(a) A choice-of-law term in a consumer lease contract is not enforceable if the law chosen is that of a jurisdiction other than one in which the lessee resides at the time the lease agreement becomes enforceable or within thirty days thereafter or in which the goods are to be used.
(b) The parties may choose an exclusive judicial forum. However, in a consumer lease, the law of the forum is governed by subsection (d) of section 51-345 and any choice of forum in a term of a consumer lease must comply with said section. A choice of forum in a term of an agreement is not exclusive unless the agreement expressly so provides.
