These materials are offered for information purposes only. They are generally limited only to California law or to the state of the law generally as it exists throughout the United States of America. Do not act or rely upon any of the resources and information available from us without seeking professional legal advice specific to your situation and state.

The transmission of information from us, including the mere reply to an e-mail inquiry is NOT intended to create, nor does it create, an attorney-client relationship between us and you.

EARNINGS DISCLAIMER

We make every effort to ensure that we accurately represent any additional or third-party products and services and their potential for income, if any. Earning and Income statements made by Ronald Ballard, Ballard Law and its customers are estimates of what we think you can possibly earn. There is no guarantee that you will make these levels of income and you accept the risk that the earnings and income statements differ by individual.

As with any business, your results may vary, and will be based on your individual capacity, business experience, expertise, and level of desire. You should not anticipate or plan on creating any income as a result of subscribing to Ballard Law or following any information provided.

There are no guarantees concerning the level of success you may experience.

Any testimonials and examples used are exceptional results, which do not apply to the average purchaser, and are not intended to represent or guarantee that anyone will achieve the same or similar results. Each individual’s success depends on his or her background, dedication, desire, motivation and application of effective business practices including hard work and long hours. We are not promoting any kind of “push button” or “instant” success that does not require strong and effective working habits.

Your level of success in attaining the results discussed in our materials depends on the time you devote to the program, ideas and techniques mentioned, your finances, knowledge, and various skills. Since these factors differ according to individuals, we cannot guarantee your success or income level. Nor are we responsible for any of your actions.

There is no assurance that examples of past earnings can be duplicated in the future. We cannot and do not guarantee your future results and/or success. There are many unknown risks in business, real estate, and the economy that we cannot foresee which can reduce results. Laws regarding real estate and foreclosure vary from state to state and we cannot certify that you will be successful using our product in California or your state.

We are not responsible for your actions or those of your investors, real estate licensees (agents and brokers), or potential clients. The use of our information, products and services should be based on your own due diligence and you agree that our company is not liable for any success or failure of your business that is directly or indirectly related to the purchase and use of our information, products and services.

14. Copyright Infringement

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by Ballard Law, or one of its affiliates infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked.

15. Miscellaneous

The Service is directed solely to adult individuals residing in the United States. Specific content is directed solely to a specific State only if stated as such. We make no representation that materials provided through the Service are appropriate or available for use in other locations. Those who choose to access the Service from other locations do so on their own initiative and at their own risk, and are responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent applicable. We reserve the right to limit the availability of the Service to any person, geographic area, or jurisdiction we so desire, at any time and in our sole discretion, and to limit the quantities of any such service or product that we provide.

NO ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP

The Ballard Law Corporation web site is an educational, publishing and training system. Use of this web site does not establish an attorney-client relationship and the information provided is not personal legal advice. A subscriber can establish an attorney-client relationship only by agreeing to an attorney-client agreement and paying the applicable legal fees. Legal Services are provided via direct communication with clients, not via public web site information.

The TOU, together with all other policies referred to herein, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Ballard Law relating to your use of the Service and supersedes and any all prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreements on that subject between us. The TOU and the relationship between you and Ballard Law are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its principles of conflict of laws. You and Ballard Law agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of private arbitration services located within Riverside County, California, and waive any jurisdictional, venue, or inconvenient forum objections to such courts. All disputes within the jurisdictional amount of Small Claims Court shall be heard in Small Claims Court. All other claims shall be the subject of private arbitration under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association, JAMS, or similar, well-recognized private arbitration service selected by the person first filing for dispute resolution. The use of arbitration is jurisdictional, which means State and Federal courts do not have jurisdiction by mutual agreement of the parties.

If any provision of the TOU is found to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from the TOU and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.

Any heading, caption or section title contained in the TOU is inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way defines or explains any section or provision hereof. We reserve the right to require you to sign a non-electronic version of the TOU.
