1. INTRODUCTION

Welcome to Americside.

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website https://americside.com/ (the "Website") and any consultancy, legal support, corporate, business, research, documentation, compliance, paralegal, or related services provided by Americside through or in connection with the Website (collectively, the "Services").

In these Terms, "Americside," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Americside. "You," "your," and "Client" refer to the individual, company, business, organization, or other person accessing the Website or engaging our Services.

By accessing, browsing, submitting an inquiry through, or otherwise using the Website, or by engaging our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms.

If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the Website or engage our Services.

These Terms should be read together with any proposal, quotation, statement of work, engagement letter, service agreement, invoice, or other written document issued or agreed between Americside and the Client for a particular engagement ("Engagement Document"). Where an Engagement Document expressly conflicts with these Terms, the Engagement Document will control for that specific engagement.

2. ABOUT AMERICSIDE

Americside may provide Services directly from India and may, where appropriate, coordinate with or work with appropriately qualified or licensed professionals, including U.S.-licensed attorneys, when a matter requires services that must legally be performed by a licensed attorney.

Such Services do not authorize Americside or any person working with Americside to engage in the unauthorized practice of law.

3.5 Intellectual Property Support

Where included in an Engagement Document, Services may include intellectual property research, documentation, trademark-related support, copyright-related support, IP documentation, and related legal research and administrative support.

Where a particular filing, prosecution, representation, or other activity legally requires a licensed attorney or other authorized professional, Americside may assist the Client in coordinating with an appropriately qualified professional.

4. SERVICES RELATING TO U.S. STATES

Americside primarily works with clients concerning business and corporate matters in the United States.

Because laws and professional licensing requirements can differ between U.S. states, the availability and scope of a particular Service may vary depending on the applicable jurisdiction.

A reference on our Website to a U.S. state, legal rule, business structure, filing requirement, or regulatory matter does not mean that Americside is licensed to practice law in that state or that Americside is providing legal representation before a court, tribunal, regulatory body, or governmental authority.

Where a matter requires representation or another service that must legally be performed by a U.S.-licensed attorney, the Client may need to engage an appropriately licensed attorney.

5. NO ATTORNEY-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP

IMPORTANT:

Accessing the Website, submitting a contact form, sending an email, communicating with Americside, receiving general information, obtaining a consultation, or discussing a potential engagement does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship between you and Americside.

An attorney-client relationship will arise only where such relationship is expressly established through an appropriate written engagement with an attorney or law firm authorized to provide the relevant legal services.

Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, Americside should not be treated as your attorney or law firm.

Nothing on the Website should be interpreted as a representation that Americside is admitted to practice law in any particular U.S. state.

6. U.S.-LICENSED ATTORNEYS

Certain legal matters may require the involvement of an attorney licensed in the applicable U.S. jurisdiction.

Where appropriate, Americside may:

  1. assist the Client in identifying or coordinating with an appropriately licensed U.S. attorney;

  2. provide paralegal or legal support to a U.S.-licensed attorney, where lawfully permitted;

  3. assist with research and documentation requested by or coordinated with such attorney; and

  4. facilitate communication between the Client and such attorney.

Unless expressly agreed in writing, any U.S.-licensed attorney introduced to or engaged by the Client is an independent professional and is not an employee, partner, agent, or representative of Americside.

The attorney's own engagement terms, professional obligations, fees, confidentiality arrangements, and scope of representation will be governed by a separate agreement between the Client and that attorney or law firm.

7. CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES

The Client agrees to:

  1. provide accurate, complete, and current information;

  2. provide documents and information reasonably necessary to perform the Services;

  3. promptly inform Americside of any material changes to the matter;

  4. review documents and deliverables carefully;

  5. provide timely instructions and approvals;

  6. obtain necessary internal approvals;

  7. comply with applicable laws and regulations;

  8. inform Americside of relevant deadlines;

  9. make timely payments;

  10. obtain independent professional advice where appropriate; and

  11. not knowingly provide false, misleading, fraudulent, or incomplete information.

Americside shall not be responsible for consequences arising from inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, misleading, or delayed information supplied by the Client.

8. SCOPE OF EACH ENGAGEMENT

The specific scope of Services, deliverables, timelines, fees, payment schedule, assumptions, exclusions, and other commercial terms may be specified in an Engagement Document.

Americside is not required to provide Services outside the agreed scope unless the additional Services are separately agreed.

Any additional work requested by the Client may result in additional fees.

An email confirmation, proposal, quotation, invoice, statement of work, or other written confirmation may constitute an Engagement Document where accepted by both parties.

9. PROFESSIONAL STANDARD AND BEST EFFORTS

Americside will use reasonable professional efforts to perform the Services described in the applicable Engagement Document.

However, unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, Americside does not guarantee:

  • a particular legal outcome;

  • approval of an application or filing;

  • acceptance by a governmental authority;

  • successful completion of a transaction;

  • avoidance of litigation or disputes;

  • tax treatment;

  • regulatory approval;

  • business profitability;

  • investment returns;

  • immigration approval;

  • trademark registration;

  • contract acceptance by another party; or

  • any other particular commercial or legal result.

Legal and regulatory outcomes can depend on facts, governmental decisions, third parties, applicable laws, and circumstances outside Americside's control.

10. FEES AND PAYMENT

Fees may be structured as:

  • fixed fees;

  • hourly fees;

  • retainers;

  • milestone-based fees;

  • project-based fees;

  • monthly fees;

  • recurring consultancy fees; or

  • another fee structure agreed in writing.

