As for any BBB (Better Business Bureau) related graphics/info on our site, the graphics/info simply represent(s) that at least one business/professional associated with our website, has indeed held an A+ rating at BBB, and NOT needing nor desiring a 'BBB Accreditation' or, 'BBB Accredited Business status', as that investigator has produced very high client satisfaction year after year without needing any memberships or purchases with BBB. In fact, the investigator has documented accounts where members/associates of BBB would pretend to be prospective customers who would call and ask if we were 'BBB Accredited', just to secretly solicit the company to pay for an Accredited status with BBB. Terms of Service for Investigative Case Assessment: Service Agreement & TERMS OF SERVICE (TOS) 1. This is the purchase of an Investigative Case Assessment ONLY, and I understand it will be performed by an investigator - NOT the hiring of a law firm. I the Buyer agree to read Seller's Refund Policy in Paragraphs (6) & (7) TWICE before submitting this form indicating that I fully understand, accept, and agree to those terms. I the Buyer understand I can email seller at their 'Support' email address located at their website, for a full refund now instead of submitting this form as my full acceptance and signature of all twenty-six (26) paragraphs and their sub-paragraphs (which Terms of Service (TOS) are also the exact same as displayed on SelIer's website that I the Buyer have also read, understood, and have accepted before making this payment, and I have read, understood, and accepted them AGAIN herein this Service Agreement. If I the Buyer submit this form, I then fully agree to all terms of service. I the Buyer agree to read Seller's Paypal Claims And Bank Card Charge-Backs policy in Paragraph (10) and of its Subparagraphs TWICE before submitting this form indicating that I fully understand, accept, and agree to those terms. BY SUBMITTING THIS FORM, I THE BUYER FULLY UNDERSTAND, ACCEPT, AND AGREE TO ALL TWENTY-SIX (26) PARAGRAPHS HEREIN, as; 2. By filling out this post purchase form by answering the questions and fully agreeing upon the Terms of Service (TOS) as outlined herein this form by checking the boxes and typing my name as my signature. 3. Then the investigator will begin reviewing and assessing the information submitted in this form that I (Buyer) inform about my case, and will then reasonably attempt to contact me the Buyer normally by phone, within three (3) business days to continue the case assessment by; 4. Discussing the case with the Buyer to obtain a clear understanding of the issues and problems the Buyer is needing help with, for Seller to CONSIDER at the Seller's full discretion and choice, to give him or her a quote based on this understanding, for hiring Seller (the private investigative group) for legal investigative services for investigating those issues and/or problems that the Buyer (prospective client) is requesting help with on their pre-existing court case. Buyer understands and agrees that THE ONLY OBLIGATION OF PERFORMANCE THAT SELLER HAS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS TO PERFORM A BRIEF ASSESSMENT OF BUYER'S PRE-EXISTING COURT CASE for possibly offering a quote to Buyer, for hiring Seller for legal investigative services on that case, and that AGAIN, any quotes later offered AFTER THE ASSESSMENT, for hiring Seller/Investigative Firm, AGAIN, ARE DONE AT SELLER/INVESTIGATIVE FIRM'S FULL DISCRETION AND CHOICE AND SELLER IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO OFFER THE BUYER ANY QUOTE FOR HIRING THE INVESTIGATIVE FIRM TO WORK ON BUYER'S EXISTING CASE. 5. During the Case Assessment, the phone call discussion between Buyer and Seller will have no set determined amount of time (i. e. some conversations may last longer than others as appropriate where it may be anywhere from around fifteen (15) to thirty (30) minutes in duration and again, the duration of that call/conversation shall be at the Seller's (the private investigative group's) full discretion and choice. 