These terms govern your use of Upheld ("the app", "the service"). By using Upheld, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not use the app.

What Upheld is

Upheld is a legal information tool. It helps users in England and Wales understand their rights in relation to employment, housing, and contract disputes. It provides general guidance, interactive triage tools, and template documents.

What Upheld is not

Upheld does not provide legal advice. It is not a law firm, and using the app does not create a solicitor-client or barrister-client relationship. The information provided is general in nature and may not apply to your specific circumstances.

If you need advice tailored to your situation, you should consult a qualified solicitor or barrister. Nothing in this app should be treated as a substitute for professional legal advice.

Eligibility

Upheld is intended for users aged 18 and over who are based in England and Wales. The legal information provided relates to the law of England and Wales and may not be applicable in other jurisdictions.

We make every effort to ensure the information in Upheld is accurate and up to date, but the law changes frequently. We do not guarantee that the information is complete, current, or free from error. You should verify any information before acting on it, particularly in relation to deadlines, limitation periods, and procedural requirements.

Documents generated by the app

Upheld provides template documents such as grievance letters, repair notices, and letters before action. These are intended as starting points. You are responsible for reviewing, adapting, and ensuring the suitability of any document before sending or relying on it.

We accept no liability for any consequences arising from the use of documents generated by the app.

Certain features of Upheld use artificial intelligence to provide guidance and draft content. AI-generated output is provided for informational purposes only. It may contain inaccuracies and should always be reviewed before being relied upon.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the app after changes are made constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
