Terms of use
The terms that govern your use of the Legal Sheets website and its templates.
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of legalsheets.co.uk (the “Site”), operated by Legal Sheets (“we”, “us”, or “our”). By accessing or using the Site, or by downloading or using any template available on it, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the Site.
1. About Legal Sheets
Legal Sheets is an online resource that provides free UK legal document templates and related general guidance. We are not a law firm, we are not a substitute for a solicitor, and we do not provide legal advice. The templates and information on the Site are provided for general informational purposes only.
2. No legal advice and no solicitor–client relationship
Nothing on the Site constitutes legal advice, and no solicitor–client or other professional relationship is created by your use of the Site or its templates. The content is general in nature and may not apply to your specific circumstances. You should consult a qualified solicitor for advice tailored to your situation, particularly for complex, high-value, or unusual matters. Please also read our Disclaimer.
3. Use of templates
Our templates are provided as starting points to help you prepare common legal documents. You are responsible for:
- Reviewing each template carefully and ensuring it is suitable for your needs;
- Checking that the template reflects the law applicable to your nation (England, Wales, Scotland, or Northern Ireland) and your circumstances;
- Completing, amending, and using the template appropriately; and
- Obtaining professional legal advice where appropriate.
We do not warrant that any template will be suitable, complete, or legally effective for your particular purpose, and you use all templates at your own risk.
4. Intellectual property
Unless otherwise stated, the content on the Site — including text, templates, guidance, graphics, logos, and design — is owned by or licensed to Legal Sheets and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may download and use our templates for your own personal or internal business purposes. You may not, without our prior written permission:
- Resell, redistribute, or commercially exploit our templates or content as your own;
- Republish substantial portions of the Site’s content on another website or platform;
- Use our branding, name, or logo in a way that suggests endorsement or affiliation.
5. Acceptable use
You agree to use the Site lawfully and not to:
- Use the Site or its content for any unlawful or fraudulent purpose;
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Site, its servers, or any connected systems;
- Introduce viruses, malware, or other harmful material;
- Interfere with the proper functioning or security of the Site.
6. Third-party links and advertising
The Site may contain links to third-party websites and resources, including government sources such as legislation.gov.uk and GOV.UK, and may in future display third-party advertising. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party websites or advertisers, and links do not imply endorsement. Your use of third-party sites is at your own risk and subject to their own terms and policies.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Legal Sheets shall not be liable for any loss or damage — whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise — arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Site or any template or information on it. This includes, without limitation, any loss arising from reliance on a template or guidance that proves unsuitable, incomplete, or out of date.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
In short: our templates are free, general-purpose starting points. They are not a replacement for professional legal advice, and you rely on them at your own risk.
8. No warranties
The Site and all content on it are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. While we take care to keep our content accurate and up to date with UK law, we do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the content is complete, accurate, or current at all times.
9. Changes to the Site and these Terms
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time without notice. We may also update these Terms from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised date, and your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
10. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, and you agree that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Site.