6. REFUND POLICY - After the phone call, the Seller/Investigator will then ask the Buyer if he or she is fully satisfied with the Investigative Case Assessment and if so, to ALSO confirm in writing VIA Seller's Web-Form (that Seller will email the Web-Link of the Web-Form, to the Buyer after the phone call case discussion), which lets the Buyer acknowledge IN WRITING that Buyer is FULLY SATISFIED with the performance of the Investigative Case Assessment Service performed, and to inform Seller that Buyer still wishes to receive a quote based on the assessment for hiring Seller/Investigator to legally work on Buyer's existing case. IF BUYER IS NOT FULLY SATISFIED WITH THE INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT SERVICE AS PERFORMED, HE/SHE MAY INFORM THE SELLER/INVESTIGATOR OF THAT TO RECEIVE A FULL REFUND OF HIS/HER PAYMENT HOWEVER, ONCE THE BUYER INDICATES IN WRITING AFTER THE PHONE CALL CASE ASSESSMENT DISCUSSION HAS BEEN COMPLETED, THAT BUYER IS FULLY SATISFIED WITH IT, THEN THERE CANNOT BE ANY SUBSEQUENT (LATER) REQUEST FOR A REFUND SINCE BUYER HAS ALREADY ACKNOWLEDGED BEING FULLY SATISFIED WITH IT AFTER IT WAS COMPLETED. IF BUYER DOES NOT FULLY AGREE WITH THIS OR ANY OTHER PART OF THIS AGREEMENT ALSO KNOWN AS TERMS OF SERVICE, HE/SHE IS NOT OBLIGATED TO SIGN AND SUBMIT THIS FORM WHEREAS INSTEAD, BUYER MAY CONTACT SELLER AT THE 'SUPPORT' EMAIL ADDRESS LISTED ON SELLER'S WEBSITE, TO STATE THAT HE/SHE DOES NOT WANT TO AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND WOULD RATHER RECEIVE A FULL REFUND INSTEAD OF HAVING THE SERVICE PERFORMED. AGAIN, BUYER IS NOT OBLIGATED TO SUBMIT THIS FORM AND CAN INSTEAD, EMAIL SELLER TO REQUEST A FULL REFUND IF HE/SHE DOES NOT FULLY AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF SERVICE AS STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT FOR SERVICES. 7. TO REITERATE THE ABOVE TERMS OF REFUND POLICY, If Buyer is not fully satisfied with the Investigative Case Assessment, he/she may contact the Seller (the investigative group VIA 'Support' email displayed at their website) to request a refund. ONCE THE BUYER EXPRESSES BEING FULLY SATISFIED, ANY SUBSEQUENT EXPRESSED OR WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS WHATSOEVER OF BUYER NOT BEING FULLY SATISFIED SHALL THEN BE DEEMED AND CONSTRUED AS VOID, FRIVOLOUS, AN ATTEMPT TO DEFRAUD SELLER, AND THUS AN INVALID REQUEST. 8. THE BUYER UNDERSTANDS AND ACCEPTS THAT HE OR SHE MUST BE FULLY SATISFIED WITH THE INVESTIGATOR'S COMPLETION OF THAT INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT BEFORE THE SELLER (INVESTIGATOR) IS WILLING TO OFFER A QUOTE FOR THAT BUYER TO HIRE THE INVESTIGATOR. AGAIN, THE BUYER WILL NOT RECEIVE A QUOTE FOR HIRING, UNLESS THEY ARE FIRST AND FOREMOST FULLY SATISFIED WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF THE INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT. The reason why our prospective client must first be fully satisfied of that assessment before we are willing to offer a quote for our services, is for two reasons: A. If the Buyer is not fully satisfied with our Investigative Case Assessment, which is designed mainly to obtain just a good comprehension of the prospect's current and/or pre-existing case pertaining to its situation and goals, before giving Buyer a quote to hire Seller to legally work on it - then if that didn't satisfy the Buyer, it therefore wouldn't be likely that Buyer would ever be fully satisfied with our actual attempt at helping them on their case with our legal investigative services, once hired. B. The second reason why a quote is only provided after our prospect (Buyer) is fully satisfied with the assessment, is because if the Buyer was only hoping to receive a FREE (Pro Bono) service, or very low quote, and/or not willing or able to afford even a very fair quote that the average working US Citizen can reasonably afford, then he/or she would be motivated to claim they weren't happy with the completed Investigative Case Assessment and would attempt to obtain a refund since they weren't planning to accept the quote and hire the investigative group in the first place. 