Terms and Conditions

Last updated: 19 August 2026

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Junior Lawyer's Field Guide — an online library of guides, templates, scripts, tools and related resources (the “Service”) made available at practisinglaw.com.au and its subdomains (the “Site”).

The Service is operated by Practising Law LLC, a limited liability company registered in the Sharjah Media City Free Zone (Shams), Emirate of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates (Licence No. 2646736.01), with its registered address at Shams Business Center, Sharjah Media City Free Zone, Al Messaned, Sharjah, UAE (“we”, “us”, “our”).

By purchasing, registering for, accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not purchase or use the Service.

1. Important notice — this is not legal advice

The Service provides general educational and informational content about legal practice, skills and professional development. It is not legal advice and is not a substitute for advice from a qualified lawyer admitted in your jurisdiction.

  • Nothing in the Service creates a solicitor–client (or attorney–client) relationship between you and us, or between you and Jason Feng personally.
  • The content is general in nature, may not reflect the current law of your jurisdiction, and may not be appropriate for your specific circumstances.
  • You must exercise your own professional judgement and, where appropriate, obtain independent legal advice before acting or relying on any content.
  • We are not responsible for any decision you make, or action you take or don't take, in reliance on the Service.

2. Eligibility and your account

2.1 You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service.

2.2 The Service is sold to individuals for their own personal, professional use. When you register you must provide accurate and complete information and keep it up to date.

2.3 Your account and login credentials are personal to you. You must not share, sell, transfer or otherwise make them available to anyone else. You are responsible for all activity under your account and for keeping your credentials secure. Tell us promptly at jason@practisinglaw.com.au if you suspect unauthorised use.

2.4 We may suspend or terminate accounts that are shared, or that we reasonably believe are being used in breach of these Terms (see clause 9).

3. What you get — access and licence

3.1 On successful payment we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable licence to access and use the Service and its content for your own individual professional development.

3.2 You may download templates and materials that are made available for download, and adapt them for use in your own legal work.

3.3 You must not, and must not permit anyone else to:

  • share, resell, sublicense, rent, lend, distribute, publish or make the content available to any third party (including within a firm or team beyond your own licensed use);
  • reproduce or republish the content, in whole or in substantial part, on any other platform;
  • use automated means (scraping, bots, bulk downloading or extraction, including via the AI-powered search) to copy or harvest the content;
  • remove or alter any copyright, trademark or other proprietary notices; or
  • use the content to build, train or populate a competing product or dataset.

3.4 Team and firm use. A single licence covers one person. If you want access for a team, firm or organisation, contact us at jason@practisinglaw.com.au for a separate arrangement.

4. Intellectual property

4.1 All content in the Service — including guides, templates, scripts, text, graphics, the Site design, and the “Junior Lawyer's Field Guide” name and branding — is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.

4.2 Except for the licence in clause 3, no rights are granted to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

4.3 If you provide feedback, questions or suggestions (including questions submitted to the Q&A feature), you grant us a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use them to operate and improve the Service. We will not publish content that identifies you without your consent.

5. Payment, pricing and “lifetime access”

5.1 The price for the Service is the price shown at checkout at the time of your purchase. Prices are stated in the currency indicated at checkout (currently Australian dollars) and, unless stated otherwise, are exclusive of any taxes, which will be added where applicable.

5.2 Payment is a one-time payment processed by our third-party payment provider, Stripe. We do not receive or store your full card details. Your use of Stripe is subject to Stripe's terms and privacy policy.

5.3 Promotional pricing.We may offer promotional or “founding member” pricing for a limited time, and our prices may change at any time. The price you paid at checkout is the price for your purchase; price changes do not affect purchases already made.

5.4 “Lifetime access” means access for as long as we continue to operate the Service. It does not mean perpetual or guaranteed availability. We may modify, suspend or discontinue the Service (or parts of it) — see clause 8. If we permanently discontinue the entire Service, we will give reasonable notice where practicable; clause 7 governs any liability.

6. Refunds and cancellation

6.1 7-day satisfaction guarantee.If the Service isn't right for you, email us at jason@practisinglaw.com.au within 7 days of your purchase and we will refund you in full.

6.2 Immediate access to digital content.Because the Service is digital content delivered immediately, by purchasing and accessing it you acknowledge that you begin using it straight away. Where your local law gives consumers a statutory cancellation or “cooling-off” right for digital content (for example in the EU or UK), you consent to immediate access and acknowledge that this may cause you to lose that statutory withdrawal right. This does not affect the 7-day guarantee in clause 6.1, and nothing in this clause limits rights that cannot be excluded under the law that applies to you (see clause 11).

6.3 Refunds are made to your original payment method. We are not obliged to provide refunds outside clause 6.1 except where required by law.

7. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

7.1 The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude all warranties, whether express or implied, including as to accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.

7.2 We do not warrant that the content is current, complete or applicable to your jurisdiction or circumstances (see clause 1).

7.3 To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or any loss of profits, data, goodwill or opportunity, arising out of or in connection with the Service.

7.4 To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Service and these Terms is limited to the total amount you paid us for the Service.

7.5 Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law, including certain consumer guarantees (see clause 11).

8. Changes to the Service and to these Terms

8.1 We may add to, change, suspend or withdraw features or content at any time to improve the Service or for operational, legal or security reasons.

8.2 We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes we will take reasonable steps to notify you (for example by email or a notice on the Site). Changes apply from the date they are posted. Your continued use after that date means you accept the updated Terms. The version that applied to your original purchase governs that purchase where the law requires.

9. Suspension and termination

9.1 We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you breach these Terms (in particular the licence and account clauses 2 and 3), or if required by law.

9.2 You may stop using the Service at any time.

9.3 On termination for your breach, the licence in clause 3 ends and you must stop using and delete any downloaded content, save that we may retain records as required by law. Clauses that by their nature should survive (including 1, 4, 7, 11 and 12) survive termination.

10. Acceptable use and third-party services

10.1 You must use the Service lawfully and must not misuse it, interfere with its operation, attempt to gain unauthorised access, or use it to infringe anyone's rights.

10.2 The Service relies on third-party providers (including for authentication, payments, hosting and AI-powered search). We are not responsible for third-party services, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms.

11. Consumers and mandatory local law

11.1 If you are a consumer, you may have rights under the mandatory consumer-protection laws of the country where you live that cannot be excluded, restricted or modified by contract.

11.2 Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies those rights. Where a term of these Terms would do so, it applies only to the extent permitted by that law. For example, if you are in Australia, certain guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law may apply; if you are in the UK or EU, certain digital-content rights may apply.

12. Governing law and disputes

12.1 These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them or the Service, are governed by the federal laws of the United Arab Emirates as applied in the Emirate of Sharjah, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.

12.2 The courts of the Emirate of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any such dispute.

12.3 Clauses 12.1 and 12.2 do not deprive you, as a consumer, of the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live (see clause 11), or of the right (where the law gives it) to bring proceedings in your local courts.

13. General

13.1 Entire agreement. These Terms (with our Privacy Policy) are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service.

13.2 Severability. If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.

13.3 No waiver. A failure to enforce a term is not a waiver of it.

13.4 Assignment. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms. We may transfer ours to a successor in connection with a sale or reorganisation of our business.

13.5 Notices / contact. Contact us about these Terms or the Service at jason@practisinglaw.com.au.
