These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("Client," "Customer," or "you") and LLC Publishers ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). By engaging our services, submitting payment, or providing information to us, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms in their entirety.
LLC Publishers provides newspaper publication and state filing services for New York LLCs. Our services include, but are not limited to:
Service Completion: Our obligation is limited to making commercially reasonable efforts to complete the services. We do not guarantee any specific timeline, outcome, or result.
By engaging our services, you hereby authorize, represent, and warrant that:
Payment is due in full upon service engagement. All fees are non-refundable except as expressly stated in our refund policy. You are responsible for all costs incurred in connection with our services, including but not limited to newspaper publication fees, state filing fees, and processing charges.
Cost Increases: You acknowledge that third-party costs (newspaper rates, state fees, etc.) may change without notice. If costs increase after service engagement, you authorize us to charge your payment method for additional amounts or may require additional payment before proceeding. We reserve the right to suspend services until additional costs are paid.
We will prepare publication content based on information you provide. You acknowledge and agree that:
Your cooperation is essential for service completion. You agree to:
Failure to Cooperate: If you fail to respond to our communications within 10 business days, we may suspend services without refund. If your lack of cooperation prevents service completion within reasonable timeframes, we are not liable for any resulting compliance issues or deadline failures.
Service Completion: Our services are considered complete when we have (1) coordinated newspaper publication, (2) obtained affidavits of publication, (3) filed required documents with New York State, and (4) provided you with copies of filed documents. Completion does not guarantee acceptance by third parties or compliance with all legal requirements.
Timelines: While we strive to complete services promptly, we do not guarantee any specific timeline. Service completion depends on third parties (newspapers, government agencies) over whom we have no control. We are not liable for delays or deadline failures, including the 120-day LLC compliance deadline.
Electronic Communication: You agree that electronic communication (email, online portals) constitutes official notice and communication between parties. You are responsible for maintaining current email addresses and checking email regularly.
Service of Notice: All official communications, including legal notices, may be sent via email to the address you provided. Communications are deemed received 24 hours after sending, regardless of whether you actually receive or read them.
You acknowledge that we may, but are not required to, verify your identity or authority to act for the LLC. We are not liable for processing fraudulent orders or unauthorized requests. You are responsible for protecting your account information and immediately notifying us of any unauthorized use.
We reserve the right to refuse service, cancel orders, or request additional verification if we suspect fraud or unauthorized activity. No refunds will be provided for cancelled orders due to suspected fraud.
We will retain copies of documents and records related to your service for our business purposes. You authorize this retention and understand that we may need to provide documents to newspapers, government agencies, or legal authorities. We are not liable for any privacy issues arising from required disclosures to third parties in the course of providing services.
You acknowledge that New York State laws, regulations, and requirements may change. We are not responsible for compliance with new requirements that arise after service engagement. If legal changes affect our ability to complete services, we may modify our approach without liability for the changes.

Regarding state filings and government interactions:
While we implement reasonable security measures, you acknowledge that:
