There's probably 5 million words of rhetoric before or after that statment above it makes the whole thing null and void in the end.

Totally agree there but worth an shot for someone to look at.....and only five million lol.......that would be the first chapter I am guessing, but again, its always good to educate onself on some of the laws when speaking to an attorney on this matter further - at least someone can reference this and get some direction if what it says is that, or as we probably think......leads into a mindfield of other conditions.
