Text message (SMS) policy
The Law Offices of Harjot Singh Padda (Padda, Benner & Benner, LLC) uses text messaging at (314) 314-9529 to answer people who contact the office and to handle scheduling. This page explains what we send and how to stop it.
What we send
- Replies to a text, call or web request you started.
- Consultation scheduling, confirmations, changes and reminders.
- Requests for information or documents about a matter you asked the firm to look at.
We do not send marketing or promotional texts, and we do not send bulk or broadcast messages. Every text relates to your own inquiry, your appointment, or your matter. We do not text people who have not given us their number, and we do not add numbers to any list.
How to sign up for texts
There are three ways to agree to texts from (314) 314-9529. Consent is not a condition of hiring the firm, and each way is optional.
- On our website. On the contact form, enter your mobile number and check the box that reads “Yes, text me about my inquiry and appointments at the phone number above. (Optional).” The box is never checked for you. If you leave it unchecked, the office replies by email or phone.
- By texting us first. Send any text to (314) 314-9529. That text is your request to talk by text about your inquiry. Our first reply names the firm, confirms you will get texts about your inquiry and appointments, and says: message frequency varies, message and data rates may apply, reply HELP for help or STOP to opt out.
- By phone or in person. Staff ask: “May we text you at this number about your inquiry and appointments? Message frequency varies, message and data rates may apply, and you can reply STOP at any time to opt out or HELP for help. Texts are optional.” Staff text you only if you say yes, and they note the date, time and number in your file. The first text confirms your sign-up with the same disclosures.
Message frequency
Message frequency varies with your inquiry, usually a few messages around a consultation.
Opting out and help
Reply STOP to stop texts at any time; you will receive one confirmation. Reply HELP for help, or call 314-314-9-LAW. Message and data rates may apply. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
Security
Text messages are not a secure channel. Do not send confidential details, documents or deadlines by text.
Privacy
Mobile numbers and text-messaging consent are not shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing. See the privacy policy.
