Kansas Eviction Solutions β Mediation Services Disclaimer & Limitation of Liability
Kansas Eviction Solutions offers voluntary, private, pre-eviction mediation services as a community resource aimed at assisting landlords and tenants in effectively communicating and attempting to resolve disputes before the eviction process is initiated. This mediation service is not court-sanctioned, nor is it affiliated with any court; it is not a substitute for legal counsel or formal legal proceedings.
**IMPORTANT NOTE** Due to conflict of interest and client confidentiality, we cannot facilitate mediation if your landlord is a current or former client of Kansas Eviction Solutions. For tenants facing disputes with our current or former landlord clients, the District Court of Sedgwick County can provide relevant mediation solutions, and we are glad to offer that contact information to you at no cost.**
No Legal Advice or Representation
Kansas Eviction Solutions is not a law firm, does not employ attorneys, and does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or representation regarding eviction solutions. Nothing discussed, written, or suggested during mediation should be interpreted as legal advice. Participants are strongly encouraged to seek independent legal counsel before agreeing to or relying on any mediation agreement.
Voluntary Participation
Participation in mediation is entirely voluntary and necessitates the mutual consent of all involved parties. Either party may opt to withdraw from the mediation at any time for any reason.
No Authority or Enforcement Power
Kansas Eviction Solutions holds no authority to make legal rulings, determine fault, enforce agreements, compel performance, or issue binding decisions. Any agreement reached through mediation is strictly between the participating parties. Kansas Eviction Solutions does not guarantee compliance, enforceability, or legal sufficiency of any agreement.
Written Agreements
If the parties come to a voluntary agreement, Kansas Eviction Solutions will provide a written summary of the mutually agreed-upon terms at the parties' request. These documents are not court orders and are legally non-binding unless independently reviewed and executed by the parties, which may affect their enforceability in a court of law.
Not a Court-Sanctioned Mediation
This service represents a private mediation opportunity and is not subject to court rules, judicial oversight, or statutory mediation requirements. It is designed as an alternative dispute resolution effort to assist parties in avoiding eviction filings whenever possible.
No Guarantees
Kansas Eviction Solutions does not make any guarantees or representations about mediation outcomes, resolutions, compliance, legal enforceability, or the prevention of eviction proceedings. Mediation may or may not yield a resolution.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Kansas Eviction Solutions, along with its owners, agents, contractors, and representatives, shall not be liable for any claims, damages, losses, costs, disputes, or legal actions arising out of or related to: participation in mediation services, any agreement reached or not reached, reliance on statements made during mediation, failure of either party to comply with any agreement, and subsequent eviction filings, court actions, or legal consequences.
Indemnification
Participants agree to release, indemnify, and hold harmless Kansas Eviction Solutions from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, or legal expenses stemming from their participation in mediation or disputes between the parties.
Acknowledgment
By engaging in mediation services, all parties acknowledge that they have read, understood, and voluntarily agree to this disclaimer and limitation of liability.
