Terms of Service

SMALL CLAIMS GENIE · Last Updated: May 2026

Welcome to Small Claims Genie ("Small Claims Genie," "Company," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our website, software, artificial intelligence tools, document-preparation features, educational resources, forms, templates, communications, and related services, including any content or functionality offered through smallclaimsgenie.com and related pages, products, or services collectively referred to as the "Services."

By accessing or using the Services, creating an account, submitting information, uploading documents, generating forms, purchasing any service, or otherwise interacting with Small Claims Genie, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not access or use the Services.

Important Disclosure

Small Claims Genie is not a law firm, does not provide legal representation, and does not act as your attorney. The Services are designed to provide self-help tools, educational information, AI-assisted organization, document-preparation support, and general guidance related to small claims matters.

Use of the Services does not create an attorney-client relationship between you and Small Claims Genie, any of its owners, employees, contractors, affiliates, technology providers, or representatives. Small Claims Genie does not appear in court for you, does not file documents on your behalf unless expressly stated in writing, and does not guarantee any legal outcome.

Small Claims Genie may generate forms, summaries, checklists, strategy prompts, educational explanations, or other materials based on information you provide. You are solely responsible for reviewing all outputs, confirming accuracy, making filing decisions, meeting deadlines, serving documents properly, and complying with applicable court rules and laws.

1. Contractual Relationship

These Terms form a binding agreement between you and Small Claims Genie. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 years old or have the legal authority to enter into these Terms.

If you use the Services on behalf of another person, business, entity, or organization, you represent that you have authority to do so and that the person, business, entity, or organization agrees to be bound by these Terms.

We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be posted on our website with a revised "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of the Services after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.

2. No Attorney-Client Relationship; No Legal Advice

Small Claims Genie provides technology-based self-help tools and educational information. The Services are not a substitute for advice from a licensed attorney.

You understand and agree that:

  • Small Claims Genie does not provide legal advice.
  • Small Claims Genie does not represent you in any legal matter.
  • Small Claims Genie does not review your case as an attorney would.
  • Small Claims Genie does not guarantee that any form, statement, argument, evidence, or strategy is legally sufficient or appropriate for your specific case.
  • Small Claims Genie does not guarantee that a court, judge, clerk, opposing party, or government agency will accept any document, argument, or position.

Any information provided through the Services is general in nature and may not reflect the most current legal developments. Laws, rules, procedures, court practices, filing requirements, and service requirements may change and may vary by county, courthouse, judge, clerk, or case type.

You are responsible for consulting a licensed attorney if you need legal advice.

3. AI-Generated Content and User Responsibility

The Services may use artificial intelligence or automated systems to help generate summaries, explanations, forms, letters, court preparation materials, timelines, evidence lists, claim descriptions, settlement language, and other outputs.

AI-generated content may be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, misleading, or unsuitable for your situation. You must carefully review, verify, edit, and approve all content before relying on it, filing it, sending it, or presenting it to any court, party, agency, or third person.

You are solely responsible for:

  • providing accurate and complete information;
  • reviewing all generated content;
  • confirming all dates, names, amounts, addresses, facts, exhibits, and legal references;
  • determining whether any document is appropriate for filing or use;
  • meeting all court deadlines;
  • following all filing, service, notice, and hearing requirements; and
  • seeking attorney review where appropriate.

Small Claims Genie is not responsible for errors caused by inaccurate user input, incomplete information, misuse of the Services, failure to review generated content, or reliance on AI-generated materials without independent verification.

4. The Services

The Services may include, without limitation, small claims educational materials, claim-preparation tools, AI-assisted intake and organization, document and evidence upload features, form-generation tools, demand-letter assistance, hearing-preparation tools, settlement-preparation tools, case timelines and checklists, general explanations of small claims procedures, templates, forms, guides, and related self-help materials.

We may modify, suspend, discontinue, or limit any part of the Services at any time, with or without notice. We do not guarantee that the Services will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, accurate, complete, or error-free.

5. Beta Access and Early-Access Programs

Small Claims Genie may offer certain users free beta or early-access use of the Services. Beta features are experimental, pre-release, and may be incomplete, inaccurate, unavailable, changed, discontinued, or contain errors. Free beta access does not create any attorney-client relationship, legal-advice relationship, fiduciary duty, case-monitoring duty, deadline-tracking duty, or support obligation. You remain solely responsible for reviewing all outputs, verifying all facts, deadlines, court rules, filing requirements, service requirements, and legal references, and deciding whether to consult an attorney, court self-help center, or other qualified professional. By participating in beta access, you agree that feedback, suggestions, bug reports, comments, or ideas you provide may be used by Small Claims Genie to improve, market, and develop the Services without compensation or ownership claims by you.

