Subscription Terms

These Subscription Terms are version coveragecases-subscription-v1.8 and have an effective timestamp of 2026-09-04T20:35:00.000Z. They are not effective unless that exact version and timestamp are activated. Starting Checkout requires affirmative assent to the current platform and subscription document sets and express authorization of the displayed recurring charge. A material revision requires fresh affirmative assent; prior assent remains preserved, and passive account ownership does not record assent.

CoverageCases Basic costs $19.00 USD per month and CoverageCases Pro costs $39.00 USD per month, plus any applicable tax. Each subscription covers only the individually registered and verified attorney who purchases it. CoverageCases offers no firm-wide, pooled, unlimited-firm, or one-subscription-for-multiple-attorneys plan.

Live CoverageCases Checkout offers no free trial. The first monthly charge for the selected plan is made immediately after successful authorization, and the same amount automatically renews monthly until canceled. Stripe processes the payment. CoverageCases stores provider customer, subscription, price, status, receipt, and limited billing identifiers, not complete payment-card or bank-account numbers.

Basic Plan — $19 per month. You will be charged $19 today, plus applicable taxes, and automatically charged $19 each month until you cancel. You may cancel through Account → Billing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period. Payments are nonrefundable except as stated in the Refund Policy or required by law. By clicking ‘Subscribe for $19/month,’ you authorize these recurring charges, accept the Terms of Service and Subscription Terms, and acknowledge the Privacy Policy and Refund Policy.

Pro Plan — $39 per month. You will be charged $39 today, plus applicable taxes, and automatically charged $39 each month until you cancel. You may cancel through Account → Billing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period. Payments are nonrefundable except as stated in the Refund Policy or required by law. By clicking ‘Subscribe for $39/month,’ you authorize these recurring charges, accept the Terms of Service and Subscription Terms, and acknowledge the Privacy Policy and Refund Policy.

Exact active status on either the individually purchased Basic or Pro plan is required for every marketplace participant to browse or filter open opportunities, post a hearing, or accept coverage. Trialing, past_due, unpaid, canceled, and every other status do not grant new marketplace access. There is no administrator or firm exemption when an administrator or firm attorney participates in the marketplace.

Basic includes the core verified profile, posting, acceptance, basic county alerts, search, platform payment tools, coverage history, basic calendar, reputation profile, and standard support made available by the current product. Pro includes Basic plus the instant, multi-county, courthouse, circuit, hearing, time, availability, calendar-aware, already-nearby, short-notice, compensation-filtering, advanced matching, reporting, and productivity features currently released and configured. No plan controls an attorney's professional judgment, and subscription price is not the sole matching factor.

Account, Identity, legal, privacy, billing, and existing-engagement wind-down functions remain available only as separately described. A subscription does not establish Identity approval, official-record matching, current eligibility, or entitlement to any particular engagement.

A Basic-to-Pro upgrade takes effect only after Stripe successfully invoices the prorated difference for the remainder of the current billing period and a signed paid-invoice event confirms it. The Pro $39.00 monthly renewal price then applies. If payment is pending or fails, Pro access is not granted.

A Pro-to-Basic downgrade is scheduled for the next renewal. There is no immediate charge, proration refund, or immediate loss of Pro access; Basic access begins only after the confirmed provider period transition. Version 1.8 does not offer the retired $9.99 plan to new or returning subscribers and does not silently migrate any legacy record. Any legacy record discovered during reconciliation remains governed by its accepted version until separately resolved; an attorney's move to Basic or Pro requires an affirmative selection, an immediate prorated invoice, and confirmed payment before target access.

Cancel through Account → Billing, which opens the Stripe-hosted billing portal. Cancellation stops the next automatic renewal and takes effect at the end of the current paid billing period. Payments are nonrefundable except as stated in the Refund Policy or required by law. An existing billing customer retains portal and cancellation access even when marketplace access is restricted.

CoverageCases may schedule cancellation or restrict marketplace activity when an account is denied, suspended, deactivated, closing, stale on required assent, fully refunded for its current paid period, or otherwise ineligible. Those actions do not decide rights under a separate attorney engagement.

There is no marketplace grace period after Stripe reports a status other than exact active. CoverageCases may review a subscription refund or adjustment for a duplicate, unauthorized, demonstrably erroneous, legally required, or documented courtesy exception. Paid periods are not routinely refundable or prorated. A full refund of all current-period payment evidence revokes current-period marketplace access; access is restored only after authoritative active, unrefunded payment evidence.

CoverageCases detects duplicate active subscriptions for the same attorney, retains one canonical subscription, and may cancel and fully refund the duplicate's initial paid invoice through the documented reconciliation process. An ambiguous provider result remains pending for reconciliation and is not treated as a completed refund.

A posting attorney must authorize the exact fixed CoverageCases posting fee shown before publication: $5.00 standard when the hearing is more than 48 hours away; $9.00 when it is within 48 hours but more than 24 hours away; $15.00 when it is within 24 hours but not on the same courthouse-local calendar day; or $25.00 when it is on that same courthouse-local calendar day. The server classifies urgency from the hearing start, publication time, and courthouse time zone and revalidates the current fixed-price schedule before Checkout and publication.

The posting fee pays for CoverageCases marketplace publication and distribution and is separate from the compensation offered to the covering attorney. It is never calculated from or deducted from attorney compensation, a client's legal fee, an hourly rate, case value, or outcome. CoverageCases uses no percentage commission or Stripe application fee on attorney compensation.

Version 1.8 does not authorize a successful-placement fee, referral reward, attorney-compensation charge, connected-attorney payment, transfer, or payout. Any future fixed placement fee would require separate legal clearance, a new hash-bound document version, exact owner approval, and fresh attorney assent before activation.

Subscription and fixed platform-charge questions may be sent to admin@coveragecases.com. Do not send complete payment-card or bank-account numbers.
