1. Purpose of this website
pradharakotambage.com is intended primarily as a legal-knowledge and legal-literacy platform. Its purpose is to make aspects of Sri Lankan law easier to understand in everyday life and to provide general information about law, legal processes and dispute resolution.
2. General information — not legal advice
Material on this website is provided for general information only. It is not legal advice for any particular person, dispute, transaction, case or set of facts.
Legal rights and remedies can depend on details that cannot be addressed fully in a general article, including dates, documents, evidence, procedural history, applicable legislation and later changes in the law. A reader should not make or avoid a significant legal decision solely on the basis of material published here.
3. No Attorney-at-Law/client relationship
Reading, using or sharing material from this website does not create an Attorney-at-Law/client relationship. Sending an email, making a telephone call or otherwise contacting Pradhara Kotambage through contact details published on the website does not, by itself, create such a relationship either.
4. Accuracy and currency
Reasonable care is taken to present information clearly and accurately. However, laws, regulations, court procedures, institutional practices and published sources may change. Material may therefore become outdated, incomplete or inapplicable to a particular situation.
Where a page gives a review or update date, that date indicates when the material was last reviewed for the website. It is not a guarantee that no relevant change has occurred afterwards.
5. Official sources
This website is independent and is not an official publication of the courts, Parliament, a government department or any other public authority. Where possible, readers are directed to official sources for legislation, judgments, gazettes and institutional information.
6. External websites
Links to external websites are provided for convenience and reference. External websites are maintained by their respective institutions or operators. Their content, availability, security and privacy practices are outside the control of this website, and a link should not be understood as an endorsement of all material appearing on the external site.
7. Dispute-resolution material
Information about negotiation, settlement, mediation and arbitration is educational in nature. References to these processes do not amount to a representation that a particular process is suitable for every dispute, nor do they constitute an offer of a particular dispute-resolution service unless expressly stated otherwise in the future.
8. Use of website content
Unless otherwise indicated, original text and presentation on this website are published by Pradhara Kotambage. Short quotations and links for personal, educational or non-commercial reference are welcome provided the source is acknowledged and the material is not presented in a misleading way.
Substantial reproduction, republication or commercial reuse should not be undertaken without prior permission, except where permitted by applicable law.
9. Professional responsibility
The website is intended to provide legal information and professional identification in a measured manner. Nothing on the website should be read as a guarantee of an outcome, a claim of superiority over another legal professional, or a promise that any particular matter will be accepted.
10. Changes to the website and these terms
The website may be expanded, revised or reorganised over time. These Terms & Disclaimer may also be updated to reflect changes in content, technology or the way the website operates. The date above will be revised when material changes are made.