6. Eligibility, Accounts, and Security

You may be required to create an account to access certain features. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to update that information as needed.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must promptly notify us if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that we believe violate these Terms, create risk, misuse the Services, involve fraudulent activity, or interfere with the operation of the Services.

7. User Responsibility and Reliance

You agree that you are responsible for all decisions you make in connection with your case or dispute. This includes whether to file a claim, what facts to include, what documents to submit, what evidence to rely on, what settlement position to take, whether to appear at a hearing, and whether to consult an attorney.

Small Claims Genie may provide educational suggestions, organizational assistance, or AI-generated options, but you retain full responsibility for your choices and actions.

You acknowledge that court outcomes are uncertain and depend on many factors outside our control, including the facts, evidence, law, judge, opposing party, court procedures, filing compliance, service compliance, and credibility determinations.

8. Third-Party Providers and External Dependencies

The Services may rely on third-party providers, including hosting providers, payment processors, AI providers, analytics providers, communications providers, form libraries, and other vendors.

We are not responsible for third-party outages, errors, data loss, security incidents, service interruptions, changes, or limitations. Your use of third-party services may be subject to separate terms and privacy policies.

The Services may also include links to third-party websites, court websites, government resources, or external materials. These links are provided for convenience only. We do not control, endorse, or guarantee third-party content.

9. Changes, Payments, Refunds, and Chargebacks

We may offer free, paid, subscription-based, or one-time-purchase Services. Prices, features, and availability may change at any time.

Unless otherwise stated in writing, payments are due at the time of purchase. Fees are non-refundable except where expressly stated, required by law, or approved by us in our discretion.

You agree not to initiate improper chargebacks or payment disputes for services that were delivered or made available. If you believe there is a billing error, you must contact us first so we can review the issue.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access for unpaid balances, failed payments, fraudulent payment activity, chargebacks, or misuse of payment systems.

10. Communication Consent

By using the Services, you consent to receive communications from us electronically, including emails, account notices, service messages, transaction confirmations, updates, and legal notices.

You are responsible for maintaining a current email address and reviewing communications from us. You may opt out of certain promotional communications, but we may still send you transactional, account-related, or legally required notices.

11. User Content and License

You may submit, upload, enter, transmit, or provide documents, facts, photos, messages, evidence, claim descriptions, personal information, business information, and other materials through the Services ("User Content").

You retain ownership of your User Content. However, you grant Small Claims Genie a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, process, store, host, analyze, transmit, display, reproduce, format, summarize, and generate outputs from your User Content as reasonably necessary to provide, maintain, improve, secure, operate, and enforce the Services.

You represent that you have the right to upload and use all User Content you provide and that your User Content does not violate any law, court order, confidentiality obligation, privacy right, intellectual property right, or third-party right.

You are responsible for removing or redacting sensitive information that you do not want processed through the Services, except where such information is necessary for the service you request.

Small Claims Genie does not claim ownership of your underlying facts, evidence, personal documents, or case-specific materials merely because you upload or submit them to the Services.

12. Prohibited Uses

You agree not to use the Services to:

  • violate any law, regulation, court order, or third-party right;
  • submit false, misleading, fraudulent, defamatory, harassing, or unlawful content;
  • impersonate another person or entity;
  • upload malicious code, viruses, malware, or harmful files;
  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to any system or account;
  • interfere with the operation or security of the Services;
  • scrape, copy, reverse engineer, or misuse the Services;
  • use the Services to harass, threaten, intimidate, or harm any person;
  • pursue frivolous, abusive, or bad-faith claims;
  • use the Services to create, support, train, test, benchmark, or improve a competing product, legal technology tool, AI system, document-preparation service, legal-information platform, or automated workflow;
  • copy, extract, mass-download, publish, sell, license, or redistribute any platform content, generated output, prompt, template, workflow, design, or software except as expressly permitted by these Terms.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access if we believe you have violated this section.

13. Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Small Claims Genie disclaims all warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, reliability, availability, security, and error-free operation.

We do not warrant that the Services will produce accurate legal results, that any document will be accepted by a court, that you will win or settle your case, or that any particular outcome will occur.

You use the Services at your own risk.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Small Claims Genie and its owners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, affiliates, technology providers, agents, and representatives shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, punitive, or similar damages, including lost profits, lost data, lost opportunities, emotional distress, legal fees, court costs, adverse judgments, or damages arising from your reliance on the Services.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms shall not exceed the greater of: (1) the amount you paid to Small Claims Genie for the service giving rise to the claim during the three months before the claim arose; or (2) one hundred dollars ($100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some limitations may not apply to you.

