SECTION 13 - GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE
Our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving any dispute quickly. Therefore, except where and to the extent prohibited by law, for any claim related to these Terms of Service or our Site where the total amount sought (i) is equal to or more than $10,000 USD, you may, or (ii) is less than $10,000 USD, you must, initiate dispute proceedings by mailing a written notice to SBRA at the address listed below, explaining the reasons for your claim and providing your contact information. SBRA may offer to settle the claim, provided however that if the dispute is not resolved within 30 days from the date of SBRA's offer to settle or SBRA's receipt of your claim notice (whichever is later), you may invoke binding arbitration by mailing a separate demand for arbitration to SBRA at the address listed below. A party electing arbitration shall initiate it through an established alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”) provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted, at the option of the party seeking relief, in person, by telephone, online, or based solely on written submissions; (b) any in person arbitration will take place in the county in which the city or town you have entered as your residence sits (and if neither is applicable, then the arbitration shall take place in San Francisco County, California); (c) the ADR provider may award any form of individual relief; (d) SBRA will pay all arbitration costs for non-frivolous claims; (e) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction; (f) SBRA may not seek reimbursement of its attorney's fees in connection with such arbitration unless your claim is frivolous; (h) claims must be brought in the parties' individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. You hereby agree that for any dispute or claim, you waive any right to a trial (by judge or jury), you waive any right to participate as a member of a class in a class action or similar proceeding, and you will abide by the dispute resolution mechanism in this Section (The rights to attorneys’ fees and expenses discussed above supplement any right to attorneys’ fees and expenses you may have under applicable law, but you may not recover duplicative awards of attorneys’ fees or costs). The formation, construction and interpretation of these Terms of Service shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the State of California, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of laws.
