15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

You agree to resolve disputes with the Company through binding arbitration, except as described in this section 15 (Arbitration Agreement”). The parties expressly waive the right to bring or participate in any kind of class, collective, or mass action, private attorney general action, or any other representative action. You may opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement under Section 15(k).some text

  1. Covered Disputes. You and Company agree that any dispute or claim between you and Company arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services (a “Dispute”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court.  A Dispute includes any claim or dispute relating to the Services, access and use thereof, your Account, or any aspects of your relationship or transactions with Company, as well as disputes that arose or involve facts occurring before the effectiveness of this Agreement as well as claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement.
  2. Exceptions to Arbitration. This Arbitration Agreement does not require arbitration of the following types of claims brought by either you or Company:
    1. small claims court actions, if the requirements of the court are met and the claims are only on an individual basis; and 
    2. claims pertaining to intellectual property rights, including trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights and patents.
  3. Informal Dispute Resolution First. Like you, we want to resolve Disputes without resorting to arbitration. If you have a Dispute with us, before initiating arbitration, you agree to mail an individualized request (“Pre-Arbitration Demand”) to [legal@omnipractice.co] so that we can work together to resolve the Dispute. This Section 15(c) is a condition precedent to commencing arbitration, and that the arbitrator will dismiss any arbitration filed without fully and completely complying with these informal dispute resolution procedures.some text
    1. A Pre-Arbitration Demand is only valid when it pertains to, and is on behalf of, a single individual. A Pre-Arbitration Demand brought on behalf of multiple individuals is invalid as to all.
    2. The Pre-Arbitration Demand must include: (i) your name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address associated with your account; (ii) the name, telephone number, mailing address and email address of your counsel, if any; (iii) a description of your Dispute; and (iv)your signature.
    3. Likewise, if Company has a Dispute with you, Company will send an email with its individualized Pre-Arbitration Demand, including the requirements listed above, to the email address associated with your Account.
    4. If the Dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) calendar days of when either you or Company submitted a Pre-Arbitration Demand, an arbitration can be brought.
    5. This Section 15(c) does not apply to claims brought under the exception to arbitration in Section 15(b).
  1. Arbitration Procedure. If, after completing the informal process in Section 15(c), either you or Company wishes to initiate arbitration, the initiating party must serve the other party with a demand for arbitration. Any demand for arbitration by you will be sent to the Company address in Section 15(c). Company will send any arbitration demand to the email address associated with your Company account or to your counsel, if any. You and Company agree that the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs this Arbitration Agreement. If the FAA cannot apply, then the state laws governing arbitration procedures where you reside apply.some text
    1. The arbitration will be administered by National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) under its operative Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures, available at https://www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms. This Agreement will govern to the extent it conflicts with the arbitration provider’s rules. If the applicable arbitration provider is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitration provider. If the parties cannot agree on an appropriate alternative arbitration provider, the parties will ask a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitrator pursuant to 9 U.S.C. § 5. To the extent there is a dispute over which arbitration provider has jurisdiction, a NAM arbitrator will be appointed to resolve that dispute.
    2. Arbitration hearings will take place through videoconferencing by default, unless you and Company agree upon another location in writing. A single arbitrator will be appointed. The arbitrator may award damages, declaratory or injunctive relief, and recoverable costs. Any arbitration award may be enforced (such as through a judgment) in any court with jurisdiction.  An arbitration award will have no preclusive effect in another arbitration or court proceeding involving Company and a different individual. The arbitrator will have the exclusive authority to resolve all threshold arbitrability issues, including whether this Agreement is applicable, unconscionable, or enforceable, as well as any defense to arbitration. However, a court has exclusive authority to rule on the Class Action Waiver in Section 15(f), including any claim that the section is unenforceable, illegal, void or voidable, or that it has been breached.
    3. If a request to proceed in small claims court (see Section 17(b)(i)), is made after an arbitration has been initiated, but before an arbitrator has been appointed, such arbitration will be administratively closed. Any controversy over the small claims court’s jurisdiction will be determined by the small claims court. If you or Company challenges the small claims court election in your Dispute, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the small claims court election is unenforceable, then such election will be severed from this Arbitration Agreement as to your Dispute.  However, such court determination will have no preclusive effect in another arbitration or court proceeding involving Company and a different individual.
  2. Jury Trial Waiver. You and Company hereby waive any constitutional and statutory rights to sue in court and have a trial in front of a judge or a jury.  You and Company are instead electing that all Disputes will be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 15(b) above. Court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.  Discovery may be limited in arbitration, and procedures are more streamlined than in court.
  3. Class Action Waiver. You and Company agree that, except as specified in Section 15(g) below, each of us may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not on a class, collective, representative, or mass action basis.some text
    1. The parties hereby waive all rights to have any Dispute be brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated on a class, collective, representative, or mass action basis.  Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief to the party’s individual claim.
    2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a court decides, in a final non appealable decision, that the limitations of this Section 15(f) are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and Company agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) will be severed from the arbitration and will be pursued in the courts specified in Section 16(a).
  4. Batch Proceedings. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and Company agree that if 100 or more similar arbitration demands (those asserting the same or substantially similar facts or claims, and seeking the same or substantially similar relief), presented by or with the assistance or coordination of the same law firm(s) or organization(s), within a one hundred and eighty (180) day period (“Mass Filing”), the parties agree:
    1. to administer the Mass Filing in batches of 100 demands per batch (or less, if fewer than 100 remain) (“Batch Proceedings”) with only one batch filed, processed, and adjudicated at a time;
    2. to designate one arbitrator for each batch;
    3. to accept applicable fees, including any related fee reduction determined by NAM in its discretion;
    4. that no other demands for arbitration that are part of the Mass Filing may be filed, processed, or adjudicated until the prior batch of 100 is filed, processed, and adjudicated;
    5. that fees associated with a demand for arbitration included in a Mass Filing, including fees owed by Company and the claimants, will only be due after your demand for arbitration is included in a set of batch proceedings and that batch is properly designated for filing, processing, and adjudication; and
    6. that the staged process of batched proceedings, with each set including 100 demands, will continue until each demand (including your demand) is adjudicated or otherwise resolved.
    7. Any statutes of limitation, including the requirement to file within one (1) year in Section 15(j) below, will remain tolled while any arbitration demands are held in abeyance. While the Batch Proceedings are adjudicated, no other demand for arbitration that is part of the Mass Filing may be processed, administrated, or adjudicated, and no filing or other administrative costs for such a demand for arbitration will be due from either party to the arbitration provider. If, contrary to this provision, a party prematurely files an , the parties agree that the arbitration provider must hold those demands in abeyance.
    8. All parties agree that arbitration demands are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. Any party may request that the arbitration provider appoint a sole standing administrative arbitrator (“Administrative Arbitrator”) to determine threshold questions such as (1) whether the Batch Proceeding process is applicable or enforceable, (2) whether particular demand(s) are part of a Mass Filing, and (3) whether demands within a Mass Filing were filed in accordance with this Agreement, including Section 15(c). To expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree that the Administrative Arbitrator may provide and use any procedures necessary to resolve the dispute promptly. Company will pay the Administrative Arbitrator’s costs.
    9. The parties will work in good faith with the arbitrator to complete each Batch Proceeding within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days of its initial pre-hearing conference. The parties agree that the Batch Proceeding process is designed to achieve an overall faster, more efficient, and less costly mechanism for resolving Mass Filings.
    10. This Batch Proceedings provision will in no way be interpreted as increasing the number of claims necessary to trigger the applicability of NAM’s Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures, or authorizing class arbitration of any kind. Unless Company otherwise consents in writing, Company does not agree or consent to class arbitration, private attorney general arbitration, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as set forth in thisSection15(g).
  5. Settlement.  At least ten (10) calendar days before the date set for the arbitration hearing, you or Company may serve a written offer of judgment upon the other party to allow judgment on specified terms.  If the offer is accepted, the offer with proof of acceptance will be submitted to the arbitration provider, who will enter judgment accordingly.  If the offer is not accepted before the arbitration hearing or within thirty (30) calendar days after it is made, whichever occurs first, it will be deemed withdrawn, and cannot serve as evidence in the arbitration.  If an offer made by one party is not accepted by the other party, and the other party fails to obtain a more favorable award, the other party will not recover their post-offer costs and will pay the offering party’s costs from the time of the offer.