9. NO GUARANTEES NOR WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER ABOUT CASE RESULTS WILL BE GIVEN EITHER DURING THE INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT, OR AFTERWARDS IF HIRED TO WORK ON THE CASE IF THE BUYER DECIDES TO ACCEPT THE QUOTE GIVEN AFTER THE ASSESSMENT. RESULTS WILL ALSO GREATLY VARY FROM CASE TO CASE AND THE INVESTIGATORS DO NOT WISH TO MAKE ANY FALSE HOPES, BOGUS PROMISES, NOR TO MISLEAD THE BUYER IN ANY DIRECTION WHATSOEVER. MOREOVER, CASES DEALING WITH PRE-EXISTING TERMINATION OF PARENTAL RIGHTS WILL OBVIOUSLY BE EVEN THAT MUCH MORE DIFFICULT FOR A PARENT TO BECOME REUNIFIED WITH THEIR CHILD OR CHILDREN REGARDLESS OF HOW GREAT THE INVESTIGATIVE PERFORMANCE IS. 10. PAYPAL CLAIMS AND BANK CARD CHARGE-BACKS. BUYER ACCEPTS FULL LIABILITY FOR BOTH DIRECT AND ANTICIPATED DAMAGES OR LOSSES TO SELLER, AND PENALTY FOR BREACH OF THE FOLLOWING TERMS OF SERVICE PERTAINING TO PAYPAL CLAIMS AND BANK CARD CHARGE-BACKS, AS FOLLOWS: 10.1 PAYPAL CLAIMS MADE AGAINST THIS TRANSACTION AFTER I THE BUYER, INDICATE BEING FULLY SATISFIED WITH IT: 10.2 I THE BUYER AGREE TO BE HELD LIABLE TO ALL COURT COSTS, ATTORNEYS' FEES, AND POST JUDGMENT COLLECTION COSTS, DAMAGES, AND PENALTY FOR BREACH IN THE AMOUNT OF $10,000.00 (TEN-THOUSAND DOLLARS), AND PUNITIVE DAMAGES TO SELLER IF I MAKE A PAYPAL CLAIM AGAINST THIS TRANSACTION FOR SERVICES, AFTER ALREADY INDICATING IN WRITING THAT I AM FULLY SATISFIED WITH THAT SERVICE PERFORMED AND AS DESCRIBED HEREIN (THE INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT), AS THAT MAY BE CONSTRUED AS A FRIVOLOUS, UNMERITED, AND FRAUDULENT CLAIM AGAINST SELLER, AND AS A WILLFUL ATTEMPT TO DEFRAUD THE SELLER OUT OF RECEIVING FAIR COMPENSATION FOR THE SERVICE PROVIDED, AND AS TO INJURE AND DAMAGE THE REPUTATION AND/OR GOOD STANDING SELLER HAS WITH PAYPAL AND/OR PUBLIC AT LARGE. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT SEVERAL MANY PEOPLE IN THAT PAST HAVE ATTEMPTED TO FILE A FALSE CLAIM AGAINST SELLER AFTER THEY HAVE ALREADY INDICATED IN WRITING OF BEING FULLY SATISFIED WITH THE SERVICE PROVIDED, WHERE PAYPAL HAS FULLY SIDED AND RULED IN FAVOR OF THE SELLER, NOT THE BUYER, AND THAT SELLER HAS A VERY LONG-STANDING (OVER MANY YEARS) GOOD SELLER REPUTATION WITH PAYPAL. 10.3 BANK CARD (FINANCIAL INSTITUTION/BANK) CLAIMS MADE AGAINST THIS TRANSACTION AFTER I THE BUYER, INDICATE BEING FULLY SATISFIED WITH IT: 10.4 I THE BUYER AGREE TO BE HELD LIABLE TO ALL COURT COSTS, ATTORNEYS' FEES, AND POST JUDGMENT COLLECTION COSTS, DAMAGES, AND PENALTY FOR BREACH IN THE AMOUNT OF $25,000.00 (TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS), AND PUNITIVE DAMAGES TO SELLER IF I MAKE A BANK CARD (FINANCIAL INSTITUTION /BANK) CLAIM AGAINST THIS TRANSACTION FOR SERVICES, AFTER ALREADY INDICATING IN WRITING THAT I AM FULLY SATISFIED WITH THAT SERVICE PERFORMED AND AS DESCRIBED HEREIN (THE INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT), AS THAT MAY BE CONSTRUED AS A FRIVOLOUS, UNMERITED, AND FRAUDULENT CLAIM AGAINST SELLER, AND AS A WILLFUL ATTEMPT TO DEFRAUD THE SELLER OUT OF RECEIVING FAIR COMPENSATION FOR THE SERVICE PROVIDED, AND AS TO INJURE AND DAMAGE THE REPUTATION AND/OR GOOD STANDING SELLER HAS WITH PAYPAL AND/OR PUBLIC AT LARGE. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT SEVERAL MANY PEOPLE IN THAT PAST HAVE ATTEMPTED TO FILE A FALSE CLAIM AGAINST SELLER AFTER THEY HAVE ALREADY INDICATED IN WRITING OF BEING FULLY SATISFIED WITH THE SERVICE PROVIDED, WHERE PAYPAL HAS STRONGLY REPRESENTED THE SELLER TO HAVE THE BANK IN QUESTION INVESTIGATE THAT CLAIM AS A POSSIBLE ROUTINE ATTEMPT TO DEFRAUD A BUSINESS/SELLER. THOSE NOTES ON THE BUYER'S BANK RECORDS ALSO NEVER GO AWAY. 10.5 IF IT'S DETERMINED IN A COURT OF LAW THAT SERVICES PROVIDED TO ME THE BUYER, WERE LEGITIMATELY AND FULLY PERFORMED PER THIS AGREEMENT, BEFORE I FILED EITHER A PAYPAL OR A BANK CHARGE-BACK OR BANK PAYMENT REVERSAL, OR BANK CLAIM OF THIS SERVICE, THEN I REITERATE MY FULL UNDERSTANDING AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE ABOVE PARAGRAPHS PERTAINING TO ME THE BUYER, BEING FULLY LIABLE TO SELLER FOR ANY AND ALL DAMAGES AND LOSSES, AS STATED IN THE ABOVE PARAGRAPH (10) AND OF ITS SUBPARAGRAPHS. 