Thanks Sparky for your help, the solution your provided gave me the answer. It seems having the submitHandler causes some confusion for the submit logic.

I removed the submitHandler and added the following to success callback and everything works as expected

success: {
         label: "Submit",
         className: "btn btn-sm btn-primary",
         callback: function () {
             if($("#webteamContactForm").valid()){
                    var form = $("#webteamContactForm");
                    form.submit();
                } else {
                    return false;
                }
         }
    }