The parties agree that any disputes with respect to settlement offer(s)or offer(s)of judgment in a Mass Filing are to be resolved by a single arbitrator to the extent such offers contain the same material terms.  For arbitrations involving represented parties, the represented parties’ attorneys agree to communicate individual offer(s)of judgment to each and every arbitration claimant or respondent to whom such offers are extended.

  1. Arbitration Costs.  Except as provided for in a Mass Filing under Section 15(g), your responsibility to pay any filing, administrative, and arbitrator costs will be solely as set forth in the applicable arbitration provider’s rules.
  2. One-Year Filing Deadline.  To the extent permitted by applicable Law, and notwithstanding any other statute of limitations, any claim or cause of action under this Agreement (with the exception of disputes under Section 15(b)(ii))must be filed within one (1)year after such claim or cause of action arose.  Otherwise, that claim or cause of action will be permanently barred.  The statute of limitations and any arbitration cost deadlines remain tolled during the required informal process under Section 15(c)above.
  3. Opt-Out.  You may reject this Arbitration Agreement and opt out of arbitration by sending an email to [legal@omnipractice.co] within thirty (30)calendar days of creating your Account.  Your opt-out notice must be sent from the email address associated with your Account. Your notice to opt-out must include your first and last name, address, the email address associated with your Company account, and a clear statement that you decline this Arbitration Agreement.  Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may enter into in the future with us.
  4. Severability.  Except as provided in Section 15(f)above, if any provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then that provision will be severed.  The remaining provisions will still apply and will be interpreted to achieve the closest possible intent to the original intent of this section, inclusive of the severed provision.
