You and Property Shield agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Hennepin, Minnesota.
  • Alternative Dispute Resolution - Alternatively, Property Shield will consider use of other alternative forms of dispute resolution, such as binding arbitration to be held in Hennepin County, Minnesota or another location mutually agreed upon by the parties.
