Privacy Policy

Effective Date:September 14, 2026Last Updated:September 14, 2026

Ironside Criminal Defense (“Ironside,” “the Firm,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information through our website, www.ironsidecriminaldefense.com (the “Site”). This policy is designed to comply with South Carolina legal ethics guidelines and applicable state and federal laws.

1.No Attorney-Client Relationship

IMPORTANT: Using this Site, or sending an email, text message, or “Contact Us” form to Ironside or any individual attorney at the Firm, does not create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship is formed only when you have signed an engagement letter with Ironside.

Please do not send confidential or sensitive information through this Site, by email, or by text message until that relationship has been established. If you are under investigation or have been charged with a crime, do not describe the facts of your case, any statements you made to law enforcement, or any evidence in a web form or email.

Information sent before a formal attorney-client relationship exists may not be privileged or confidential under South Carolina Rule of Professional Conduct 1.6.

2.Attorney Advertising Notice

Under the South Carolina Rules of Professional Conduct (Rule 7.1), this website may be considered attorney advertising. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Any testimonial or endorsement on this Site is not a guarantee, warranty, or prediction of the outcome of your legal matter. Every criminal case depends on its own facts.

3.Collection of Information

We collect information through our Site to improve the user experience and provide legal information.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information: We automatically collect data such as your IP address, browser type, and operating system through automatic log files and cookies.

Personally Identifiable Information: We collect personal information (such as your name, email address, or phone number) only when you voluntarily provide it through contact forms, consultation requests, or other inquiries.

4.Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and clear GIFs (web beacons) to track Site usage, estimate traffic, and improve functionality.

Cookies: Small files stored on your device that help us recognize repeat visitors. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some Site features may be limited.

Third-Party Analytics: We may use third-party service providers to analyze Site traffic. These providers are prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than providing services to the Firm.

5.Use and Sharing of Information

Internal Use: We use your information to respond to inquiries, schedule consultations, send communications you have opted in to, and improve our marketing efforts.

No Sale of Data: Ironside does not sell, rent, or lease its user lists to third parties.

Affiliated Firms: Ironside is owned by Chris Carsten, owner of Armada Law, and is a practicing attorney in South Carolina. We may share information with Armada Law or other affiliated firms for administrative, operational, or research purposes. Any affiliate that receives your information is held to the same confidentiality and ethical obligations described in this policy.

Third-Party Disclosure: Other than as described above, we will not share your personal information with third parties except:

  1. With your express consent, including when we refer your matter to another attorney or law firm.
  2. As required by law or court order, consistent with our ethical obligations.
  3. To protect the rights or property of Ironside.

6.Security of Data

We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access. Data is stored on limited-access servers behind a firewall. No data transmission over the internet is 100% secure, however. By using this Site, you acknowledge that you provide your information at your own risk.

7.Children's Privacy

In compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), this Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are contacting us about a juvenile matter, a parent or legal guardian should submit the inquiry on the minor's behalf.

9.Accessing and Updating Your Information

You may contact us at any time to review, update, or correct the personal information we have on file for you. If you receive marketing communications from us, you can opt out at any time by following the instructions in the email.

10.Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy. If we make significant changes, we will post a notice on our homepage. Your continued use of the Site after those changes means you agree to the updated terms.

What happens next

You will know where you stand
before you hang up

  1. 01

    You tell us what happened

    In your own words, at your own pace. We will ask questions, and some of them will be uncomfortable. Nothing you say surprises us.

  2. 02

    We tell you what you are facing

    What the charge actually means, how it is usually handled, and what is realistic. Including the parts you would rather not hear.

  3. 03

    You leave with a plan

    What we intend to do, what we need from you, and what happens on what date. You should never be surprised by a result.

  4. 04

    We start before the prosecutor does

    We make the first move, so the prosecutor reviewing your file sees a person with a story rather than a name on a warrant.

On costCost is usually the first question, and we answer it before you decide anything. If your case goes to trial, our fee does not go up.

A charge doesn't have to define your future
