Terms of Use
1. Introduction and Overview
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) set forth a legally binding agreement between you and Marble PC (“Marble”, “we”, “our”, or “us”), and govern your use of any online service location that posts a link to these Terms, and all features, content, and other services that we own, control and make available through such online service location (collectively, the “Service”).
In some instances, both these Terms and separate terms elsewhere on the Service will apply to your use of the Service (“Additional Terms”). To the extent there is a conflict between these Terms and any applicable Additional Terms, the Additional Terms will control unless they expressly state otherwise. In other instances, you may enter into an attorney-client relationship by signing an engagement letter (referred to as a “Marble Agreement '') with Marble and where applicable, the lawyer who is assigned to provide you the legal assistance that you requested. To the extent there is a conflict between these Terms and any applicable Marble Agreement, the Marble Agreement will control unless the Marble Agreement expressly states otherwise.
By using the Service, you agree to these Terms, and consent to our collection, use and disclosure practices, and other activities as described in our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree and consent, discontinue use of the Service.
2. Legal Services
A. Provision of Legal Services for Your Matter
In the event that Marble agrees to represent you, the legal services for your matter may be provided by another attorney or law firm as co-counsel with Marble (“Co-Counsel”). Co-Counsel are not members, partners, associates or employees of Marble.
B. No Attorney-Client Relationship Unless Marble Agreement is Fully Executed.
Submitting information via any of the forms on the Service does not create an attorney-client relationship. An attorney-client relationship may be formed only after Marble and the Co-Counsel to which your matter has been referred (where applicable) have both confirmed that no conflict of interest exists and all parties (including you, Marble, and where applicable, Co-Counsel) have executed a Marble Agreement. In the event that we are unable to take on the representation, any fee you pay in advance will be refunded to you.
C. Confidentiality of the Information You Submit Through The Service
Although we will endeavor to keep your information confidential, unless and until an attorney-client relationship is formed, the information you provide may not be protected by the attorney-client privilege. Therefore, you should be careful not to submit any information on the Service that you wish to keep confidential.
D. No Legal Advice or Representation
The Service is intended for general informational purposes only. It does not constitute legal advice and is no substitute for consulting a licensed attorney. Only an attorney can provide you legal advice, and only after considering your specific facts and circumstances. You should not act on any information on the Service without first seeking the advice of any attorney.
E. Jurisdiction
Through Marble, family-lawyer.co offers legal services in Texas and Florida. Marble does not seek to represent clients in jurisdictions where doing so would be unauthorized. The Service is not intended as advertising or solicitation in any jurisdiction where the Service would be so characterized and fails to comply with all applicable laws and ethical rules of that jurisdiction.
F. Attorney Advertising
The Service constitutes attorney advertising. The attorney responsible for this advertisement is Jeffrey A. Pollak and may be contacted at 9920 Pacific Heights Blvd., Ste. 150 San Diego, CA 92121 and (800) 297-1008.
G. Selection of Counsel
Determining whether you need legal services, which ones, and which lawyer (if any) to hire are important decisions that should not be based solely upon advertisements or a lawyer’s or law firm’s self-proclaimed expertise. If you are considering hiring a lawyer, please independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability.
No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.
Before you decide to hire any attorneys, you may ask them to send you written information about their qualifications and experience. Additional information may also be obtained by contacting the bar association in the state in which the attorney is licensed.
H. Protecting Your Rights
We want you to protect your legal rights. In any legal matter, there are important deadlines, obligations and rights that you need to know about to ensure that your legal rights are protected. Until and unless you enter into a signed Marble Agreement, you, not we, are fully responsible for attending to any deadlines, obligations or rights associated with your legal matter.
I. No Duty to Investigate
We don’t have the time or duty to investigate or follow up on every submission. It is in our sole discretion whether, when and how to discuss your legal matter with you. For example, submissions lacking complete and accurate information about you or your legal matter may be ignored. You will not necessarily be contacted in such (or any) circumstances. We will not necessarily preserve the information you submit.
J. No Guarantee of Results
The outcome of each legal case depends upon many factors, including the unique facts of the case, and no attorney can guarantee a positive result in any particular case. Any testimonial, endorsement or description of past success (even in a similar case) does not constitute a guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome of your legal matter. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
K. Money Back Guarantee
Although we cannot guarantee any particular result in your legal matter, we offer a full refund of your legal fee if you are not satisfied with our services and if you request such refund in writing within fourteen days after your Marble Agreement is fully executed by you, Marble, and if applicable, Co-Counsel . After fourteen days, this money back guarantee will expire. This guarantee is not intended to limit any liability for legal malpractice, which may exist under the law.
L. Consent to be Contacted
By submitting information to the Service, you consent to be contacted by phone, text, or email by Marble or its agents.
M. Consent to Sharing of Information with LSPs and Themis-Tech Inc
You consent for Marble to share your information with any Co-Counsel that Marble determines, in its discretion, may be suitable for your legal matter. You also consent for Marble to share your information with Themis-Tech Inc. (“Themis-Tech”), which provides technological, case management, document management, accounting, marketing, financing and other services (the “Non-Legal Services”) in connection with or in support of Marble’s legal services. Themis-Tech is not a law firm and does not offer legal services or legal advice.

11. Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes and Choice of Law
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
A. We Both Agree to Arbitrate
You and Marble agree to resolve any claims relating to these Terms through final and binding arbitration, except to the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate Marble's intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights). Under such circumstances Marble may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Service, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described herein.