11. VIOLATION OF PAYPAL USER AGREEMENT. I ALSO UNDERSTAND IF I DO TRY TO DEFRAUD SELLER BY FILING A FALSE AND UNMERITED CLAIM AGAINST SELLER FOR SERVICE RENDERED AS SATISFACTORY PER THIS AGREEMENT, AND THEN DURING THE SAME TIME, TRY TO FILE THE SAME CLAIM WITH MY BANK DUE TO PAYPAL SIDING AND RULING IN FAVOR OF THE SELLER, THEN I UNDERSTAND THAT IS A CLEAR AND SERIOUS VIOLATION OF PAYPAL'S USER AGREEMENT AND TERMS OF SERVICE WHERE I THE BUYER MAY ALSO HAVE MY PAYPAL ACCOUNT RESTRICTED OR CLOSED PERMANENTLY AT THE REQUEST OF SELLER FOR PAYPAL TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER (PLEASE REFER TO YOUR PAYPAL'S USER AGREEMENT AT PAYPAL.COM). 12. JURISDICTION AND GOVERNING LAWS OF THIS AGREEMENT shall be in the state where the Seller is located at the time this form (Service Agreement) is submitted by Buyer. 13. VENUE of all legal proceedings pertaining to this Agreement shall be located at the Seller's full choice and discretion. 14. LIBERTY TO DISCUSS CASE INFORMATION WITH OTHERS AND/OR DISCLOSE CONTENTS OF CASE FILE. The Buyer also agrees and accepts that our firm is at full liberty to discuss and/or communicate about the case with any associate investigator or anyone whomsoever that may be of any assistance, guidance, or use in any way towards helping us reach our goals and objectives of the case, and/or for appropriate business or training purposes, and if any client should ever have, produce, make, threaten to make, or indicate any complaints or concerns about this agreement outside of our firm, such as addressing them publicly, then our firm shall be entitled to publicly address any and all parts of that complaint or case file, including any and all confidential parts, for the purpose of attempting to clarify anything and/or to assist any third party entity or government agency to mediate and/or rectify any complaints whatsoever. 15. CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-DISCLOSURE OF INVESTIGATORS OR AGENCIES. Buyer also agrees to and accepts that any and all investigators or firms associated with this transaction shall remain completely confidential and anonymous for the protection of said investigators as this being a case dealing with possible white collar criminals, corruption, racketeering, and for the investigators to remain undercover and unknown to those being investigated, for the safety and protection of said investigators, their associates, and/or affiliates. Again, Agency/Investigator also reserves the right to legally work this case through and/or in association with any investigative agency of its full choice and discretion while keeping any investigator(s), and/or investigative firm's name(s) as non-disclosed to anyone including the client(s) for the purpose of providing our client with the right to deny knowing the name of any investigator and/or investigative firm that has been responsible for holding members or associates of DSS/CPS accountable for their actions (such as if questioned by a CPS worker, under oath in court, or by law enforcement) - while also providing safety and security to our investigators from any attacks or vendettas anyone may have as a result of being the subject of our investigation. In other words, client agrees and accepts that for this fair reason and purpose he/she cannot expect to know the name of any investigator working the case, investigative firm, or associate firms who or that we may contract with and/or for which any of our investigators or associate investigators may practice under. The confidentiality of any and all investigators' names shall also be held as fully private, non-disclosed, and confidential as again not expected to be released even to the client – unless court ordered (as in, if we are needed to testify in court to the evidence we produce). 