Autonomy Document Preparation Service
13. Autonomy Service Terms
13.1 Nature of Service. Autonomy is a document preparation service operated by Michigan Family Law Solutions. Autonomy is not a law firm, does not practice law, and is not a substitute for the advice of an attorney. Autonomy assists users in preparing legal documents based on information provided by the user. By using Autonomy, you acknowledge and agree that no attorney-client relationship is created between you and Michigan Family Law Solutions, its owners, employees, or affiliates.
13.2 No Legal Advice. Autonomy does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, legal recommendations, or legal strategy. The information and documents generated by Autonomy are based solely on the factual information you provide. Autonomy does not evaluate the merits of your case, advise you on potential outcomes, or recommend a particular course of action. Any general information provided through the platform is for educational purposes only and should not be construed as legal advice.
13.3 User Responsibility. You are solely responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all information you provide to Autonomy. You are responsible for reviewing all documents generated by Autonomy for accuracy before filing them with any court or providing them to any other party. Michigan Family Law Solutions is not liable for errors or omissions in documents resulting from inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading information provided by the user.
13.4 Recommendation to Consult an Attorney. Autonomy is designed for individuals who wish to prepare their own legal documents. If your situation involves contested custody, significant assets, domestic violence, complex financial issues, or any other circumstances that may require professional legal judgment, you are strongly encouraged to consult a licensed Michigan attorney. A directory of Michigan attorneys is available through the State Bar of Michigan Lawyer Referral Service.
13.5 Michigan-Specific Compliance. Autonomy operates in compliance with Michigan law regarding legal document preparation services. Pursuant to MCR 8.120 and related Michigan court rules, document preparation services may assist individuals in completing court forms based on information provided by the individual, but may not select forms on behalf of the individual, advise the individual on legal rights or remedies, or engage in activities that constitute the unauthorized practice of law under MCL 600.916. Autonomy operates within these boundaries. If you believe that any feature of Autonomy exceeds the scope of permissible document preparation, please contact us immediately.
13.6 Disclaimer Acknowledgment. Before using Autonomy, you will be required to acknowledge that you understand the limitations of the service as described in this Section 13. Your continued use of Autonomy after such acknowledgment constitutes your ongoing agreement to these terms.
