Terms of Service
Welcome to Lake Tahoe Wealth Management, Inc. Please read the following Terms of Service carefully before using our website, www.laletahoewealthmanagement.com (the “Website”). Your use of the Website automatically constitutes your agreement to be bound by all of the Terms of Service below as well as the LPL Online Privacy Policy published on this Website.
The Website is wholly owned and operated by Lake Tahoe Wealth Management, Inc.
APPLICATION OF LAW
These Terms of Service, including all Disclaimers, and your use of the Website, are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California, excluding that body of laws known as choice of law or conflict of laws. Subject to the provisions of this Section, all disputes, controversies, or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be resolved through mandatory binding arbitration, before
J.A.M.S./ENDISPUTE or its successor ("JAMS"), pursuant to the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1, et seq. (the "Act") and the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of J.A.M.S.'s Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect at the time of filing of the demand for arbitration (the "JAMS Rules"), subject to the provisions of this Section. The terms set forth in this Agreement will control in the event of any inconsistency between such terms and the JAMS Rules. The parties will cooperate with JAMS and with each other in promptly selecting a single arbitrator from JAMS's panel of neutrals. If the parties fail to so select an arbitrator within thirty (30) days following the date of either party's notice of demand to conduct arbitration, then JAMS will appoint an arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Rules. The award of the arbitrator will be in writing and will set forth findings of fact and conclusions of law. Judgment on the arbitrator's award will be final and binding upon the parties and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. If for any reason JAMS or its successor no longer is in business, then the arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator's fees will be shared equally by the parties, and each party will bear its own costs and attorneys' fees. All papers, documents, or evidence, whether written or oral, filed with or presented in connection with the arbitration proceeding will be deemed by the parties and by the arbitrator to be confidential information of both parties. The arbitrator chosen in accordance with these provisions will not have the power to alter, amend, or otherwise affect the terms of these arbitration provisions or the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from applying for and obtaining from a court a temporary restraining order and/or other injunctive relief. Any and all disputes against or otherwise involving Lake Tahoe Wealth Management, Inc. regarding the content presented on the Website must be resolved through arbitration as set forth in this section.