16. TRADE SECRET, NON-DISCLOSURE, & COPYRIGHT OF ALL FORMS & WORK PRODUCTS. The buyer also agrees that any and all Agreement Forms, such as this one, and/or Any Others presented to me in the future (such as an actual Retainer and Agreement for Investigative Services), shall be deemed, construed, and used as a Federally Protected Trade Secret of the Seller's (person/firm doing this Assessment) which is protected under the U.S. Economics Espionage Act of 1996, which became effective on January 1, 1997, which makes it a criminal violation of this Act, for theft and/or misappropriation of trade secrets a federal crime and Conviction of the theft of trade secrets under the Economic Espionage Act can result in a fine of up to $250,000 for an individual and up to $5 million for corporations, imprisonment up to ten years, or both. Any and all Agreement Forms, such as this one, and/or Any Others presented to me in the future (such as an actual Retainer and Agreement for Investigative Services), shall also be deemed, construed, and used under a strict NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT which means I the buyer of this Assessment and/or future client, agree NOT TO DISCLOSE the content of this Agreement or any other Agreements offered to me by this Seller/Investigator/Firm, TO ANYONE ELSE WHOMSOEVER THAT IS NOT A SIGNED CLIENT OF THAT AGREEMENT - under penalties and liability of One-hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00 USD), all court costs, attorney's fees, and any post recovery collection costs/fees. 17. SEVERABILITY. If any part of this agreement may be deemed as unjust or unfair by any court of law, then parties agree those parts shall be severed and the remaining parts shall remain in full force and effect. 18. AFTER THE INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT, WHAT TO EXPECT IF PROSPECT ACCEPTS THE QUOTE FOR HIRING TO INVESTIGATE. Our prospect will receive a written Agreement for Investigative Services which will outline many things that our investigators may find interest in investigating however, the main first three paragraphs of that Service Agreement are: 18.1 Parental Rights Defense & DSS/CPS Fraud, Negligence, Corruption, Racketeering and Civil Rights Violations Investigation. This investigation includes but is not limited to: A. securing evidence and its preparation for the defense of a DSS/CPS case against client(s). B. legally investigating and holding those responsible for violating the parental rights of our client(s) and/or of any other laws, accountable for their actions, whenever appropriate. 18.2 Securing evidence and its preparation for the defense of any criminal charges against our client(s), as appropriate. 18.3 Securing evidence and its preparation for any possible civil lawsuit executed by client(s), having reference to any of the above matters being investigated. In the event after our hiring, that our client wins or settles a civil lawsuit/demand against any department of social services and/or associated or affiliated party, client agrees to also allow this to serve as a contingency agreement for our investigative firm to receive twenty-five percent (25%) of any gross amounts awarded by the court and/or from any settlements as additional compensation for services. 18.4 Non-Responsive Buyers of This Investigative Case Assessment. If after three (3) attempts to reasonable contact the Buyer, Seller (the investigator), receives no response, or if Buyer's phone or email is no longer in service, and Buyer does not attempt to reach Seller at the Support Email Address on the website within two (2) weeks of payment, to indicate he/she wishes to continue having the service performed or to instead ask for a refund, then the Seller (the investigator), will assume that there may have been an emergency, sudden or unexpected event that has occurred (such as wrongful incarceration, false arrest, etc.) and will wait to hear from Buyer for up to six (6) months only. Per every month that we do not receive a response from you (Buyer), nor indication of what you would like for us (Seller) to do (refund or continue with the assessment), the amount of $12.50 per month (up to the full amount paid $75.00) will be deducted from your payment and applied to our costs of case file maintenance and continued research and investigation of the issues you've submitted in attempt to match other cases we've already handled in the past, or present, or for future cases that deal with the