Dispute Resolution Provisions
The Agreement is considered as being executed and performed in the State of New York, and it is governed and shall be interpreted following New York State laws, disregarding any conflict of law principles.
The parties (and Covered Parties) hereby agree to arbitrate all claims that may arise under the Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, should a dispute arise between you and either PlumberToday™ or any Covered Party concerning the PlumberToday™ Offerings, the terms and conditions of the Agreement or the breach of same by any party hereto: (a) each party agrees to submit its dispute for resolution by arbitration before JAMS, in accordance with the then current General Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS; provided, however, that PlumberToday™ reserves the right to require that any and all User claims be combined and conducted under the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines where there are seventy-five (75) or more arbitration demands pending against PlumberToday™ that are similar to the demand for arbitration submitted by you; and (b) you agree to first commence a formal dispute proceeding by completing and submitting an Initial Dispute Notice which can be found here. The applicable Covered Party(ies) named in the arbitration proceeding (collectively, the “Named Parties”) may choose to provide you with a final written settlement offer after receiving your Initial Dispute Notice (“Final Settlement Offer”).
If the Named Party(ies) provide(s) you with a Final Settlement Offer and you do not accept it, or the applicable Named Party(ies) cannot otherwise satisfactorily resolve your dispute and you wish to proceed, you must submit your dispute for resolution by arbitration before JAMS, in your county of residence, by filing a separate Demand for Arbitration, which is available here. For claims of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or less, you can choose whether the arbitration proceeds in person, by telephone or based only on submissions. If the arbitrator awards you relief that is greater than the applicable Final Settlement Offer, then the applicable Named Party(ies) will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration and, if you retained an attorney to represent you in connection with the arbitration, the applicable Named Party(ies) will reimburse any reasonable attorneys’ fees that your attorney accrued for investigating, preparing and pursuing the claim in arbitration. Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive to the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Although the Named Parties may have a right to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses if they prevail in arbitration, the Named Parties will not seek such an award from you unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous.
Class Action Waiver
To the extent permitted by law, you agree not to initiate, join, or participate in any class action lawsuit against PlumberToday™ and/or any Covered Party regarding any claim, dispute, or controversy that you might have with them. You consent to seek injunctive relief to halt or remove your participation in any such lawsuit.You also agree to bear the attorney’s fees and court costs incurred by PlumberToday™ and/or any Covered Party in seeking this relief. This clause, which prohibits class action lawsuits, does not waive your rights or remedies to pursue claims individually in binding arbitration, as stated above, and is considered a separate agreement.
You have the option to opt-out of these dispute resolution provisions by providing written notice within thirty (30) days of first accessing the Site.
Validity and Enforceability
If any part of the Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that part will be construed in line with applicable law, while the remaining portions will remain in full effect. In case of any conflict between the PlumberToday™ Offerings and the Agreement, the latter takes precedence.
Failure to enforce any part of the Agreement is not a waiver of that provision. The Agreement does not create an agency or partnership relationship. PlumberToday™ may assign its rights and obligations under the Agreement at any time without notice. However, you may not assign or delegate your obligations under the Agreement. Section headings are for reference only.
