Informal Resolution
Before filing any formal legal action, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] to attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy informally.
Arbitration Agreement
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
You and The Atlas Law Firm, PLLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Website (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.
Arbitration Rules
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.
Arbitration Procedures
- A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration
- The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in Texas
- The arbitration will be conducted in Harris County, Texas, unless the parties agree otherwise
- Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA rules
- The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim
Class Action Waiver
YOU AND THE ATLAS LAW FIRM, PLLC AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
Unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
Exceptions to Arbitration
Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring a lawsuit in court solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Website or infringement of intellectual property rights without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute resolution process described above.
Opt-Out Right
You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to: The Atlas Law Firm, PLLC, 11767 Katy Fwy, Ste. 1100, Houston, Texas 77079.