15. Independent Review

You understand that the Services are designed to assist with self-help preparation, not to replace independent judgment or professional review.

Before filing, serving, submitting, sending, or relying on any document or output, you should carefully review it for accuracy and completeness. You are encouraged to consult a licensed attorney, court self-help center, small claims advisor, or other qualified professional if you have questions about your rights, obligations, deadlines, evidence, claims, defenses, or court procedures.

This notice applies to the Small Claims Genie website, platform, software, content, materials, workflows, templates, designs, written materials, AI-assisted tools, and all other protected materials made available through the Services. The absence of a copyright symbol, copyright notice, watermark, footer, label, metadata tag, or other ownership statement on any specific page, file, document, output, image, video, workflow, or material does not waive Small Claims Genie's rights and does not place that material in the public domain.

16.3 Limited License to Users

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Small Claims Genie grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Services solely for your own personal, lawful, non-commercial small claims preparation, legal-information, document-organization, and case-preparation purposes, unless Small Claims Genie expressly agrees otherwise in writing.

Small Claims Genie does not claim ownership of your underlying facts, evidence, personal documents, or case-specific materials merely because you upload or submit them to the Services.

16.5 Platform Outputs and Generated Materials

The Services may generate drafts, forms, summaries, timelines, checklists, explanations, demand letters, hearing-preparation materials, settlement language, document structures, evidence summaries, or other outputs based on information you provide and the platform's functionality.

You may use outputs generated for you by Small Claims Genie for your own personal case-preparation, legal-information, educational, or internal purposes, subject to these Terms. However, generated outputs do not give you ownership of Small Claims Genie's underlying software, prompts, templates, workflows, proprietary systems, platform architecture, educational content, formatting systems, document-generation logic, or other protected materials.

You may not:

  • resell, license, sublicense, publish, distribute, or commercialize Small Claims Genie-generated materials as a standalone product or service;
  • use Small Claims Genie outputs to create, train, support, improve, benchmark, reverse engineer, or validate a competing product, legal technology tool, AI system, document-preparation platform, legal-information service, or automated workflow;

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Small Claims Genie retains all rights in the platform elements, templates, structures, formatting systems, workflows, prompts, and original content embodied in or used to produce platform outputs. You receive only the limited right to use your own generated outputs for authorized purposes.

16.6 Prohibited Intellectual Property Uses

  • misrepresent ownership, authorship, source, sponsorship, approval, affiliation, or endorsement by Small Claims Genie.

Any unauthorized use automatically terminates the limited license granted to you and may result in suspension or termination of access, deletion of accounts, refusal of service, demand for removal, takedown notices, injunctive relief, damages, attorneys' fees where available, and any other remedies available under law or contract.

16.7 No Permission to Train AI Systems or Competing Technologies

Small Claims Genie does not grant permission for any person, company, competitor, data broker, AI developer, model trainer, researcher, or other third party to use Small Claims Genie content, platform outputs, templates, prompts, workflows, software, databases, screen designs, page copy, educational materials, documents, or other protected materials to train, fine-tune, test, benchmark, validate, enhance, improve, or develop any artificial intelligence system, machine-learning model, large language model, chatbot, legal automation system, document-generation system, search tool, agentic workflow, or competing technology.

This restriction applies whether the materials are accessed manually, automatically, through a user account, through public web pages, through screenshots, through downloads, through generated outputs, through scraping, through APIs, through browser automation, or through any other means. Any such use requires Small Claims Genie's prior written permission.

16.8 Trade Secrets and Confidential Platform Materials

Certain aspects of Small Claims Genie may constitute confidential information, proprietary information, or trade secrets, including non-public software code, prompts, prompt chains, system instructions, internal workflows, data structures, evaluation criteria, ranking methods, legal-information frameworks, product strategy, business methods, technical architecture, product roadmaps, internal documentation, operating procedures, and security systems.

Access to the Services does not authorize you to discover, disclose, copy, reverse engineer, reconstruct, publish, distribute, or use Small Claims Genie's trade secrets or confidential materials. No user, visitor, contractor, competitor, or third party is authorized to access, copy, disclose, reverse engineer, reconstruct, publish, distribute, or use Small Claims Genie's non-public systems, processes, or confidential information except as expressly authorized in writing.

