TIMMONS-GOODSON, Judge.

A.C. Schultes of Maryland, Inc. (“AC Schultes”), A.C.S. & Sons, Inc. (“ACS”), John O’Brien (“O’Brien”), and William Jefferys (“Jefferys”) (collectively, “defendants”) appeal the trial court order denying their motions to compel arbitration of a suit filed by Rebecca Hoyle Ellen (“Rebecca”), Angela Ellen (“Angela”), and Florence Oakley (“Oakley”) (collectively, “plaintiffs”). 1 Because we conclude that the arbitration clause at issue is not enforceable against plaintiffs, we affirm the order of the trial court.
