Legal
Terms of Use
Welcome. These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your use of landandtaxstrategies.com (the “Site”), which is operated by Land & Tax Strategies, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Land & Tax Strategies,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the Site, including its tax estimator, guides and forms, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
The Site is information, not advice
Everything on the Site is general information about the tax consequences of eminent domain and condemnation awards, Section 1033 of the Internal Revenue Code and related planning. It is provided for educational purposes only. It is not legal, tax, accounting or investment advice, and it is not tailored to your situation. Tax law changes, and how it applies depends on facts we do not know until we talk with you. Do not act, or decline to act, on anything you read here without consulting your own attorney, CPA or qualified tax advisor.
No professional relationship is created by using the Site
Reading the Site, using the estimator, requesting a guide, booking a call or sending us a form does not make you our client and does not create an advisory, accounting or attorney-client relationship. Any engagement begins only when we both sign a written agreement that describes the work and the terms. Until then, please send only what our forms ask for. Information you send before an engagement is handled as our Privacy Policy describes, but it is not protected by any privilege. Some members of our team hold professional licenses, including membership in The Florida Bar; their participation on this Site does not make us a law firm, and we do not represent property owners in condemnation proceedings or negotiate awards.
The tax estimator
The estimator produces a rough, illustrative estimate based on the figures you enter and on simplified assumptions about federal capital gains rates, depreciation recapture and state income tax. It is designed to help you see whether the tax question deserves attention before you sign, not to tell you what you will owe. Specifically:
- It does not account for your full tax return, other income, deductions, losses, the alternative minimum tax, the net investment income tax, local taxes or your particular state’s rules in detail.
- It assumes the numbers you enter are accurate and complete. If they are not, the estimate will be wrong.
- It does not determine whether a taking qualifies for Section 1033 treatment or whether replacement property qualifies. Those are fact-specific questions.
- Its results are not a promise, an opinion or a substitute for a return prepared by a qualified professional.
Use the estimate as a conversation starter with your advisors. We are not responsible for decisions made in reliance on it.
No securities or investment advisory offering
Land & Tax Strategies does not offer, sell or solicit securities, investment advisory services or insurance products, and nothing on the Site is an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security or an offer of investment advisory services. Certain members of our team are separately registered or licensed with unaffiliated firms in their individual capacities; those relationships and the applicable disclosures are described on their biography pages, and any such services are provided only through those firms under their own agreements and disclosures, not through this Site. We accept no referral compensation and offer none.
Forms and what you send us
When you send us information through the Site, you confirm that it is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the right to share it. The Site does not accept document uploads. You agree not to submit anything that contains malicious code, that infringes someone else’s rights or that includes another person’s confidential information without their authorization. We may use what you send us to respond to you and as described in our Privacy Policy. We are not obligated to review, respond to or return unsolicited materials.
Acceptable use
You agree to use the Site only for its intended purpose. You may not: use automated tools to scrape, copy or harvest the Site’s content or forms; submit false, misleading or abusive information through our forms; attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Site or its systems; interfere with the Site’s operation or security; or use the Site in any way that violates applicable law. We may block access to anyone who violates these Terms.
Our content
The Site and its content, including text, graphics, logos, the Land & Tax Strategies name and marks, the estimator and our guides, are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. You may view, download and print pages for your personal or internal professional reference, provided you keep all copyright and other notices intact. You may not republish, sell or create derivative works from our content without our written permission. Names and logos of publications and other companies appearing on the Site belong to their respective owners, and their appearance does not imply endorsement.
Third-party websites and services
The Site links to websites we do not control, such as FINRA BrokerCheck and the sites of publications and firms we mention, and uses a third-party scheduling service for booking calls. We provide these links and services for convenience. We are not responsible for their content, accuracy or privacy practices, and linking to them does not mean we endorse them.
Accuracy and availability
We work to keep the Site accurate and current, but we do not guarantee that it is complete, error-free or up to date, and we may change or remove content at any time without notice. The Site may occasionally be unavailable for maintenance or reasons outside our control.
Disclaimer of warranties
The Site and everything on it are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Land & Tax Strategies, LLC, its members, managers and team members will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, taxes owed, penalties or interest, arising from your use of or inability to use the Site, the estimator or any content on it, even if we were advised of the possibility of such damages. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the greatest extent the law allows. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of these may not apply to you.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Land & Tax Strategies, LLC and its team from claims, losses and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Site.
Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from the Site or these Terms will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Hillsborough County, Florida, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts. If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the revised version here and update the effective date at the top. Your continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the revised Terms.
