Terms of Service
Last updated October 17, 2026
1. Who we are — and who we are not
Jurably ("Jurably," "we," "us") provides self-help software and administrative filing services. Jurably is not a law firm, does not practice law, and does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or any assessment of your rights, your contract, or whether any document should be filed. You select, complete, and personally sign every document. Our software and services are not a substitute for the advice of an attorney, and no attorney-client relationship is created by using them. If you need legal advice, hire a lawyer.
2. What you're buying
Each order is a one-time purchase of administrative services associated with a document you complete and sign: scheduling an online notarization session, sending statutorily related mailings, transmitting your document for county recording, and status tracking. Quoted prices are all-inclusive of those services and associated third-party costs, and are earned when the services are performed, regardless of any legal outcome. Recording is performed by county officials on their own schedules — we never guarantee recording, acceptance, timing, priority, or legal effect.
3. Your responsibilities and representations
You represent that: (a) every fact you enter — parties, addresses, legal description, dates — is accurate and yours to assert; (b) any contract underlying a filing is a genuine, written agreement you intend to perform; (c) you are authorized to sign (including on behalf of any entity you name); and (d) your use complies with applicable law. If you override information sourced from public records (for example, a mailing address), you accept sole responsibility for the consequences of that change. We may decline or cancel any order that appears inaccurate, unlawful, or abusive, with a refund of amounts not yet earned.
4. Document lifecycle
Legal-description corrections. Your documents identify the property by street address and by an attached legal-description exhibit. You authorize us, before recording, to correct or complete that exhibit so the legal description matches the county's records for the property you identified by address — so your filing is accepted the first time. We never change which property is covered, the parties, or any term, and every correction is logged in your filing's history.
A memorandum filed through Jurably is valid through the expiration date stated on its face (generally 180 days), and may be renewed from your dashboard for the renewal price shown at the time; a renewal is a new memorandum, signed and recorded again, that cites the one it continues. A release is requested from your dashboard: purchased separately (signed with an online notary and recorded by us at the price shown), or — on File + Release — signed in your original notary session and held for you to download for closing or have us record. We may send you service communications (email, and if you opt in, text or phone) about your filings.
Recording acceptance and refunds. County recording offices apply their own formatting and content requirements and may reject a submission. If a county rejects your filing, we will correct the identified issue and resubmit once at no additional charge. If the filing still cannot be recorded — or if we determine after purchase that the property's jurisdiction has no workable recording path for your document — we will refund the amount you paid us for that order, and that refund is your exclusive remedy for the failed recording. Government fees a county has actually charged and retained are not refundable by us. Some states are not supported (shown before checkout); we do not accept orders for them.
5. Use of your business name and logo
If you order through, or on behalf of, a business entity, you grant Jurably a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display that business's name and logo (including a logo you upload or one shown on the business's public website) on jurably.com and in Jurably's marketing materials, solely to identify it as a business that has filed with Jurably. We will use the name or logo only for that identification; we may resize it and render it in a single color to match the page, but will not otherwise alter it; we will not state or imply any endorsement beyond the fact that the business has used our services; and we will never disclose the property, parties, price, or any other detail of a filing. You may withdraw this permission at any time by emailing info@jurably.com, and we will remove the name and logo from our site within ten business days (printed or already-distributed materials excepted). We will not display the personal name of an individual who files in their own name without that person's separate written consent.
6. What a memorandum does — and what it doesn't
Recording a memorandum of contract puts your contract on the public record, so a title company, lender or buyer who searches the property can see it. It is one of the most widely used ways investors protect a deal. It is notice, not a guarantee. Jurably does not guarantee, and is not responsible for, any of the following.
(a) Who owns the property. We do not perform a title search, title examination or title insurance. We do not verify that the person who signed your contract owns the property, owns all of it, or is the only owner. The record owner may be someone else — for example a co-owner, a spouse, a deceased owner's estate or heirs, a trust or a company. Any owner, deed or legal-description information we show you comes from public records and third-party data, may be incomplete or out of date, and is provided only as a convenience while you complete your own document.
(b) That it stops a sale. A recorded memorandum does not prevent the seller from selling, refinancing or otherwise conveying or encumbering the property, and does not prevent a title company, lender or buyer from closing. It gives notice of the interest you claim; what that notice means for anyone else depends on your state's law and the facts of your deal.
(c) That yours is first. Another memorandum, deed, lien, lis pendens or other instrument may already be recorded against the property, or may be recorded before yours, including between your notary session and the moment the county records your document. We do not search for competing filings and do not guarantee that your memorandum is first or has priority over anything.
(d) Your contract. We do not review your contract, and we do not guarantee that it is valid, enforceable, assignable or binding on anyone, or that a court will enforce it.
(e) How long it stays on record. An owner or others may seek to remove or release a memorandum, including under statutes that let an owner clear an unfounded memorandum (Texas Property Code §12.020 is one example) or by court order. A memorandum may expire as stated on its face. Foreclosure, tax sale, probate, bankruptcy and similar events may affect or end your interest whether or not a memorandum is recorded.
(f) The consequences of recording. Recording a memorandum that is inaccurate, or that you are not entitled to record, can expose you to claims, including for clouding the owner's title. You decide whether to record, and you are responsible for the accuracy of what you record (see Section 3).
(g) What we notice. If we see something in the public records that may matter to your filing — a different record owner, a co-owner, a competing filing, a foreclosure notice — we may tell you. We have no duty to look for these things, and our not mentioning something does not mean it doesn't exist.
7. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICES AND ALL DOCUMENTS, DATA, AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR THAT ANY FILING WILL ACHIEVE ANY PARTICULAR LEGAL RESULT. PUBLIC-RECORDS DATA AND AUTOMATED EXTRACTION MAY CONTAIN ERRORS; YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIFYING EVERY FIELD BEFORE SIGNING.
8. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, JURABLY'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES — WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, OR OTHERWISE — IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE ORDER GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. IN NO EVENT WILL JURABLY BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DEALS, LOST OPPORTUNITY, DIMINUTION IN VALUE, OR CLAIMS BY THIRD PARTIES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those jurisdictions our liability is limited to the smallest amount permitted.
9. Indemnification
You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Jurably and its owners, employees, and contractors from any claim, demand, or proceeding — including reasonable attorneys' fees — arising out of your filings, the information you provide, your override of records-based data, your breach of these terms, or your violation of law, including any claim by a property owner, contract counterparty, or other third party relating to a document you signed and caused to be recorded.
10. Arbitration; class waiver; governing law
Any dispute arising out of or relating to the services or these terms will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, seated in Harris County, Texas. You and Jurably each waive any right to a jury trial and to participate in a class or representative action. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court instead. These terms are governed by Texas law, without regard to conflicts rules. Any claim must be brought within one year of the events giving rise to it.
11. General
These terms, together with our privacy policy, are the entire agreement between you and Jurably for the services. We may update them prospectively by posting a revised version; continued use after posting is acceptance. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stands. We may assign these terms in connection with a reorganization or sale; you may not assign them. Questions: info@jurably.com.
