Often, the only viable option is to seek redress in court for breach of contract. Hiring a breach of contract attorney can help you protect your interests.

 

Contractual breaches can occur in a number of scenarios, including but not limited to:

  • Failure to fulfill perform in accordance with agreement
  • Failure to perform in a timely manner
  • Failure to pay as agreed
  • Failure to perform as agreed
  • Failure to perform in a workman like manner
  • One party does not allow the other party to execute its obligations

Contract breaches occur in two forms: material breaches and immaterial breaches. A material breach of contract is a “total” failure to perform an obligation that is essential to the execution of the agreement. An immaterial breach is a “partial” failure in which only some of the obligations have not been performed. The actions that a business can pursue vary depending on the type of violation.

A contractual breach can have a significant effect on your businesses’ operation, and you may be able to pursue legal recourse to seek damages that have resulted. Our attorneys have handled thousands of cases, and we can confidently litigate your interests in the court of law or during the negotiation stage.
