Terms of Service
Last updated: February 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the services provided by ILA, LLC ("we," "us," or "our"), including submitting a permit request, requesting code violation assistance, or using this website, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use our services.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, form the entire agreement between you and ILA, LLC regarding your use of our website and services, unless we have a separate written contract with you.
Summary
By using this site or working with us, you are agreeing to these Terms and our Privacy Policy as the rules for our relationship.
2. Services Provided
ILA, LLC provides permit expediting, code violation assistance, notary services, notice of commencement processing, and document recording services. We act as intermediaries between our clients and local building departments in South Florida, including but not limited to North Miami Beach, North Miami, Sunny Isles, Aventura, and Hallandale Beach.
Our role is to coordinate paperwork, submissions, and communications on your behalf. We do not provide legal advice, engineering, or architectural services, and we do not replace your responsibility to comply with applicable building codes and laws.
Summary
We help manage and move your paperwork through the system, but we are not your lawyer, architect, or contractor and do not replace their roles.
3. No Guarantee of Approval
While we make every effort to expedite the permit process, ILA, LLC does not guarantee the approval of any permit application, code case resolution, or timeline. Permit approvals, conditions, and timeframes are solely at the discretion of the relevant building department or government authority.
Our services are intended to facilitate and streamline the application process, but final decisions, inspections, and approvals remain outside of our control.
Summary
We work hard to move things along, but we cannot promise that your permit will be approved or how long the city or county will take.
4. Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for providing accurate and complete information, including but not limited to property details, contractor information, architectural drawings, condo approvals, surveys, and any other documents required for permit applications or code compliance. Inaccurate, incomplete, or late information may result in delays, additional fees, or denial of permit applications.
You are also responsible for reviewing documents before signing, responding promptly to our requests for information, and complying with any conditions or corrections required by the building department or association.
Summary
We can only move as fast as the information we receive — you must provide accurate documents and respond quickly so we can properly represent your project.
5. Fees and Payment
Service fees will be communicated to clients prior to the commencement of services. Our professional fees are separate from any government filing fees, permit costs, impact fees, association fees, or recording fees, which are the sole responsibility of the client.
Payment terms, retainers, and any milestone billing will be agreed upon between ILA, LLC and the client before services begin. Where applicable, work may be paused if payments or required deposits are not received on time.
Summary
You pay us for our services, and you also remain responsible for all city, county, association, and recording fees related to your project.
6. Confidentiality
We treat all client information as confidential and will not share personal or business information with third parties except as necessary to provide our services, as permitted by you, or as required by law.
We may discuss your project details with professionals directly involved in your case (such as contractors, architects, engineers, associations, or building officials) when it is reasonably necessary to advance your permit or resolve a code matter.
Summary
We keep your information private, sharing it only with people who need it to work on your permit or when the law says we must.
7. Limitation of Liability
ILA, LLC shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost time, lost profits, delays, or penalties, arising from or related to the use of our services. This includes issues caused by third parties such as building departments, associations, or other service providers.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim related to a specific service shall not exceed the amount you paid to us for that service.
Summary
If something goes wrong, our financial responsibility is limited to what you paid us for the affected service — not for outside fees, penalties, or lost opportunities.
8. Governing Law
These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from or relating to these terms or our services shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
Summary
Florida law applies to these Terms, and any dispute would be handled in courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