The applicable fee, scope, payment schedule, and billing arrangement will be communicated to the Client through an Engagement Document, proposal, quotation, invoice, or other written communication.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, 50% of the agreed project fee may be payable at commencement and the remaining 50% upon completion or delivery, where applicable.

For hourly, retainer, recurring, or other engagements, the applicable payment schedule will be specified separately.

All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, government filing fees, third-party charges, bank charges, currency conversion charges, payment-processing charges, attorney fees, and other external costs unless expressly stated otherwise.

11. GOVERNMENT AND THIRD-PARTY FEES

Unless expressly stated otherwise, Client is responsible for government filing fees, state fees, registered-agent fees, third-party professional fees, attorney fees, notary fees, courier charges, payment-processing charges, and other external costs associated with an engagement.

Where Americside pays an external cost on behalf of a Client with the Client's authorization, the Client may be required to reimburse Americside.

Americside does not control the fees, processing times, decisions, or requirements of governmental authorities or third-party service providers.

12. INVOICING AND LATE PAYMENT

Invoices will specify the amount payable and applicable payment deadline.

Unless otherwise stated in the applicable invoice or Engagement Document, invoices are payable within 14 days of the invoice date.

Where an undisputed amount remains unpaid after the applicable due date, Americside may:

  1. suspend further Services;

  2. withhold delivery of unfinished work;

  3. suspend access to ongoing consultancy;

  4. terminate the engagement for material non-payment; and/or

  5. pursue lawful recovery of outstanding amounts.

Any suspension or termination will not extinguish the Client's obligation to pay amounts already due.

13. CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY

The Client may request cancellation of an engagement by providing written notice.

13.1 Before Services Commence

If Services have not commenced and no non-refundable third-party costs have been incurred, Americside may provide a refund of amounts paid, subject to the applicable Engagement Document.

13.2 After Services Commence

Once Services have commenced, fees attributable to work already performed are generally non-refundable.

Where appropriate, Americside may determine whether an unused portion of a prepaid fee is refundable on a pro-rata basis, taking into account:

  • work already performed;

  • documents already prepared;

  • research already completed;

  • time reserved;

  • third-party costs;

  • government fees;

  • attorney or professional fees;

  • administrative costs; and

  • other expenses incurred for the engagement.

13.3 Third-Party and Government Fees

Government fees, filing fees, third-party fees, attorney fees, registered-agent fees, payment-processing fees, and other external charges are generally non-refundable once paid or incurred.

13.4 Americside's Material Failure

If Americside materially fails to provide an agreed Service due solely to Americside's fault, the Client may contact us at hello@americside.com so that the matter can be reviewed.

Where appropriate, Americside may provide a correction, continuation of Services, replacement deliverable, partial refund, or other reasonable remedy depending on the circumstances and the applicable Engagement Document.

14. CONFIDENTIALITY

Americside understands that Clients may provide confidential business, corporate, contractual, financial, strategic, and other sensitive information.

Americside will use reasonable measures to protect confidential information received in connection with an engagement and will use such information primarily for the purpose of providing the agreed Services.

Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that:

  1. is publicly available through no breach of these Terms;

  2. was lawfully known to Americside before disclosure;

  3. is independently developed without use of confidential information;

  4. is lawfully received from a third party without confidentiality restrictions; or

  5. must be disclosed pursuant to applicable law, regulation, court order, or governmental requirement.

Where a specific engagement requires enhanced confidentiality obligations, the parties may enter into a separate confidentiality agreement or NDA.

15. NO CONFIDENTIALITY THROUGH PUBLIC WEBSITE SUBMISSIONS

Information submitted through publicly accessible Website forms should not be assumed to be protected by attorney-client privilege or to create an attorney-client relationship.

Before submitting highly sensitive information through a public contact form, the Client should contact Americside regarding an appropriate secure communication method or confidentiality arrangement.

16. CLIENT DOCUMENTS AND INFORMATION

The Client retains ownership of documents and information supplied by the Client.

The Client represents that it has the legal right to provide such information and documents to Americside.

The Client authorizes Americside to use and process such information to the extent reasonably necessary to provide the Services.

The Client is responsible for maintaining appropriate copies and backups of its own records.

17. WORK PRODUCT

Subject to full payment of applicable fees and unless otherwise stated in an Engagement Document, the Client may use the final work product specifically prepared for the Client for the Client's internal business purposes and the purposes for which the Services were commissioned.

Americside retains ownership of:

  • its pre-existing materials;

  • templates;

  • methodologies;

  • research methods;

  • know-how;

  • general legal and business knowledge;

  • internal systems;

  • frameworks;

  • precedents; and

  • materials developed independently of the Client's engagement.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING LEGAL SERVICES

Americside provides corporate and business legal consultancy, legal research, documentation, compliance support, paralegal support, and related business legal services, primarily concerning U.S. business and corporate matters.

Americside operates from India and works with clients in the United States.

Americside is not a U.S. law firm and does not claim to be licensed to practice law in every U.S. state.

Where a matter requires representation, an appearance before a court or tribunal, or another service that legally requires a U.S.-licensed attorney, the Client may need to engage an appropriately licensed attorney. Americside may, where appropriate, assist with coordination and legal support in connection with such professionals.

The precise scope of every engagement will be determined by the applicable written Engagement Document.

The distinction between attorney services and nonlawyer/paralegal assistance is particularly important in U.S. matters because the definition and regulation of the practice of law can vary by jurisdiction. The ABA's Model Rule 5.5 addresses unauthorized and multijurisdictional practice, while Model Rule 5.3 addresses responsibilities concerning non lawyer assistance.
