The Matching Services
Allegro operates the Website which has been established to facilitate introductions between Clients and Legal Professionals for the provision of a wide range of legal services.
Allegro offers you the right to use a platform that enables Members to publish, offer, search for, and engage Services. Clients will be able to generate legal request summaries using the Website’s AI chatbot and search the Website to find potential Legal Professionals. The Website’s algorithms will help identify Legal Professionals who may be able to meet the Client's requirements.
To use the Matching Services, you will be required to accept this Agreement when first using the Website, and an agreement will be formed between you and us for the provision of the Matching Services at that point. You will need to enter into a separate contract (referred to as a Client Contract) with any Legal Professionals you wish to instruct to provide you with Services. See below for more information.
You may review the information you receive from the Legal Professionals, and decide whether to engage a Legal Professional to provide the Services you require. We cannot in any way endorse or confirm that the Legal Professional identified as a result of the Matching Services we offer is able to fulfil your requirements. It will be your sole responsibility to engage with the Legal Professional to establish whether they can meet your requirements prior to you entering into a Client Contract.
If you do engage a Legal Professional to provide the Services, you will become a Client of the Legal Professional and will enter into a Client Contract with them. To clarify, the Services are provided to you by the Legal Professional, and not by Allegro. Allegro is not a party to any Client Contract and under no circumstances will any such contract create an employment or any other service relationship between Allegro and any Client. Allegro is not acting as an agent for any Member.
Allegro does not perform the Services and does not employ individuals to perform the Services. By connecting Clients and Legal Professionals seeking to procure or provide the Services, Allegro operates as an online marketplace that connects Clients with Legal Professionals who wish to provide the Services. Such Services will be supplied pursuant to a Client Contract which will be agreed and entered into between a Client and a Legal Professional without any involvement of Allegro.
While we work hard to ensure our Members have great experiences using Allegro, we do not and cannot control the conduct or performance of Members and do not guarantee: (i) the existence, quality, safety, suitability, or legality of any Member Content or Services; or (ii) the truth or accuracy of any Member Content provided by Members.
The Matching Services will be provided by Allegro using reasonable care and skill. In the case of Allegro’s performance of the Matching Services, unless expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement, all warranties, conditions and other terms implied by law (whether by statute, common law or otherwise) are excluded from this Agreement.

Liability
As noted above, you acknowledge that the contract for the provision of the Services is between you and the Legal Professional. You agree that Allegro does not supervise, direct, control, or monitor the Legal Professional in the performance of any contractual obligations. It is the Legal Professional who is responsible for the provision of the Services to you.
Allegro will have no liability to you in respect of the provision of the Services or your dealings with any of the Legal Professionals who are listed on the Website or introduced to you via the Matching Services. This means that any error or delay in the performance of the Services, any breach of obligations, and any fraudulent misrepresentation made by a Legal Professional directly on the Website, is the full and complete responsibility of each Legal Professional.
You further acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for evaluating and determining the suitability of any Legal Professional, for assessing whether to enter into a Client Contract and, for verifying any information concerning the Legal Professional.
Nothing in this Agreement limits or excludes our liability to you for:
- death or personal injury resulting from our negligence,
- our own fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or
- any other matter for which we are not permitted by law to exclude or limit our liability.
Allegro accepts no liability for the information contained on any third-party websites linked to on our Website and we won't be liable for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Allegro excludes all conditions, warranties, representations or other terms which may apply to the Website or any content on it, whether express or implied.
Subject to clause 7.4 above, Allegro will not be liable to you for any loss or damage, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, even if foreseeable, arising under or in connection with the Matching Services. In particular, we will not be liable for:
- loss of profits, sales, business, or revenue,
- business interruption,
- loss of anticipated savings,
- loss of business opportunity, goodwill or reputation, or
- any indirect or consequential loss or damage.
In recognition of the fact that Allegro is not a party to any Client Contract, you release us from claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with any dispute you have with a Legal Professional. This release includes, for example, any disputes regarding the performance, functions, and quality of the Services provided and requests for refunds based upon disputes. This release will not apply to a claim that Allegro failed to meet our obligations under the Agreement.
The Client will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Allegro, and its respective directors, officers, employees, and representatives against claims, actions, proceedings, losses (including all direct, indirect and consequential losses), damages, expenses and costs (including court costs and reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with the Client’s use of the Matching Services.
General provisions
Allegro may make changes to this Agreement from time to time. You should check these terms and conditions whenever you return to our Website to see whether any changes have been made, as these will be binding on you. We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last updated” date of the Agreement, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. You will be subject to, and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised terms by your continued use of the Website after the date such revised terms are posted.
We may transfer this Agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under this Agreement to another organisation.
You need our consent to transfer any rights you have under this Agreement to someone else. No assignments are valid without our prior consent, which may be requested via email to ally@allegro.law. Any other attempted transfer or assignment will be null and void.
This Agreement does not grant any rights to anyone else. Its provisions are between you and us and cannot be enforced by any third party.

To the extent any provision of this Agreement is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, in whole or in part under applicable law, its illegality, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect the other provisions, which will continue in effect. Each of the paragraphs of this Agreement operates separately.
Even if we delay in enforcing any provision of this Agreement, we can still enforce it later. Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.
