Lubin, P.A.), a Florida professional association ("Firm," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Website, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Website.
Please review these Terms carefully. **They include an arbitration agreement and class-action waiver in Section 12 that affect your legal rights.** If you do not agree to those provisions, you may not use the Website.
1. Acceptance of Terms
You accept these Terms by accessing or using the Website. If you are using the Website on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and "you" refers to both you individually and that entity. You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age to use the Website. If you do not meet these requirements, you may not access or use the Website.
2. Attorney Advertising Disclosure
The Website may constitute attorney advertising under the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar. Past results do not guarantee or predict future outcomes. The decision to hire a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely on advertisements. Before you decide, ask us to send you free written information about our qualifications and experience.
3. No Legal Advice; No Attorney-Client Relationship
The information on the Website is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as legal advice. You should consult a licensed attorney for advice regarding your specific situation.
Your access to or use of the Website, your submission of an inquiry through the Website, and any communication with the Firm initiated through the Website do not create an attorney-client relationship between you and the Firm. An attorney-client relationship is established only after (a) the Firm has performed a conflict check and confirmed in writing that it is willing and able to undertake the representation, (b) you and the Firm have executed a written engagement letter setting out the scope of representation, and (c) you have satisfied any retainer or other prerequisites identified in the engagement letter.
Until an attorney-client relationship is formed as described above, **you should not send the Firm any information that you consider confidential or privileged.** Information you transmit through the Website or in any unsolicited communication may not be protected by the attorney-client privilege or work-product doctrine. The Firm may represent parties whose interests are adverse to yours; submitting unsolicited information to the Firm will not disqualify the Firm from representing such parties.

7. Third-Party Links and Resources
The Website may contain links to third-party websites, resources, or services that are not owned or controlled by the Firm. The Firm does not endorse, monitor, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or operations of any third-party site or service. Your use of any third-party site or service is at your own risk and subject to the terms and policies of that third party.
8. Privacy
Your use of the Website is subject to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference and is available at www.lubinlawfirm.com/privacy-policy. By using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read and understand the Privacy Policy.
9. Disclaimers
THE WEBSITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE FIRM DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE WEBSITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. THE FIRM DOES NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, OR TIMELINESS OF ANY CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so the exclusions above may not apply to you to the extent prohibited by applicable law.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE FIRM SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, LOST GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE WEBSITE, EVEN IF THE FIRM HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IN NO EVENT SHALL THE FIRM'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), OR THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID THE FIRM (IF ANY) IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so the limitations above may not apply to you to the extent prohibited by applicable law. Nothing in these Terms limits the Firm's liability for matters that cannot be limited under applicable law, including fraud, intentional misconduct, or professional liability that the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar prohibit limiting by contract.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Firm and its attorneys, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to (a) your use of the Website, (b) your violation of these Terms, (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property or privacy right, or (d) any Submission you provide to the Firm. The Firm reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense of any matter subject to your indemnification obligation, in which case you will cooperate with the Firm's defense.
12. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Class-Action Waiver
12.1 Informal resolution.
Before initiating any formal proceeding, you and the Firm agree to attempt to resolve any dispute through informal good-faith negotiation. You may initiate informal negotiation by sending written notice describing the dispute to the Firm at the address in Section 14. The parties will negotiate in good faith for at least sixty (60) days before initiating arbitration or any other formal proceeding.
12.2 Binding arbitration.
Except as set forth in Section 12.5, any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and the Firm arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Privacy Policy, your use of the Website, the collection or processing of any information about you in connection with the Website, or any other interaction between you and the Firm in connection with the Website (collectively, "Disputes") shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time the arbitration is commenced. The arbitration shall be conducted in Broward County, Florida, by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, including any claim that all or part of it is void or voidable.
12.3 Class-action waiver.
**YOU AND THE FIRM AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION.** The arbitrator shall not have authority to consolidate the claims of more than one person or to preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If a court or arbitrator determines that this class-action waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, then that claim or remedy (and only that claim or remedy) shall be severed from arbitration and may proceed in court, and the remainder of this Section 12 shall remain in full force and effect.
12.4 Costs of arbitration.
Filing fees, arbitrator compensation, and administrative costs of the arbitration shall be allocated as provided by the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. Each party shall bear its own attorneys' fees and costs except as the arbitrator may award under applicable law.
12.5 Exceptions.
Notwithstanding Section 12.2, either party may (a) bring an individual action in small-claims court for any Dispute that qualifies under the court's jurisdictional limits, (b) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent or stop infringement of intellectual property rights or unauthorized access to the Website, and (c) seek enforcement of any arbitration award. Nothing in this Section limits any right that cannot lawfully be limited by contract under applicable consumer protection or other mandatory law, including any non-waivable right to file a complaint with The Florida Bar or any other regulatory body.
12.6 Thirty-day opt-out.
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement and class-action waiver by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the address in Section 14 within thirty (30) days after first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your full name, residential address, the email address you used to communicate with the Firm (if any), and a clear statement that you want to opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, neither you nor the Firm will be bound by Sections 12.2 through 12.5 of these Terms, but all other provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
13. Governing Law; Venue
These Terms and any Dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Website shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 12, any action or proceeding not subject to mandatory arbitration shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Broward County, Florida, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts.
