Plain-language summary: GuruPayback helps you pursue recovery of money lost to online course scams and coaching fraud. We are not a law firm. We work on contingency — you only pay a percentage if we recover money for you. We make no guarantees of outcome. By using our services, you agree to these terms.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the website located at gurupayback.com (the "Site") and the services provided by DMM Growth Solutions LLC, operating as GuruPayback ("GuruPayback," "we," "us," or "our"). Please read these Terms carefully before using our Site or engaging our services.
By accessing our Site, submitting a case review request, or entering into a service agreement with GuruPayback, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our Site or services. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and DMM Growth Solutions LLC.
You represent that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement. If you are submitting information on behalf of another person, you represent that you have their authorization to do so.
GuruPayback provides consumer advocacy and recovery consulting services to individuals who believe they have been defrauded or misled by online course sellers, coaching programs, business opportunity promoters, or similar vendors. Our services include:
The specific services provided to you will be outlined in a separate engagement agreement executed between you and GuruPayback prior to commencement of active case work. Submission of a case review form does not by itself create a service engagement.
Important: GuruPayback is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or legal representation. Nothing on this Site or in any communication from GuruPayback should be construed as legal advice.
GuruPayback operates as a consumer advocacy and consulting service. The attorneys who review our Stage 2 demand letters do so in their capacity as consultants to GuruPayback, not as your personal legal counsel. They do not form an attorney-client relationship with you at Stage 1 or Stage 2.
At Stage 3, GuruPayback may refer your case to independent licensed attorneys who may agree to represent you directly. Any attorney-client relationship formed at Stage 3 is exclusively between you and that independent attorney. GuruPayback is not a party to that relationship.
We strongly encourage you to consult with a licensed attorney in your jurisdiction regarding your specific legal situation. Our services are not a substitute for personal legal counsel.
GuruPayback operates exclusively on a contingency basis. This means:
The applicable contingency percentage depends on the stage at which recovery is achieved:
The exact fee percentage and any additional terms will be set forth in a written engagement agreement signed by both parties before active case work commences. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and your signed engagement agreement, the engagement agreement controls.
For Stage 3 cases, the independent attorney's fees are included within the 50% contingency — you will not be charged additional attorney fees on top of GuruPayback's percentage unless separately agreed to in writing.
To enable GuruPayback to effectively pursue your case, you agree to:
You represent and warrant that you are the person who entered into the transaction at issue, or are duly authorized to pursue recovery on behalf of that person, and that the information you have provided is accurate to the best of your knowledge.
GuruPayback makes no guarantee, warranty, or representation that any recovery will be achieved in your case. The outcome of any chargeback dispute, demand letter, or legal proceeding depends on numerous factors outside our control, including but not limited to:
Past results achieved in other cases do not guarantee or predict future outcomes. Our contingency structure reflects this reality — we only earn a fee when we actually recover funds on your behalf.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, GuruPayback, its owners, employees, contractors, and affiliated attorneys shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of our Site or services, including but not limited to lost profits, loss of data, or failure to achieve a recovery outcome.
GuruPayback's total aggregate liability to you for any claims arising out of or related to these Terms or our services shall not exceed the total fees, if any, actually paid by you to GuruPayback in connection with your case.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In such jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless GuruPayback, DMM Growth Solutions LLC, and their respective officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to:
By you: You may terminate your engagement with GuruPayback at any time by providing written notice to cases@gurupayback.com. If you terminate after GuruPayback has commenced active work on your case and a recovery is subsequently achieved through efforts initiated by GuruPayback, you may still owe GuruPayback its contingency fee as specified in your engagement agreement.
By GuruPayback: We reserve the right to decline or discontinue services at any time if we determine that your case lacks sufficient merit, that you have provided false information, or that continued engagement would be contrary to applicable law or professional standards. If we discontinue services without cause, you will owe no fee.
Termination of a service engagement does not affect any rights or obligations that arose prior to termination, including fee obligations for recoveries already achieved.