16.9 Trademarks and Branding

The name Small Claims Genie, the Small Claims Genie logo, related product names, taglines, slogans, designs, icons, graphics, page layouts, trade dress, and other branding elements are owned by Small Claims Genie or its applicable rights holders and may be protected by trademark, trade dress, unfair competition, copyright, and other laws.

You may not use Small Claims Genie's name, logo, branding, trademarks, service marks, trade dress, or confusingly similar marks without prior written permission. Nothing in these Terms grants any license or right to use Small Claims Genie's trademarks, service marks, logos, business names, product names, trade dress, or brand identity.

16.10 Third-Party and Public Materials

The Services may display, link to, reference, process, summarize, or incorporate third-party materials, including court forms, public legal resources, government materials, statutes, rules, case information, user-uploaded documents, licensed content, open-source software, or other third-party materials.

Third-party materials remain the property of their respective owners and may be subject to separate terms, licenses, restrictions, or legal protections. Small Claims Genie does not claim ownership of third-party materials merely because they are referenced, processed, summarized, linked, displayed, or used within the Services.

Government forms, statutes, court rules, and public legal materials may not be owned by Small Claims Genie. However, Small Claims Genie may claim rights in its original selection, arrangement, explanation, formatting, commentary, workflow integration, summaries, educational content, software, templates, platform structure, and other original contributions related to those materials.

16.11 No Claim to Non-Protectable Materials

Nothing in these Terms is intended to claim copyright ownership over facts, ideas, procedures, systems, methods of operation, legal principles, statutes, court rules, government forms, public-domain materials, or other materials that are not protectable under applicable copyright law.

However, Small Claims Genie may claim protection in the original expression, selection, arrangement, organization, explanation, formatting, compilation, software implementation, workflow design, written guidance, commentary, and platform presentation of those materials to the fullest extent permitted by law.

16.12 Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights

Small Claims Genie reserves the right to investigate suspected unauthorized use of its Services or protected materials. Unauthorized use of Small Claims Genie materials may violate copyright law, trademark law, trade secret law, contract law, computer access laws, unfair competition laws, and other applicable laws.

Small Claims Genie may enforce its rights through any available means, including account suspension, account termination, blocking access, disabling features, issuing cease-and-desist demands, sending takedown notices, seeking injunctive relief, seeking damages, pursuing attorneys' fees where available, and taking any other action permitted by law. Small Claims Genie's failure to enforce any intellectual property right does not constitute a waiver of that right.

17. Termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Services at any time if we believe you have violated these Terms, created risk, misused the Services, failed to pay required fees, or engaged in conduct that may harm us, other users, or third parties.

You may stop using the Services at any time. Certain provisions of these Terms will survive termination, including sections relating to disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, arbitration, intellectual property, user responsibility, and governing law.

18. Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Services, your use of the Services, or any relationship between you and Small Claims Genie shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

19. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Small Claims Genie and its owners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, affiliates, technology providers, agents, and representatives from and against any claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs, arising out of or relating to:

  • your use or misuse of the Services;
  • your violation of these Terms;
  • your violation of any law, rule, regulation, court order, or third-party right;

Small Claims Genie reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claims.

20. Arbitration Agreement

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.

Except for claims that may be brought in small claims court, disputes involving intellectual property rights, or claims seeking emergency injunctive relief, you and Small Claims Genie agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Services, your use of the Services, any payments, any communications, or any relationship between you and Small Claims Genie shall be resolved by binding arbitration.

The arbitration shall take place in the State of California, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. The arbitration shall be conducted before a neutral arbitrator under the applicable rules of a recognized arbitration provider, such as JAMS or the American Arbitration Association, unless another provider is mutually agreed upon.

The arbitrator shall have authority to resolve all disputes regarding the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of this arbitration agreement.

Class Action Waiver

You and Small Claims Genie agree that arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis. You and Small Claims Genie waive the right to bring or participate in any class action, collective action, private attorney general action, or representative proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by law.

You and Small Claims Genie also waive the right to a jury trial for disputes subject to arbitration.

Small Claims Court Exception

Nothing in this section prevents either party from bringing an individual claim in small claims court if the claim qualifies and remains within the court's jurisdiction.

Intellectual Property and Injunctive Relief Exception

Nothing in this arbitration section prevents Small Claims Genie from seeking injunctive relief, equitable relief, takedown relief, or other emergency relief in court to protect its copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, confidential information, platform security, intellectual property, or proprietary rights.

Severability

If any part of this arbitration section is found unenforceable, the remaining portions shall remain in effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

21. Copyright Infringement and DMCA Notices
