Law School Boost, LLC (“LSB”) is the owner of the Law School Boost website and software. Please read this document carefully before continuing to use LSB. Seriously.

By continuing to use this website and our mobile apps, you agree to be bound by these terms of use. If you don’t agree to these terms, do not use LSB.
In-line with the soul of LSB, to put the following in simple, plain English: LSB products are a privilege for you to get to use, and that privilege may be revoked or impeded at any point for any reason. We do not provide any guarantees that this will help you do better in law school, pass your state’s bar, or improve your score. We also do not provide any guarantees or warranties as to the accuracy of the information provided in the app, though we do our best. If you don’t like it, stop using it. If you run into problems, let us know and we can try our best to help. Our goal is to help you as best we can, but we are in no way going to be held liable for any issues that are caused as a result of you using our services. Don’t be a jerk, and we won’t either.
