== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How do I add a consultation request form? =
LT Lexford has no built-in form. Point the "Book a consultation" buttons to your booking system, or add the block from your form plugin (WPForms, Fluent Forms, Contact Form 7…) to the Contact page. Ask visitors not to send confidential documents through the form.

= Can I use the sample reviews? =
No. They are placeholders. Replace them with real client reviews you have permission to publish and that your local attorney advertising rules allow, or remove the section. Keep the disclaimer under the reviews.

= Are the fees real? =
No, they are examples. Edit them in the Fees pattern or remove the section.

= Does the theme include legal notices? =
It includes placeholder notices ("Attorney advertising", "This website does not provide legal advice", "Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome"). Check the exact wording your jurisdiction and bar or law society require.
