20. BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Agreement to Arbitrate

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
Except as provided below, you and U.S. Injury Act agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Website, or your use of any service or feature of the Website — including disputes regarding the interpretation, formation, breach, performance, or termination of these Terms (collectively, “Disputes”) — shall be resolved exclusively through binding individual arbitration, rather than in a court of law.
The arbitration shall be conducted by a recognized arbitration provider, such as the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or JAMS, pursuant to the applicable rules in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated. The arbitration shall be conducted in New York, United States or at the election of the party seeking relief, by telephone or video conference. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law of the State within the United States Of America, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.).

Class Action Waiver

YOU AND U.S. INJURY ACT EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTES MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR MULTI-PLAINTIFF ACTION. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY CLASS ARBITRATION.
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, each party waives any right to a jury trial to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Exceptions to Arbitration

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court provided the claim qualifies. Either party may also seek emergency injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened misuse of intellectual property or other proprietary rights.

Opt-Out

You have the right to opt out of the arbitration agreement by sending written notice to U.S. Injury Act at privacy@usinjuryact.com within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. If you opt out, all Disputes shall be resolved exclusively in the courts specified in Section 19.

23. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator, that provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining Terms and shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be replaced with a valid provision that most closely reflects the intent of the original provision to the extent permitted by applicable law.

24. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices or policies published by U.S. Injury Act on this Website, constitute the entire agreement between you and U.S. Injury Act with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, warranties, and communications — whether written or oral — between you and U.S. Injury Act relating to the Website.
