ARTICLE 5: LEGALPRO+ PROVIDED SERVICES
5.1 The specific terms governing LegalPro+ Third-Party Service Providers, other than LegalPro+ online Services, may be set out in additional terms or a separate agreement. For LegalPro+' Provided Services, LegalPro+ is the service provider contracting directly with you.
5.2 LegalPro+ is free to decide to accept or decline a service Consultation and/or Booking request. Acceptance is communicated to you through LegalPro+'s mobile App(s)/Website(s) and the related terms or agreement will set out when a direct contract forms between you and LegalPro+.
ARTICLE 6: THIRD PARTY SERVICES
6.1 For Third Party Services, LegalPro+ acts as a disclosed agent between you and the Third Party Service Providers ("TPSP") to enable them to provide the Third Party Services to you. LegalPro+ does not provide Third Party Services. All TPSPs are independent third party contractors, registered businesses or other legal entities who are not employed by or acting on behalf of LegalPro+.
6.2 When you are logged in, online and in the service area of a TPSP you will be given information in LegalPro+’s mobile applications and/or websites about the legal services before you decide to make a Consultation and/or Booking request.
6.3 TPSPs are free to decide to accept, reject or revise a request. Their response is communicated to you through LegalPro+s mobile applications and/or websites and, once accepted, will give rise to a direct contract between you and the assigned TPSP (for the allocated Consultation and/or Booking Service).
6.4 You may be asked to rate the TPSP whose services you requested. The TPSP may also be able to give you a rating. Although your rating by itself will not make you lose access to LegalPro+’s App(s)/Website(s) Services and/or Products. The TPSP may see your rating in LegalPro+’s mobile applications and/or websites and this rating may affect whether or not they decide to provide Consultation and/or Booking services to you.
6.5 LegalPro+ is not held liable for any faulty action or Breach of contract between Third-party Users (User Clients and/or TPSPs). The TPSP holds sole responsibility for any obligations that may arise from the provision of the Consultation and/or Booking Services they accepted and the User Client is held responsible to whatever contract they sign with TPSP.
ARTICLE 7: CHARGES AND PAYMENT
7.1 Payment for Legal Services Rendered Through LegalPro+ and External Affiliated Entities
7.1.1 By initiating a Consultation and/or Booking service request via the digital platforms of LegalPro+ – either through its mobile applications or official websites – you hereby consent to shoulder the relevant financial obligations delineated within the platform's fee structure. You are liable for any financial liabilities or associated fees that accrue to your Client User account.
7.1.2 The exact amount payable for the services provided by LegalPro+ or its affiliate third parties can vary based on several parameters, one of which might be the geographical location of the Consultation and/or Booking service. While in certain situations, the potential charges are visibly listed on the LegalPro+ digital platforms prior to any service request, in other instances, the fee could be contingent on the extent and nature of the legal services utilized directly rendered by LegalPro+. While we may proffer a preliminary cost estimate for the Consultation and/or Booking services, it's pivotal to recognize that the ultimate invoice might deviate from this preliminary projection.
7.1.3 You might be subjected to ancillary fees, financial liabilities, or punitive fines due to your engagement – or potential misuse – of the services offered by LegalPro+ or its third-party associates, which might encompass miscellaneous charges.
7.1.4 In certain scenarios, should the services offered by LegalPro+ or its third-party associates be rendered non-executable due to any action or inaction on your part – such as a failure to endorse the service delivery or finalize the associated payment – the corresponding charges might still be levied in full.
7.1.5 Upon the successful completion of the requested service, whether by LegalPro+ directly or an external service provider, you may receive an official invoice. This invoice might encompass not only the service charges but also any pertinent local or federal tax obligations.
7.2 For a more comprehensive understanding of the service-specific charges, ancillary fees, financial obligations, or potential penalties, we recommend perusing the 'Support' or 'Help' section within the digital platforms of LegalPro+.
7.3 Be apprised that the charge structures delineated on the LegalPro+ digital platforms might undergo periodic revisions.
7.4 The fees listed do not encompass gratuities. Should the option be available, you have the liberty to disburse gratuities via the LegalPro+ digital platforms. We, at LegalPro+, will duly collect and forward these gratuities to the respective TPSP on your behalf.
7.5 Barring any alternate arrangements, all financial liabilities arising from service requests are payable upfront. LegalPro+ will process these payments using the primary payment method linked to your user account. Upon successful transaction completion, LegalPro+ will furnish you with a digital receipt, either via SMS and/or email. If for any reason the primary payment method is rendered invalid, LegalPro+ reserves the right to access any secondary payment methods listed on your account. Should all payment methods fail, LegalPro+ retains the right to persistently attempt transaction completion until successful payment is realized.
7.6 Unless explicitly mentioned otherwise, the listed charges are inclusive of any and all pertinent tax obligations.
ARTICLE 8: CANCELLATION
8.1 In some cases, you do not have the right to cancel the request for the LegalPro+ Provided Services and Third Party Services once it has been accepted. However, for certain LegalPro+ Provided Services or Third Party Services, LegalPro+ or the TPSP (as appropriate) may allow you to cancel the request, but you may be charged a cancellation fee.
8.2 LegalPro+ may refuse requests and cancel the Consultation and/or Booking Services if there is reasonable doubt about the correctness or authenticity of the request or about the contact information. In this case too, a cancellation fee may be charged. We may also end any contract in place between you and LegalPro+.