B. What is Arbitration
Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court and seeks to resolve disputes more quickly. Instead of a judge or a jury, the case will be decided by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same damages and relief that a court can. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced.
C. Arbitration Procedures
The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute resolution provision. Arbitration shall be initiated through JAMS. Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be referred to and finally determined by arbitration in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures in front of one arbitrator. If there is a conflict between JAMS Rules and the rules set forth in these Terms, the rules set forth in these Terms will govern. The JAMS Rules and instructions for how to initiate an arbitration are available from JAMS at http://www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267. To initiate arbitration, you or Marble Law must do the following things:
- Write a demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the Claim and the amount of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a copy of a demand for Arbitration at www.jamsadr.com.
- Send three copies of the demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee to: JAMS to your local JAMS office or to JAMS, Two Embarcadero Center, Suite 1500, San Francisco, CA 94111.
- Send one copy of the demand for Arbitration to the other party.
Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules. If travelling to California is a burden, you may participate in the arbitration by phone or via document submission to the fullest extent allowable by the arbitrator. Each party will bear their own costs of arbitration unless the arbitrator directs that bearing such costs would be an undue burden and in that case, we will pay for your portion of the arbitration administrative costs (but not your attorneys’ fees). Arbitration under this agreement shall be held in the United States in San Diego, California under California law without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The arbitration may award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive relief). Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
D. Authority of Arbitrator
The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Marble Law, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the Arbitration Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Marble Law.
E. No Class Actions
You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not allowed.
F. Waiver of Jury Trial
THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and Marble Law in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND MARBLE LAW WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT YOU MAY CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY IN DECIDING TO ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE.
G. Choice of Law/Forum Selection
In any circumstances where the Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes permits the parties to litigate in court, these Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflict of law rules. You further expressly consent and agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of a court of competent jurisdiction located in San Diego, CA.
12. Disclaimer of Representations and Warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED TO YOU ON AN "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE," AND "WITH ALL FAULTS" BASIS. NEITHER MARBLE LAW NOR ANY PERSON ASSOCIATED WITH MARBLE LAW (COLLECTIVELY, THE "MARBLE LAW PARTIES") MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR ENDORSEMENTS OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER AS TO THE CONTENT OR OTHER SERVICES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, OR ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, QUIET ENJOYMENT AND FREEDOM FROM COMPUTER VIRUS. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOUR ACTIVITIES ARE LAWFUL IN EVERY JURISDICTION WHERE YOU ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THESE DISCLAIMERS DO NOT EXCLUDE ANY PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS, STATUTORY CONSUMER RIGHTS, DAMAGES ASSOCIATED WITH PERSONAL INJURY OR RESULTING FROM MARBLE LAW INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, RECKLESSNESS, FRAUD, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE.
13. Limitations of Our Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE MARBLE LAW PARTIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY LOSS, DAMAGE OR INJURY OF ANY KIND INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE LOSSES OR DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR SYSTEM FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION OR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, BUSINESS OR GOOD-WILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH (A) THE SERVICE, (B) THESE TERMS OR (C) YOUR MISUSE OF THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICE. THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER THE ASSERTED LIABILITY OR DAMAGES ARE BASED ON CONTRACT, INDEMNIFICATION, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY.
NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THESE DISCLAIMERS HEREIN DO NOT EXCLUDE ANY PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS, STATUTORY CONSUMER RIGHTS, DAMAGES ASSOCIATED WITH PERSONAL INJURY OR RESULTING FROM MARBLE LAW INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, RECKLESSNESS, FRAUD, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE.
14. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Marble Law Parties from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of or in connection with any of the following: (i) your breach or alleged breach of these Terms; (ii) your Submissions; (iii) your misuse of the Service; (iv) your violation of any laws, rules, regulations, codes, statutes, ordinances or orders of any governmental or quasi-governmental authorities; (v) your violation of the rights of any third party, including any intellectual property right, publicity, confidentiality, property or privacy right; (vi) your use of a Third Party Service; or (vii) any misrepresentation made by you. Marble Law reserves the right to assume, at your expense, the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you. You agree to cooperate with Marble Law’s defense of any claim. You will not in any event settle any claim without the prior written consent of Marble Law.
This provision does not require you to indemnify us for any unconscionable commercial practice by us or for our fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Service.
15. Waiver of Injunctive or other Equitable Relief
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN AN INJUNCTION OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF OF ANY KIND, SUCH AS ANY COURT OR OTHER ACTION THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH OR PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OR EXPLOITATION OF ANY WEBSITE, APPLICATION, CONTENT, SUBMISSIONS, PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNED, LICENSED, USED OR CONTROLLED BY MARBLE LAW OR A LICENSOR OF MARBLE LAW.
16. Updates to Terms
We reserve the right, at any time in our sole discretion, to modify or replace any part of these Terms and any applicable Additional Terms, without prior notice. You agree that we may notify you of any updated Terms and any applicable Additional Terms by posting them on the Service so that they are accessible via a link from the home page, and/or to send you an email to the last email address you provided to us. All such changes are effective immediately when we post them, or such later date as may be specified in the notice of updated Terms and any applicable Additional Terms. If you object to any such changes, your sole recourse is to cease using the Service.

You hereby waive any applicable statutory and common law that may permit a contract to be construed against its drafter. The summaries of provisions and section headings are provided for convenience only and shall not limit the full Terms. Marble may assign its rights and obligations under these Terms and any applicable Additional Terms, in whole or in part, to any party at any time without any notice.
