Disputes
If you have a dispute with BJKPublishing.com, and you are unable to resolve the dispute informally, you and BJKPublishing.com agree that upon demand by either you or BJKPublishing.com, the dispute will be resolved through binding arbitration.
As the sole exception to arbitration, you and BJKPublishing.com each retain the right to pursue in small claims court any dispute that is within that court’s jurisdiction. A “dispute” is any unresolved disagreement between you and BJKPublishing.com, regardless of when the claim arose, and includes claims based on contracts, torts, statutes, regulations, common law, and equitable claims. All statutes of limitation applicable to any dispute shall apply in any arbitration between you and BJKPublishing.com.
 

You and BJKPublishing.com agree that you are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a court. You and BJKPublishing.com agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and that neither you nor BJKPublishing.com shall be entitled to join or consolidate claims by or against others in any arbitration, or to include in any arbitration any dispute as a representative or member of a class, or on behalf of the general public, or as a private attorney general. If this limitation is found to be unenforceable, it shall not be severable, and this entire arbitration provision shall be unenforceable.

Each arbitration, including the selection of the arbitrator, will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) according to its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedure for Consumer-Related Disputes (together, the “AAA Rules”). The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7979. In the event of any inconsistency between the AAA Rules and this arbitration provision, this arbitration provision shall be controlling. Either party may demand arbitration of a dispute at any time, regardless of whether a lawsuit or other proceeding has previously been commenced. Either party may demand arbitration by completing the form for Consumer-Related Disputes provided for that purpose, and following the instructions on the form. The form is available on the AAA’s website, www.adr.org, or by calling AAA Case Filing Services at 1-877-495-4185.