same department(s) and personnel associated with it/them, for the purpose of securing combined case evidence and of its preparation to be used for possible multi-party and/or class action lawsuits - if you or any of our full paying (Hiring to Investigate) clients may wish to use our work-product to be used in a Federal civil rights violation lawsuit (either filed by the clients or by clients' chosen attorney). We will still not charge anything more to do the Investigative Case Assessment if done within six (6) months of payment, even with the deductions for monthly file maintenance and ongoing research efforts applied. If you (Buyer) do choose to request a refund before the service is performed, it will be processed however, your file would also be flagged that we cannot EVER offer our service again to you because Paypal does NOT like to process payments and then make refunds unnecessarily. 19. HATER'S POLICY, BACKGROUND OF PRACTITIONER, & LIABILITY FOR DEFAMATION. I the buyer have read, understands, acknowledges, and accepts the 'Haters Policy' which is unique to the services provided by the investigator, and I've read it on the investigator's website, and it is incorporated by reference herein, as follows: 19.1 Due to the fact that our fully licensed investigative agency is indeed the leading firm in the nation since 2009 with helping very many families - nationwide, we do occasionally get harassed, threatened, and even falsely smeared online by PROVEN CONVICTED (In CRIMINAL COURT) Sexual Predators, Pedophiles, Sexual Child Molesters, and Child Abusers. We do however, provide full investigative defense for those whom have been wrongly accused of those acts/crimes. Nonetheless, some of these types of people support the coining of the phrase "misery loves company" - by trying to attack our firm's well-proven track record of the highest client satisfaction and case success, by attempting to mislead the public online because they are either A. Mad that we cannot take on their case for free at the time due to not receiving any contributions or donations to help us fund those investigations, or B. For opting out of taking on their case due to their own behaviors being HIGHLY uncivilized (not able to communicate in a civilized manner, believing they know everything and know how to do our job better than we do, indicating they don't know what the term "team work" means. C. DSS/CPS workers, staff, associates, friends, and family members, love to try to attack us and bring us down. I the Buyer therefore also understand that RippoffReport.com (Ed Madgeson the owner) is a hater club that has been sued around 100 times, has an F Rating at BBB (Better Business Bureau), and has been declared an online extortionist who tries to force business owners to pay a significantly large sum for him to declare that the information posted is false and invalid. I also understand that RipoffReport.com alters, edits, and adjusts Rebuttals submitted by the businesses in response to any complaints (attempting to make them less merited) which is therefore not a fair business practice and website to rely upon for rating a long-established professional investigator. 20. LIABILITY FOR DEFAMATION. I the Buyer also acknowledge and accept that I have spent a reasonable amount of time reading reviews and testimonies about this investigative group - to where there is no misunderstanding that this investigative group indeed has enough and even an overwhelming amount of legitimate and verifiable positive testimonies at their website and at other websites to merit there to be no good reason for me the Buyer to later claim negative things about any investigator of this group, especially if there are any negative statements made about any of the investigators in this group, that have not been proven in a court of law. I the Buyer also agree to and accept to be fully liable for all court costs, attorney's fees, and post collection expenses if I commit any acts of defamation against this Seller (investigator). I the Buyer accept a minimum liability of $250,000.00 USD for any breaches whatsoever of this paragraph and of its sub/adjoining parts, ordered by any court of law. Whereas, jurisdiction of any actions filed against me for defamation, shall also be in the state where the Seller (Investigator) is located at the time of this agreement. 