About this practice
William Hill, J.D. is a one-person legal consulting practice based in Sherman Oaks, California. William Hill is not a licensed attorney. Services are provided as a non-attorney law clerk and do not constitute legal advice or representation. For matters requiring an attorney, please consult licensed counsel.
What information we collect
When you call, email, or submit the contact form, we receive only what you choose to share — typically your name, phone number, email address, the service you're interested in, and a short description of your situation. We don't ask for sensitive identifiers (Social Security numbers, account numbers, government IDs) through the website.
The website itself does not run third-party advertising trackers, behavioral profiling, or cross-site analytics.
How we use it
Information you share is used solely to respond to your inquiry, schedule a consultation, and provide the consulting work you've requested. We do not sell, rent, or share your information with marketers.
Confidentiality (and its limits)
Conversations with William are treated as private and confidential as a matter of professional practice. Because William is not your attorney, communications are not protected by attorney–client privilege. For matters where that privilege is essential, we will refer you to licensed counsel before you share sensitive details.
How we communicate
Primary communication is by phone ((818) 675-3932) and email (billhilllaw@yahoo.com). Email is convenient but not inherently secure — please do not send highly sensitive documents by unencrypted email. For sensitive materials, ask about a secure delivery method when we speak.
Service providers
The website is hosted on a managed cloud platform and may use a small number of standard service providers for website hosting, form delivery, and email. These providers process information only to operate the website and deliver your message. If you'd like specifics, ask and we'll tell you what's currently in use.
Retention and deletion
Inquiry messages and consulting notes are kept only as long as needed to serve you and to maintain reasonable business records. You may request that we delete your contact information from our records by emailing billhilllaw@yahoo.com or calling (818) 675-3932. Some records may be retained where required by law or for legitimate business documentation.
Your privacy choices
California residents have rights under California privacy law, including the right to know what personal information we hold about you and to request deletion. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details above and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
Children
This website and these services are intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
Security
We take reasonable, practical steps to protect the information you share — including limiting who has access to it and using a reputable hosting provider. No website or email system can be guaranteed perfectly secure, so please use judgment about what you send through any online channel.
