IANAL - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | IANAL is a Usenet and chat abbreviation (acronym) for "I am not a lawyer." A similar abbreviation, TINLA, stands for "This is not legal advice." |
 | | Frequently, people start their comments with IANAL to say that they are not a legal professional before stating their opinion. |
 | | A variant of IANAL is IANYL ("I am not your lawyer"), which is used by lawyers when posting comments on message boards to indicate that they are, in fact, attorneys, but they don't represent the reader and their comments are not subject to attorney-client privilege. |