8.3 See the Cancellation Policy for Consultation and/or Booking at LegalPro+.

9.2 If we terminate or suspend your account for any reason, you are prohibited from registering and creating a new account under your name, a fake or borrowed name, or the name of any third party, even if you may be acting on behalf of the third party. In addition to terminating or suspending your account, we reserve the right to take appropriate legal action, including without limitation pursuing civil, criminal, and injunctive remedies.

ARTICLE 14: GOVERNING LAW
14.1 These Terms and your use of the Site are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. If you live outside of the United States of America you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the Services in either the U.S. or the Local courts where your Consultation and/or Booking was requested.
ARTICLE 15: DISPUTE RESOLUTION
15.1 Dispute Resolution: Any dispute or claim between you and LegalPro+ arising from or related to these Terms or our Services shall be resolved through individual action only. You agree that disputes will not be pursued as class arbitrations, class actions, or any other representative proceedings. References to "LegalPro+," "you," and "us" include our subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, business partners, shareholders, predecessors, successors, assigns, and all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of our services or products, including those named in estate planning documents.
15.2 Resolution Process: Most concerns can be resolved by contacting our Customer Care Center at (727-755-3425) using the contact details in the “About Us” section above. In the unlikely event that we cannot resolve the dispute, we will work with you to discuss a way forward to resolve the dispute, which may include mediation. LegalPro+'s right to refer the dispute to a court is expressly reserved. LegalPro+ does not commit to using an online dispute resolution platform to resolve consumer disputes. If our Customer Care Center cannot resolve your complaint to your satisfaction, or if we cannot resolve a dispute informally, we would ask you to raise a complaint FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS SET FORTH IN ARTICLE 15. Except for (i) individual actions in small claims court in the county of your billing address or (ii) actions in court seeking injunctive or other equitable relief for alleged intellectual property infringement or misappropriation, you and LegalPro+ waive your rights to a jury trial and agree to have any disputes resolved in court. Disputes include those related to these Terms or our Services, as well as matters concerning advertising, privacy, data security, and website use. This Arbitration Agreement applies to disputes based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, including disputes arising before you accepted these Terms or any prior agreements.
15.3 Arbitration Procedures: If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, either party may submit it to binding confidential arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) or, under specific circumstances, to court. All disputes submitted to AAA will be resolved through binding arbitration before one arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings will be held in Miami-Dade, Florida, unless the parties agree otherwise. If you are a Consumer, you may elect to hold arbitration in your county of residence. Consumer disputes will follow AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules, while non-Consumer disputes will follow AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. The parties acknowledge that Coordinated Filings may impede dispute resolution efficiency and agree not to engage in such filings.
15.4 Individualized Proceedings and Remedies: These Terms affect interstate commerce and will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act to the fullest extent permitted by law. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority over procedural and substantive decisions, including the enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over class or representative proceedings.
15.5 Confidentiality: Arbitration allows for the exchange of relevant non-privileged information. Both parties agree to seek protection for confidential, proprietary, or sensitive information exchanged during arbitration. Such protection shall be sought before any exchange of such materials occurs.
15.6 Payment of Arbitration Fees: The arbitration fees will follow the fee schedules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), available at adr.org/Rules. If you are a Consumer initiating arbitration of a Dispute, you agree to cover the applicable AAA Consumer Case Filing Fee, while LegalPro+ will cover the remaining AAA fees and costs. For non-Consumer-initiated arbitrations valued at less than $75,000, you agree to pay $250 towards arbitration filing fees, and LegalPro+ will cover the remaining AAA fees and costs. In cases where the arbitration proceeding is valued at $75,000 or more and you are not a Consumer, the costs and fees of AAA Commercial Arbitration will be shared equally between you and LegalPro+. However, if the arbitrator deems your claim or relief sought to be frivolous or improper, all AAA fees will be governed by the applicable AAA Rules.
15.7 Opt Out of Arbitration: You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of accepting the terms of this Article 15. To opt out, send a written Notice of Opt Out via U.S. certified mail to LegalPro+ at . The Notice of Opt Out must be addressed to: Notice of Opt Out, General Counsel, LegalPro+ LLC, 1661 West Avenue, Miami BEach Florida, 33139. A courtesy copy of the Notice should also be sent by email to [email protected]. Your opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out, you agree to resolve Disputes in accordance with our Terms and conditions, with the understanding that any such action will be pursued individually and not as a class arbitration, class action, or any other representative proceeding.
15.8 Additional Terms: In the event that any portion of this Article 15 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful, the offending provision will be severed from these Terms, and the remainder of Article 15 will remain in effect. Claims that must proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis will be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, with litigation of such claims stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. If seeking public injunctive relief against LegalPro+, such claim must be brought in court in accordance with the provisions of our Governing Law & Venue. Any dispute arising from these Terms and your use of the Services or the Site will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with Florida laws, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of Florida or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of Florida and the United States, respectively, sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida. You consent to personal and exclusive jurisdiction in these courts.
15.9 Jurisdiction: You and LegalPro+ agree that the state or federal courts of the State of Florida and the United States sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida have exclusive jurisdiction over the enforcement of an arbitration award made pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement.
15.10 Additional Terms and User Content: Some LegalPro+ Services may be subject to additional guidelines, rules, or terms of service ("Additional Terms"). Your use of such Services will be conditioned on your agreement to the Additional Terms. If there is any conflict between these Terms of Use and the Additional Terms, the Additional Terms will control for that Service, unless expressly stated otherwise. Contributions to, access to, and use of User Content are subject to the terms and conditions outlined herein.
