LEGALLY ABROAD

Terms and Conditions

Effective Date:  September 15, 2026  |  Last Updated: September 15, 2026 

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) form a binding legal agreement between you (“you,” “your,” “Student,” or “User”) and The Law Studio of Maryam Greenidge PLLC, doing business as Legally Abroad (“Legally Abroad,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your purchase and use of the Legally Abroad course, including all video lessons, downloadable materials, templates, community access, and related content made available through our website and course platform (collectively, the “Course”). By purchasing, accessing, or using the Course, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not purchase or access the Course.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract to purchase or use the Course. By purchasing the Course, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

2. Educational Purpose Only — Not Legal, Tax, or Immigration Advice

The Course is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. It is not, and should not be construed as, legal advice, tax advice, immigration advice, or any other form of professional advice regarding your individual circumstances. Immigration, tax, and residency laws vary by country, change frequently, and depend heavily on facts specific to each individual — information that is accurate in general may not apply to your situation.

Purchasing, accessing, or completing the Course does NOT create an attorney-client relationship between you and Legally Abroad, The Law Studio of Maryam Greenidge PLLC, Maryam Greenidge, Esq., or any instructor, employee, or contractor associated with the Course. No confidential or privileged relationship is formed by your use of the Course, and any information you submit through course materials, community forums, comments, or related channels is not protected by attorney-client privilege.

You should consult a licensed attorney, accountant, or immigration professional in the relevant jurisdiction(s) before making any decision or taking any action based on Course content. Legally Abroad disclaims any responsibility for decisions made or actions taken in reliance on the Course without independent professional advice specific to your situation.

3. Course Access and License

Upon payment of the applicable fee, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Course for your own personal, non-commercial educational use. This is a license to access content, not a sale or transfer of ownership of any content.

You may not:

• Share, resell, sublicense, rent, lease, or otherwise distribute your access credentials or Course content to any third party;
• Copy, reproduce, record, download, or republish Course video, audio, or written materials outside the platform on which the Course is provided, except where expressly permitted (such as downloadable templates provided for your own use);
• Use the Course or its materials to create a competing product or service;
• Remove, obscure, or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices contained in the Course.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access immediately, without refund, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms.

4. Payment and Fees

All fees for the Course are due in full at the time of purchase, or according to the payment plan schedule presented to you at checkout, if applicable. If you select an installment payment plan, you remain responsible for all scheduled payments in full, regardless of whether you continue to access or use the Course.

5. All Sales Are Final — No Refunds

ALL PURCHASES OF THE COURSE ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE, except where required by applicable law. This applies regardless of whether you have accessed, viewed, or completed any portion of the Course, and regardless of your reason for requesting a refund, including dissatisfaction with content, change of personal circumstances, failure to complete the Course, or failure of the information to produce a desired immigration, tax, or relocation outcome.

By completing your purchase, you expressly acknowledge and agree to this no-refund policy. We encourage you to review all available Course previews, descriptions, and curriculum information before purchasing. If a payment dispute or chargeback is filed in violation of this policy, we reserve the right to immediately revoke your access to the Course and pursue collection of any resulting fees, in addition to any other remedies available under these Terms.

6. Intellectual Property

All Course content — including video, audio, text, graphics, templates, logos, and the Legally Abroad name and branding — is the property of The Law Studio of Maryam Greenidge PLLC or its licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Except for the limited license granted in Section 3, no right, title, or interest in any Course content is transferred to you.

7. User Conduct

In connection with the Course, including any community, discussion, or comment features, you agree not to:

• Post or transmit unlawful, harassing, defamatory, abusive, or infringing content;
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity;
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Course platform, other users' accounts, or our systems;
• Use any automated means (bots, scrapers, or similar) to access or extract Course content;
• Provide legal, tax, or immigration advice to other students while purporting to do so on our behalf.

