Fees paid to the State or Government are non-refundable in all circumstances.

Cancellation requests must be submitted in writing via email or your account dashboard and are effective upon our written confirmation.

Unresolved disputes are decided by binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS (or the AAA, if unavailable), conducted in Flathead County, Montana, or remotely by agreement. Disputes are brought only in an individual capacity, not as a class, collective, or representative action. Either party may still bring an individual small claims action, seek injunctive relief to protect intellectual property, or pursue enforcement through government agencies.

Material changes will be posted on our website with a revised “Last Updated” date and, for active accounts, communicated via email or the account dashboard, taking effect no sooner than 14 days after notice (except where required sooner by law or the change favors Client). Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

Client may withdraw consent to electronic records by contacting orders@dirtlegal.com, though this may result in termination of Client's account, as electronic delivery is a required part of our service.

20. Miscellaneous

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between Client and Dirt Legal. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be severed or modified to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions remain in effect.
