11. DISPUTES
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to the Services or this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any party to the arbitration may at any time seek injunctions or other forms of equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction. We each agree that any and all disputes must be brought in the parties' individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. By entering into this Agreement and agreeing to arbitration, you agree that you and Default Mitigation Management LLC. are each waiving the right to file a lawsuit and the right to a trial by jury. In addition, you agree to waive the right to participate in a class action or litigate on a class-wide basis. You agree that you have expressly and knowingly waived these rights.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to Default Mitigation Management, 2517 Ritchie Avenue, Crescent Springs, Kentucky, 41017. Arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) before a single AAA arbitrator under the AAA's rules, which are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees and costs will be governed by the AAA's rules. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and not appealable, and judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This Section 11 shall survive termination.
12. GENERAL
This Agreement, including the Additional Terms below, is the entire agreement between you and DMM and replaces all prior understandings, communications and agreements, oral or written, regarding its subject matter. If any court of law, having the jurisdiction, rules that any part of this Agreement is invalid, that section will be removed without affecting the remainder of the Agreement. The remaining terms will be valid and enforceable. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement. You cannot assign or transfer ownership of this Agreement to anyone without written approval of DMM. However, DMM may assign or transfer it without your consent to (a) an affiliate, (b) a company through a sale of assets by DMM or (c) a successor by merger. Any assignment in violation of this Section shall be void.
The failure of DMM to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms of Service remain in full force and effect.
