503 | Why did TBD send me a Prospective Client Application?

To help somebody get justice.

Detail: somebody (ie, a site visitor) sought legal representation [from you and/or other attorneys]; doing so by filling out a free application (via UniApp).

Background: TBD has a list of civil rights attorneys; that list includes you. That list, importantly, was procured from public court records.

Apparently, you've litigated a discrimination case in Florida (probably at DOAH). This is how you made it onto TBD's listing (and, thus, this is the reason you received a Prospective Client Application).

504 | Are there any strings attached to this Prospective Client Application (ie, is TBD seeking a business relationship with me)?

No.

The Prospective Client Application that you received was delivered with no strings attached. It was also delivered free-of-charge. TBD did/does not send you Prospective Client Applications with the aims of entering into a business relationship with you.

TBD is - and always has been - a free/independent entity (please see FAQ 101, and FAQ 201.

505 | Can TBD filter the types of Prospective Client Applications that it sends to me?

Yes.

Just tell TBD (via email and/or otherwise) which types of intake applications you do not want to receive.

Often times, attorneys only want to litigate on certain bases (ie, age, disability, etc.). Plus, some attorneys want geographical restrictions (ie, So-&-So County; or So-&-So City). Other attorneys, in fact, seek total abstinence (usually due to them leaving the area-of-practice). Thus, just tell TBD how you'd like these transmissions to be filtered.