21. CONFIDENTIALITY AND NON-DISCLOSURE OF INVESTIGATORS OR AGENCIES. Buyer also agrees to and accepts that any and all investigators or firms associated with this transaction shall remain completely confidential and anonymous for the protection of said investigators as this being a case dealing with possible white collar criminals, corruption, racketeering, and for the investigators to remain undercover and unknown to those being investigated, for the safety and protection of said investigators, their associates, and/or affiliates. Again, Agency/Investigator also reserves the right to legally work this case through and/or in association with any investigative agency of its full choice and discretion while keeping any investigator(s), and/or investigative firm's name(s) as non-disclosed to anyone including the client(s) for the purpose of providing our client with the right to deny knowing the name of any investigator and/or investigative firm that has been responsible for holding members or associates of DSS/CPS accountable for their actions (such as if questioned by a CPS worker, under oath in court, or by law enforcement) - while also providing safety and security to our investigators from any attacks or vendettas anyone may have as a result of being the subject of our investigation. In other words, client agrees and accepts that for this fair reason and purpose he/she cannot expect to know the name of any investigator working the case, investigative firm, or associate firms who or that we may contract with and/or for which any of our investigators or associate investigators may practice under.

AFTER THE INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT, WHAT TO EXPECT IF PROSPECT ACCEPTS THE QUOTE FOR HIRING TO INVESTIGATE. Our prospect will receive a written Retainer & Agreement for Legal Investigative Services which will outline many things that our investigators may find interest in investigating, along with the same or similar Terms of Service as stipulated herein this Service Agreement, and the main first three paragraphs of that Service Agreement are: 24.1 Parental Rights Defense & DSS/CPS Fraud, Negligence, Corruption, Racketeering and Civil Rights Violations Investigation. This investigation includes but is not limited to: A. securing evidence and its preparation for the defense of a DSS/CPS case against client(s). B. legally investigating and holding those responsible for violating the parental rights of our client(s) and/or of any other laws, accountable for their actions, whenever appropriate. 24.2 Securing evidence and its preparation for the defense of any criminal charges against our client(s), as appropriate. 24.3 Securing evidence and its preparation for any possible civil lawsuit executed by client(s), having reference to any of the above matters being investigated. In the event after our hiring, that our client wins or settles a civil lawsuit/demand against any department of social services and/or associated or affiliated party, client agrees to also allow this to serve as a contingency agreement for our investigative firm to receive twenty-five percent (25%) of any gross amounts awarded by the court and/or from any settlements as additional compensation for services. 25. NON-RESPONSIVE BUYERS OF THIS INVESTIGATIVE CASE ASSESSMENT. After a reasonable attempt to contact the Buyer, Seller (the investigator), receives no response, or if Buyer's phone or email is no longer in service, and Buyer does not attempt to reach Seller at the Support Email Address on the website within two (2) weeks of payment, to indicate he/she wishes to continue having the service performed or to instead ask for a refund, then the Seller (the investigator), will assume that there may have been an emergency, sudden or unexpected event that has occurred (such as wrongful incarceration, false arrest, etc.) and will wait to hear from Buyer for up to six (6) months only. Per every