This is usually used as a "I'm speaking from this context" instead of a "legal" disclaimer.

  Indeed!

  Right, but that is absolutely a misuse, since if anything it's the opposite that's meant, it's a 'claimer' - I claim relevant experience or context through being a lawyer and SE. Again not just boring and nit-picking on something so common where I know what's meant; I was just surprised that a lawyer (i.e. someone so familiar with it) would make that error. (Or use it with that (proscribed) meaning, if you prefer.)

    You're right. Should've been "disclosure" instead. This is one of the reasons why lawyers use templates, as a defense against brain farts where we write "disclaimer" instead of "disclosure."
