Lawyer helps you understand breach of contract
Breach of contract is a fairly common occurrence in the world of business. A breach occurs when someone violates the terms of an agreement. A breach can occur at any time after the creation of a contract. Either party can cause a breach through its actions or inactions. Some breaches are justified under the law and others are not. When breaches are small, the parties may be able to continue performance under their agreement. Breaches that are serious enough to disrupt the entire purpose of the contract may be considered material breaches, rendering the contract void.
Breaches occur for many reasons. We represent clients in all types of breach of contract cases, including:
- Failure to pay for or deliver a product or services
- Missed deadlines
- Failure to meet the terms of an agreement or document
- Disputes over terms in the contract
- Disputes between partners or workers
- Work stoppages
- Other business disputes
When your company is affected by a breach, we will take steps to bring the other party into compliance. We will first attempt to get them to cure the breach through performance or compensation. Next, we can seek a resolution through negotiations, but we are prepared to pursue a remedy through litigation. We will seek the maximum number of damages allowed under the law in order to compensate you or your business for its losses.
Skilled advocate defends clients accused of a breach
In every contract dispute, at least one company will find itself on the defense. We represent clients who have wrongfully been accused of breaching a contract. In many cases, actions that would normally constitute a breach are allowed because of something the other party did first. We also represent clients who have breached their contracts purposely in order to pursue alternatives, in what is known as “efficient breach." The law does not seek to punish those who breach contracts. Rather, the law’s aim is to make each party whole. This might mean restoring any money the company lost or potentially compensating them for the profits they expected to earn. We help clients in this situation develop defenses for their actions and skillfully defend their rights in court.