month that we do not receive a response from you (Buyer), nor indication of what you would like for us (Seller) to do (refund or continue with the assessment), the amount of $12.50 per month (up to the full amount paid $75.00) will be deducted from your payment and applied to our costs of case file maintenance and continued research and investigation of the issues you've submitted in attempt to match other cases we've already handled in the past, or present, or for future cases that deal with the same department(s) and personnel associated with it/them, for the purpose of securing combined case evidence and of its preparation to be used for possible multi-party and/or class action lawsuits - if you or any of our full paying (Hiring to Investigate) clients may wish to use our work-product to be used in a Federal civil rights violation lawsuit (either filed by the clients or by clients' chosen attorney). We will still not charge anything more to do the Investigative Case Assessment if done within six (6) months of payment, even with the deductions for monthly file maintenance and ongoing research efforts applied. If you (Buyer) do choose to request a refund before the service is performed, it will be processed however, your file would also be flagged that we cannot EVER offer our service again to you because Paypal does NOT like to process payments and then make refunds unnecessarily. 26. FULL AND ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This represents the general terms of service for our services, however, each new Service Agreement with each new client(s), will take full precedence and supersede these terms entirely, whereas, the above terms are normally what a client can expect to receive before our hire. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use or purchase certain other CO services, affiliate services, third-party content or third-party software. Choice of Law and Forum. You and CO each agree that the TOS and the relationship between the parties shall be governed by the laws of where the investigator is at the time of the call and without regard to its conflict of law provisions and that any and all claims, causes of action or disputes (regardless of theory) arising out of or relating to the TOS, or the relationship between you and CO, shall be brought exclusively in the courts located in said jurisdiction. You and CO agree to submit to the said personal jurisdiction of the courts and agree to waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over the parties by such courts and to venue in such courts. This site may serve as a web portal and/or referral service of or to any and all states where its investigators may have lawful right to practice and as an online referral and/or representative to/of other investigators such as with the very experienced professionals of J & J Investigations, LLC a licensed investigative agency A2500430 which will depend on the state where the investigator is located (where he/she answers the call from). However, investigations may also be contracted through any other states that the investigator may have lawful rights to do business in as well, depending upon individual circumstances and the name of the investigative firm will be in any and all actual written or legally recorded agreements so there is no misunderstanding of which firm is being hired by the client. No other Waiver and Severability of Terms. The failure of CO to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS 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 TOS remain in full force and effect. No Right of Survivorship and Non-Transferability. You agree that your CO account is non-transferable and any rights to your CO ID or contents within your account terminate upon your death. Upon receipt of a copy of a death certificate, your account may be terminated and all contents therein permanently deleted. Statute of Limitations. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the CO Services or the TOS must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. The section titles in the TOS are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
