Terms and Conditions
Updated September 2026
These terms govern your use of workerwisdom.com. By using the site, you agree to them. If you don’t, please don’t use the site.
This Site Does Not Provide Legal Advice
Worker Wisdom℠ publishes general information about employment law. It is not legal advice.
Reading this site, sending a message through it, or subscribing to the newsletter does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and New England Human Capital LLC, Alicia Lillegard, or anyone else associated with this site. No such relationship is formed unless and until it is confirmed in a signed written engagement agreement.
Communications sent through this site are not privileged and are not treated as confidential. Do not send confidential information about your situation through this website.
Employment law varies substantially from state to state and changes frequently. Articles describe general principles as of the date they were written or last updated, and general principles may not apply to your circumstances. For advice about your own situation, consult an employment attorney licensed in your state.
No Offer of Legal Services
This site is not an advertisement for legal services and is not a solicitation for clients. Alicia Lillegard is licensed to practice law in Illinois. Nothing on this site is intended to constitute the practice of law in any jurisdiction where she is not licensed, and nothing here should be read as an offer to represent you.
We Are Not a Lawyer Referral Service
This site links to third-party resources, including bar association directories and attorney membership directories. Those links are provided for convenience only.
We do not operate a lawyer referral service. We do not recommend, endorse, or vouch for any attorney, firm, or organization listed in those directories, and we receive nothing of value — no fee, commission, or other consideration — for any such link or listing. Choosing a lawyer is your decision, and you should evaluate any attorney’s qualifications and fee arrangements yourself.
Accuracy and Currency
We make a genuine effort to be accurate and to keep articles current, and articles carry the date they were last updated. Even so, laws change, agencies revise their guidance, and courts issue decisions that shift the analysis. An article that was accurate when written may not be accurate when you read it.
Nothing on this site should be relied on without confirming it against current law or with a licensed attorney. If you find something that is wrong or out of date, please tell us.
Content and Copyright
All content on this site — articles, images, graphics, and design — is owned by New England Human Capital LLC or used with permission, and is protected by copyright and trademark law. Worker Wisdom℠ is a service mark of New England Human Capital LLC.
You may read, print, and share articles for your own personal, non-commercial use, and quote brief passages with attribution and a link to the original article.
You may not republish articles in whole or in substantial part, sell or license the content, remove or alter copyright or attribution notices, use the content to train machine learning or artificial intelligence systems, or scrape, crawl, or harvest the site by automated means other than ordinary search engine indexing.
For permission to republish or to quote at length, contact us.
Comments and Submissions
Comments are welcome. By posting one you grant New England Human Capital LLC a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual license to display, reproduce, and moderate it in connection with the site.
Comments are moderated. We may edit, decline, or remove any comment at our discretion, and we generally remove anything that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, discriminatory, commercial, or spam.
Please don’t post confidential information, information that identifies your employer or coworkers in a way that could harm you, or details of an ongoing legal matter. Comments are public, permanent, and can be read by anyone — including people you work with.
Comments are the views of the people who write them, not ours, and we don’t verify what commenters say. A response to a comment is general information, not legal advice, and does not create an attorney-client relationship.
Advertising
This site displays third-party advertising. Advertisements are selected by the advertising networks described in our Privacy Policy, not by us, and their presence is not an endorsement of any advertiser or product.
Links to Other Sites
Articles link to government agencies, courts, and other outside websites. We don’t control those sites, aren’t responsible for their content or availability, and linking to one isn’t an endorsement of it. Outside sites have their own terms and privacy policies.
No Warranties
This site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
We don’t warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, New England Human Capital LLC, its members, and its contributors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from your use of this site or your reliance on anything published here — including lost wages, lost opportunities, missed deadlines, or an unfavorable outcome in any legal matter.
Some jurisdictions don’t allow these limitations, in which case they apply to the greatest extent permitted.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless New England Human Capital LLC and its members from any claim arising out of your use of this site, your violation of these terms, or your violation of the rights of any third party.
Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains what information this site collects and how it is used, and is incorporated into these terms.
Changes
We may change these terms at any time. The date at the top shows when they were last revised, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the revised terms.
We may also add, change, or remove content, or discontinue the site, without notice.
Governing Law
These terms are governed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Any dispute arising out of these terms or your use of this site will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Severability
If any provision of these terms is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect.
