Website Terms of Use

Last Modified: January 1, 2025

1. Introduction & Acceptance of the Terms of Use



These terms of use are entered into by and between you and Lawyers Assisting Wisconsin’s 501(c)(3), Inc. (“L.A.W. 501(c)(3)”, “we” or “us”). The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, these “Terms of Use”), govern your access to and use of www.law501c3.org and www.law501c3.com, including any content, functionality and services offered on or through the websites (the “Websites”), whether as a guest or a registered user.

INFORMATION PRESENTED ON THE WEBSITES IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THE INFORMATION PRESENTED ON THE WEBSITES DOES NOT CONSTITUTE LEGAL ADVICE AND DOES NOT CREATE AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT OR FIDUCIARY RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND L.A.W. 501(C)(3).

THIS DOCUMENT CONTAINS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS, AS WELL AS CONDITIONS, LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS THAT MIGHT APPLY TO YOU. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY. 

THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS. 

Please read the Terms of Use carefully before you start to use the Websites. By using the Websites or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to you when, for example, completing the volunteer attorney sign-up or client intake form, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use and our Privacy Notice , incorporated herein by reference. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Use or the Privacy Notice , you must not access or use the Websites.

The Websites are offered and available to users who are 18 years of age or older and meet either of the following eligibility requirements:

  1. Wisconsin Attorneys. Licensed attorneys admitted to the Wisconsin State Bar or registered with the Wisconsin Board of Bar Examiners as a registered in-house counsel in Wisconsin, who are seeking to provide volunteer legal services. Only attorneys in good standing with the Wisconsin State Bar are eligible to participate.
  2. Wisconsin Non-Profit Organizations: Principals or authorized agents of a registered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization located in Wisconsin that is a charitable, religious, civic, community or educational organization:
    • primarily serving the needs of persons of limited means; or
    • seeking to secure or protect civil rights, civil liberties or public rights; or
    • unable to pay legal fees without significantly impairing its resources, programming or otherwise being inappropriate.
  3. Financial Supporters of L.A.W. 501(c)(3). Financial supporters who make donations to support our mission.

In addition, participation is subject to the approval of L.A.W. 501(c)(3). L.A.W. 501(c)(3) reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to decline access to any non-profit organization if L.A.W. 501(c)(3) determines, for any reason, that the non-profit does not meet the criteria, mission or goals of the platform, or if its participation could be deemed inappropriate.

If you are accessing the Websites on behalf of a corporation, non-profit organization, government entity, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the legal right, power, and authority to enter into these Terms of Use on behalf of such entity.

By using the Websites, you represent and warrant that you meet all the eligibility requirements listed above and are of legal age to form a binding contract with L.A.W. 501(c)(3). If you do not meet all of these requirements, you are not permitted to use the Websites.

The Websites serve as a platform for L.A.W. 501(c)(3) to connect Wisconsin attorneys offering volunteer pro bono legal services with Wisconsin non-profit organizations seeking legal assistance. Unless L.A.W. 501(c)(3) has entered into an engagement letter with you for the provision of legal services, the use of the Websites does not create an attorney-client or fiduciary relationship between you and L.A.W. 501(c)(3).

An attorney-client relationship will only be established if you and L.A.W. 501(c)(3), or you and a volunteer attorney working directly with L.A.W. 501(c)(3), enter into a fully executed engagement letter. The relationship will be governed exclusively by the terms of the engagement letter, and the attorney-client relationship will exist solely between you and the specific party that signs the engagement letter.

2. Changes to the Terms of Use



We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all access to and use of the Websites thereafter. However, any changes to the dispute resolution provisions set forth in Governing Law and Jurisdiction will not apply to any disputes for which the parties have actual notice on or prior to the date the change is posted on the Websites.

Your continued use of the Websites following the posting of revised Terms of Use means that you accept and agree to the changes. You are expected to check this page each time you access the Websites so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you.

3. Access to the Websites



We reserve the right to withdraw or amend the Websites, and any service or material we provide on the Websites, in our sole discretion without notice.

By submitting a volunteer project or related information for posting, you acknowledge and agree that the information will be made publicly available on the Websites.

Confidentiality:

You are cautioned that adversaries, competitors, and unauthorized third parties may access the Websites and view volunteer project listings. Therefore, you must refrain from including any confidential information, client names, or other sensitive details in your submissions.

It is possible that the Websites and information could include typographical errors, inaccuracies or other errors, and that unauthorized additions, deletions and alterations could be made to the Websites by third parties.

18. Governing Law and Jurisdiction



These Terms of Use are entered into in the State of Wisconsin and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin, exclusive of its choice of law rules.

19. Arbitration



You and L.A.W. 501(c)(3) Are agreeing to give up any rights to litigate claims in a court or before a jury, or to participate in a class action or representative action with respect to a claim. Other rights that you would have if you went to court may also be unavailable or may be limited in arbitration.

Any claim, dispute or controversy (whether in contract, tort or otherwise, whether pre-existing, present or future, and including statutory, consumer protection, common law, intentional tort, injunctive and equitable claims) between you and us arising from or relating in any way to your USE OF services through the websites, will be resolved exclusively and finally by binding arbitration.

Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. The arbitration will be administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect (the “JAMS Rules”), except as modified by this Section 22. (The JAMS Rules are available at jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/.) You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms, the Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.

The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the agreement is void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

If you seek arbitration or elect to file a small claim court action, you must first send L.A.W. 501(c)(3), by certified mail, a written notice of your claim (a “Notice”) to the address set forth below. If L.A.W. 501(c)(3) initiates the arbitration, it will send such Notice to you at your address on file. A Notice, whether sent by you or L.A.W. 501(c)(3), must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) describe the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If you and L.A.W. 501(c)(3) do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or L.A.W. 501(c)(3) may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.

If we are unable to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you may commence arbitration with JAMS at https://www.jamsadr.com/submit. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after L.A.W. 501(c)(3) receives the notice at the address listed below that you have commenced arbitration, L.A.W. 501(c)(3) will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US $10,000, in which event you will be responsible for the filing fees.

If your claim is for US $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules. If your claim exceeds US $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. If the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of L.A.W. 501(c)(3)’s last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected (or if L.A.W. 501(c)(3) did not make a settlement offer before an arbitrator was selected), then L.A.W. 501(c)(3) will pay you the amount of the award or US $1,000, whichever is greater. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules.

You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, neither you nor L.A.W. 501(c)(3) will be entitled to join or consolidate claims by or against other customers in court or in arbitration or otherwise participate in any claim as a class representative, class member or in a private attorney general capacity. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.

This arbitration clause shall survive the termination of these Terms of Use. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then (a) the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, but the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use shall remain in full force and effect; and (b) exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claims will be as set forth above.

20. Limitation on Time to File Claims



ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE WEBSITES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

21. Waiver and Severability



No waiver by L.A.W. 501(c)(3) of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of L.A.W. 501(c)(3) to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

22. Entire Agreement



These Terms of Use and our Privacy Notice constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and L.A.W. 501(c)(3) with respect to the Websites and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the Websites. Should you decide to engage an attorney through L.A.W. 501(c)(3) and L.A.W. 501(c)(3) accepts you as a client, your relationship will be governed by a separate engagement letter between you and L.A.W. 501(c)(3).

23. Your Comments and Concerns
