I was referred to Robert by Ruge Law Group when they were actually KRG Law Group. They handled a car accident I was involved in. This was a business debt collection levied against our company by an employee’s debt collector. He and his colleagues handled it flawlessly. He and his staff are beyond impressive and do everything they can to take the cases brought before them. I came back to them with a very big case. I don’t want to dox anyone in the office other than the name on the business. However, they handled it in the most professional, respectful, and caring way possible. J, you did an amazing job and due diligence! Robert, I wanted to personally thank you for representing us in the past and in the future. You and your paralegals are above Top Shelf. This firm is straight Louis XIII.
How To Prevent a Breach of Contract
A contract is a written or spoken agreement that governs a transaction or relationship between two or more parties. The terms stipulated within this agreement are meant to be adhered to by all parties involved.
Unfortunately, there are certain instances wherein one of the parties breaks these terms, putting the others at a disadvantage. In this case, the compromised parties may seek relief from the courts by proving the other party’s liability for breach of contract.
Even though this relief is available as an option, it is still better to prevent opportunities for a breach of contract from occurring, given how severe the fallout may be. For this, you should consult with a Palm Harbor business & contracts attorney to help you make your contracts as ironclad as they can be.
Preventing a Breach of Contract
Contracts should be concise and direct to the point to avoid confusion. The only real defense against a breach of contract is by expressing your terms as clearly as possible. Avoid ambiguous language that may confuse you later on.
Explicitly identify who the parties involved are and what specific roles they play in this contract. The objectives of the contract should then be outlined, followed by the specific terms agreed upon by all signatories.
Exceptions to the general rule should be clearly stipulated and addressed too. Be careful that the exceptions do not overshadow the general rule nor overshadow the original intent or objective of the contract.
Be specific when or enumerating stipulations in the contracts. Be precise as well, because whatever is not specifically mentioned can be cause for ambiguity later on.
