Information we collect
We collect information you give us. If you fill out a contact form, request a consultation, or upload documents through the Resources page, we receive what you submit — typically your name, contact information, and a description of your situation.
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use the site. Analytics collects standard usage information — pages viewed, approximate location based on IP address, device and browser type, referring source, and engagement signals like scrolls, outbound link clicks, and file downloads. We use this in aggregate to improve the site. We do not use Google Analytics to build profiles of identifiable visitors, and we have not enabled advertising or remarketing features. Google’s handling of this data is governed by its privacy policy.
Google Analytics sets first-party cookies on your browser to recognize repeat visits within a session and across sessions. Our web host and our security provider (Cloudflare) also set technical cookies necessary to deliver the site and protect against abuse. We do not use cookies for advertising or for tracking you across other websites.
How we use what you give us
We use the information you submit to:
- Respond to your inquiry
- Schedule a consultation if you request one
- If you become a client, represent you in your case
We do not send marketing emails, newsletters, or other unsolicited communications. We do not share, sell, or rent your information to third parties for their own purposes.
Confidentiality and the attorney-client relationship
Information you share with us while seeking legal representation is treated as confidential under the rules of professional conduct that govern Virginia lawyers. That includes information shared before you become a formal client.
Submitting a form on this website does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship. A formal relationship begins only after we have spoken with you, confirmed that we can represent you, and entered into a signed agreement.
Regardless of whether you become a client, we treat the fact that you contacted us — and what you told us — with discretion.
Document uploads
The Resources page allows prospective clients to upload driving records or other case documents before engagement. Documents you upload are received by email and stored in our internal systems. We treat them with the same discretion we apply to any other prospective-client communication.
If you upload documents and then decide not to engage us, we will retain them only as long as necessary to address any outstanding questions or to meet our professional obligations.
How long we keep things
We retain the information you provide for as long as we need it to serve you or to comply with our legal and professional obligations. Client files are retained in accordance with the Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. If we do, we will post the updated version here and update the date at the top of the page. Substantive changes — anything that affects how we use information you have already shared — will be flagged at the top.