8. Course Content, Availability, and Changes

We reserve the right, at any time and without prior notice, to modify, update, add to, remove, or discontinue any portion of the Course content, including due to changes in the underlying law that the Course covers. We do not guarantee the Course will remain available in its current form indefinitely, and we are not obligated to update prior content to reflect subsequent legal changes, though we will make reasonable efforts to keep material substantively current.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE COURSE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ACCURACY OF CONTENT. We do not warrant that the Course will meet your individual requirements, that it will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or that any immigration, tax, relocation, or other outcome will result from your use of the Course.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LEGALLY ABROAD, THE LAW STUDIO OF MARYAM GREENIDGE PLLC, MARYAM GREENIDGE, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR PURCHASE OR USE OF THE COURSE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE COURSE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE COURSE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Legally Abroad, The Law Studio of Maryam Greenidge PLLC, Maryam Greenidge, and their respective officers, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your access to or use of the Course; (b) your violation of these Terms; or (c) any decision or action you take, or fail to take, based on Course content, including any decision made without first obtaining independent professional advice as recommended in Section 2.

12. Term and Termination

These Terms remain in effect for as long as you access or use the Course. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Course at any time, with or without cause, including for violation of these Terms, without any obligation to issue a refund. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination — including Sections 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, and 15 — will survive.

13. Governing Law

These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Course, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, and, where applicable to the arbitration provisions below, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.).

14. Dispute Resolution: Negotiation, Mediation, and Arbitration

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights, including your right to bring a claim in court.

14.1  Informal Resolution

Before initiating mediation, arbitration, or any formal proceeding, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally. We agree to do the same. This informal process must be attempted for at least thirty (30) days before either party proceeds to mediation.

14.2  Mandatory Mediation

If a dispute is not resolved informally under Section 14.1, the parties agree to submit the dispute to non-binding mediation before a mutually agreed mediator, or, absent agreement, a mediator appointed under the mediation rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Mediation shall take place in Kings County, New York, or remotely by video conference if both parties agree. Each party shall bear its own costs of mediation, and the parties shall split the mediator’s fee equally, unless the mediator directs otherwise. The parties agree to participate in mediation in good faith for at least sixty (60) days, or until the mediator declares an impasse, before proceeding to arbitration.

14.3  Binding Arbitration

If a dispute is not resolved through mediation, it shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (or, if the dispute is between businesses, its Commercial Arbitration Rules) then in effect. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, in English, seated in Kings County, New York (Brooklyn), or remotely by video conference if the arbitrator determines it is appropriate. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration, except as the arbitrator may otherwise award under applicable law or the AAA rules, and except that we will pay any AAA filing fees that exceed what you would have paid to file the equivalent claim in New York state court, for claims under $10,000 brought by an individual consumer in good faith.

14.4  Carve-Outs from Arbitration

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may:

• Bring an individual claim in small claims court, if the claim qualifies;
• Seek temporary, preliminary, or permanent injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s intellectual property rights or confidentiality obligations, pending the outcome of mediation or arbitration.

14.5  Litigation as Final Fallback

If, and only if, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the arbitration provisions of this Section 14 are unenforceable as to a particular dispute or a particular party, that dispute shall be litigated exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Kings County, New York, and each party consents to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts.

15. Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND LEGALLY ABROAD EACH AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDING TO RESOLVE A DISPUTE WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular dispute, then the agreement to arbitrate in Section 14.3 shall not apply to that dispute, and it shall instead proceed under Section 14.5.

To the extent any dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, both parties knowingly and voluntarily waive any right to a trial by jury, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

16. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

17. Force Majeure

We shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disaster, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, internet or utility outages, or government action.

18. Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or your rights or obligations under them, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, at any time without notice to you, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

19. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other policies referenced herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Legally Abroad regarding the Course, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, whether written or oral.

20. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice by posting the updated Terms on our website and/or course platform with a new “Last Updated” date, and, where required by law, by additional notice such as email. Your continued access to or use of the Course after any such change constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

21. Notices

Any notice required under these Terms shall be sent to us at: The Law Studio of Maryam Greenidge PLLC, 407 Lincoln Place, Suite 1A, Brooklyn, NY 11238, or [email protected]. Notices to you may be sent to the email address associated with your Course account.

22. No Waiver; Headings

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation of these Terms.

23. Contact Us

Questions about these Terms should be directed to: The Law Studio of Maryam Greenidge PLLC — 407 Lincoln Place, Suite 1A, Brooklyn, NY 11238 — (516) 459-4053 — [email protected].
