15. Class Action And Jury Trial Waiver And Arbitration Agreement (V1 Eff 10/-21)

ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OF ASERVICE, THE PRIVACY POLICY, YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SITE, OR ANY RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR ARBITRATION OR AS A NAMED OR UNNAMED MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL LEGAL ACTION. YOUR ACCESS AND CONTINUED USE OF THE SITE AND/OR ANY OF THE SERVICES OFFERED ON OR THROUGH THE SITE SIGNIFIES YOUR EXPLICIT CONSENT TO THIS WAIVER AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.

Class Action Waiver. Subject to applicable law and the Jury Trial Waiver and Arbitration Clause below, you and we both waive any right to assert any claims against the other party as a representative or member in any class or representative action.

Jury Trial Waiver and Arbitration Clause (“Clause”)

What is arbitration? An alternative to court In arbitration, a third party (“Arbiter”) solves Disputes in a hearing (“hearing”). You, related third parties, and we, waive the right to go to court. Such “parties” waive jury trials.
Is it different from court and jury trials? You, Us, and Others This Agreement governs the parties, their heirs, successors, assigns, affiliates, and third parties including Providers related to any Dispute.
Which Disputes are covered? All Disputes In this Agreement, the word “Disputes” has the broadest possible meaning. This Agreement governs all “Disputes” involving the parties. This includes all claims even indirectly related to your access to and use of our website, any inquiry, application, offers and agreements with us. This includes claims related to information you previously gave us. It includes all past agreements. It includes claims related to marketing, privacy, consumer and customer information, data sharing, and communication including telephonic and electronic. It includes claims related to setting aside this Agreement. It includes claims about the Agreement's validity and scope. It includes claims about whether to arbitrate.
Are you waiving rights? Yes You waive your rights to:
  1. Have juries solve Disputes.
  2. Have courts, other than small-claims courts, solve Disputes.
  3. Serve as a private attorney general or in a representative capacity.
  4. Be in a class action.
Are you waiving class action rights? Yes COURTS AND ARBITERS WON'T ALLOW CLASS ACTIONS. You waive your rights to be in a class action, as a representative and a member. Only individual arbitration, or small-claims courts, will solve Disputes. You waive your right to have representative claims. Unless reversed on appeal, if a court invalidates this waiver, the Agreement will be void.
What law applies? The Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) This transaction involves interstate commerce, so the FAA governs. If a court finds the FAA doesn't apply, and the finding can't be appealed, then your state's law governs. The Arbiter must apply substantive law consistent with the FAA. The Arbiter must follow statutes of limitation and privilege claims.
Can the parties try to solve Disputes first? Yes We can try to solve Disputes if you email us at [email protected]. If this doesn't solve the Dispute, mail us notice, within 14 days of the Dispute date. In your notice, tell us the details and how you want to solve it. We will try to solve the Dispute. If we make a written offer (“Settlement Offer”), you can reject it and arbitrate. If we don't solve the Dispute, either party may start arbitration. To start arbitration, contact an Arbiter or arbitration group listed below. No party will disclose settlement proposals to the Arbiter during arbitration.
How should you contact us? By mail Each party has the right to arbitrate, or to go to small-claims court if the small-claims court has the power to hear the Dispute. Arbitration will solve all Disputes that the small-claims court does not have the power to hear. If there is an appeal from small-claims court, or if a Dispute changes so that the small-claims court loses the power to hear it, then the Dispute will only be heard by an Arbiter.
Do other options exist? Yes Both parties may seek remedies which don't claim money damages. This includes prejudgment seizure, injunctions, or equitable relief.
Will this Agreement continue to govern? Yes, unless otherwise agreed. The Agreement stays effective, unless the parties sign an agreement stating it doesn't. The Agreement governs your activity on, use, access to and use of Veterandebtassistance.org's website at www.Veterandebtassistance.org and any inquiry, application, and offer for loans and other financial products and services offered by, through or on behalf of Veterandebtassistance.org and its Providers and their respective websites. The Agreement remains effective, despite a transaction's termination, amendment, expiration, or performance including abandoned, unclaimed inquiries, applications, and offers.

Process

How does arbitration start? By mailing a notice Either party may mail the other a request to arbitrate, even if a lawsuit has been filed. The notice should describe the Dispute and relief sought. The receiving party must mail a response within 20 days. If you mail the demand, you may choose the arbitration group. Or, your demand may state that you want the parties to choose a local Arbiter. If related third parties or we mail the demand, you must respond in 20 days. Your response must choose an arbitration group or propose a local Arbiter. If it doesn't, we may choose the group.
Who arbitrates? AAA, JAMS, or an agreed Arbiter You may select:
  1. American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (1-800-778-7879) http://www.adr.org or
  2. JAMS (1-800-352-5267) http://www.jamsadr.com.
The parties may also agree in writing to a local attorney, retired judge, or Arbiter in good standing with an arbitration group. The Arbiter must arbitrate under AAA or JAMS consumer rules. You may get a copy of these rules from such group. Any rules that conflict with any of our agreements with you, don't apply. If these options aren't available, and the parties can't agree on another, a court may choose the Arbiter. Such Arbiter must enforce your agreements with us, as they are written.
Will the hearing be held nearby? Yes The Arbiter will order the hearing within 30 miles of your home or where the transaction occurred.
What about appeals? Appeals are limited The Arbiter's decision will be final. A party may file the Arbiter's award with the proper court. Arbitration will solve appeals of a small-claims court judgment. A party may appeal under the FAA. If the amount in controversy exceeds $10,000.00, a party may appeal the Arbiter's finding. Such appeal will be to a three Arbiter panel from the same arbitration group. The appeal will be de novo and solved by majority vote. The appealing party bears appeal costs, despite the outcome.

Arbritration Fees and Awards

Will we advance Arbitration Fees? Yes, but you pay your costs. We will advance your “Arbitration Fees” if you ask us to. This includes filing, administrative, hearing, and Arbiter's fees. You pay your attorney fees and other expenses.
Are damages and attorney fees possible? Yes, if allowed by law. The Arbiter may award the same damages as a court. Arbiters may award reasonable attorney fees, and expenses, if allowed by law.
Will you pay Arbitration Fees if you win? No If the Arbiter awards you funds, you don't reimburse us the Arbitration Fees.
Will you ever pay Arbitration Fees? Yes If the Arbiter doesn't award you funds, then you must repay the Arbitration Fees. If you must pay Arbitration Fees, the amount won't exceed state court costs.
What happens if you win? You could get more than the Arbiter Awarded. If an Arbiter's award to you exceeds our last Settlement Offer, we will pay 3 amounts. We will pay the award, plus 10% of such amount (“bonus payment”). We will pay your attorney the attorney fees conferred, plus 10% of such amount (“attorney premium”). If the Arbiter orders, we will pay reasonable expert witness costs and other costs you incurred (“cost premium”). If we never made a Settlement Offer, we will pay the bonus payment, attorney premium, and any cost premium. If a law allows you more, this Agreement won't prevent such award. We won't seek attorney fees and expenses.
Can an award be explained? Yes A party may request details from the Arbiter, within 14 days of the ruling. Upon such request, the Arbiter will explain the ruling in writing.
