Gray Jay Endeavors provides online legal information to give visitors a general understanding of the law and to provides document solutions to individuals who choose to prepare their own legal documents. Gray Jay Endeavors hosts its document downloads as a front-end service and subscription service for customers if they wish to create their own documents for use alone or with other professionals. The Site includes general information on commonly encountered legal issues. Gray Jay Endeavors Services may also include a review of your answers for completeness, spelling, and for internal consistency of names, addresses and the like. At no time do we review your answers for legal sufficiency, draw legal conclusions, provide legal advice, opinions or recommendations about your legal rights, remedies, defenses, options, selection of forms, or strategies, or apply the law to the facts of your particular situation. Gray Jay Endeavors is not a law firm and may not perform services performed by an attorney. Gray Jay Endeavors, its Services, and its forms or templates are not a substitute for the advice or services of an attorney.

Gray Jay Endeavors strives to keep its legal documents accurate, current and up-to-date. However, because the law changes rapidly, Gray Jay Endeavors cannot guarantee that all of the information on the Site or Applications is completely current. The law is different from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and may be subject to interpretation by different courts. The law is a personal matter, and no general information or legal tool like the kind Gray Jay Endeavors provides can fit every circumstance. Furthermore, the legal information contained on the Site and Applications is not legal advice and is not guaranteed to be correct, complete or up-to-date. Therefore, if you need legal advice for your specific problem, or if your specific problem is too complex to be addressed by our tools, you should consult a licensed attorney in your area.

From time to time, Gray Jay Endeavors may perform certain attorney access services and introduce our visitors to attorneys. At no time is an attorney-client relationship fostered or created with Gray Jay Endeavors through the performance of any such services.

This Site and Applications are not intended to create any attorney-client relationship, and your use of Gray Jay Endeavors does not and will not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Gray Jay Endeavors. Instead, you are and will be representing yourself in any legal matter you undertake through Gray Jay Endeavors’ services.

6. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY MEDIATION OR ARBITRATION

Please read this carefully. It affects your rights.

Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by calling our office at (508) 293-4011. In the unlikely event that the Gray Jay Endeavors Customer Service is unable to resolve your complaint to your satisfaction (or if Gray Jay Endeavors has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally), we each agree to resolve those disputes through mediation. If you notify Gray Jay Endeavors of a dispute arising under this agreement, you agree to meet in person and confer within thirty (30) days of that written notice to attempt to resolve the dispute at the offices of Gray Jay Endeavors or other agreed upon location. The purpose of this meeting and conference will be to negotiate a solution. If any dispute is not resolved through negotiation, you agree to choose a neutral mediator whose role will be to facilitate further negotiations. If you and Gray Jay Endeavors cannot agree on a neutral mediator, then you will request that the Massachusetts Bar Association or the American Arbitration Association, or similar organization, select a mediator. The first mediation session shall occur within thirty (30) days, or as soon as practically possible, after the mediator is selected. You and Gray Jay Endeavors shall share the costs of the mediation, provided that the payment of costs and any attorney’s fees may be mediated as well.

This mediation shall be in lieu of filing in a court of general jurisdiction and filing may not take place until after a good faith attempt at mediation has occurred. If a court finds that this mediation clause may not preclude filing, then after filing, mediation shall be ordered by the court as a necessary part of the settlement process. Mediation is less formal than a lawsuit in court. If mediation is unsuccessful you and Gray Jay Endeavors may agree to arbitration. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than a court does, and is subject to very limited review by courts.

A party who intends to seek mediation or arbitration must first send, by U.S. certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) to the other party. A Notice to Gray Jay Endeavors should be addressed to: Notice of Dispute, Gray Jay Endeavors, LLC, 9 Main Street, Southborough, MA 01772 (the “Notice Address”). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If Gray Jay Endeavors and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Gray Jay Endeavors may commence a mediation or an arbitration proceeding. During a mediation or arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Gray Jay Endeavors or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Gray Jay Endeavors is entitled.

Notwithstanding any provision in the applicable Terms to the contrary, we agree that if we make any future change to this mediation and arbitration provision (other than a change to any notice address, website link or telephone number provided herein), that change will not apply to any dispute of which we had written notice on the effective date of the change. Moreover, if we seek to terminate this provision, any such termination will not be effective until at least thirty (30) days after written notice of such termination is provided to you and shall not be effective as to disputes which arose prior to the date of termination.

7. Additional Terms. Some Gray Jay Endeavors Services may be subject to additional posted guidelines, rules or terms of service (“Additional Terms”) and your use of such Services will be conditioned on your agreement to the Additional Terms. If there is any conflict between these Terms of Use and the Additional Terms, the Additional Terms will control for that Service, unless the Additional Terms expressly state that these Terms of Use will control.

8. Reviews, Comments, Communications, and Other Content. At various locations on the Site or through Applications, Gray Jay Endeavors may permit visitors to post ratings, reviews, comments, questions, answers, and other content (the “User Content”).
