When multiple entities enter a legal contract, everyone takes on the responsibilities outlined in the agreement. However, there may become a time when one or more parties can’t or won’t adhere to the terms of the agreement, known as a breach of contract. If a breach of contract leads to a loss for one of the entities involved, the case may be taken to court to ensure a fair resolution. If you have questions about a contract or find yourself as a defendant in a breach of contract case, a lawyer can help you achieve the best outcome. Contact Brown Kiely LLP for a free consultation with one of our Potomac, MD breach of contract lawyers.
Corporate Contract Law
Our breach of contract attorneys specialize in resolving disagreements that involve a business contract.
When one party does not comply with the terms of a binding agreement, the opposing party may prosecute to collect damages. Our Potomac breach of contract lawyers will attempt to negotiate a settlement that’s agreeable to everyone involved. If both parties cannot come to an agreement, the case may go to trial.
When To Call A Breach Of Contract Lawyer
You should call our breach of contract lawyers if you feel that someone has breached a contract and it resulted in a loss of income to you.
Common breach of contract cases include breach of contract between:
- Landlord and tenant
- Employer/client and employee/contractor
- Venue and talent
- Venue and vendors
- Business owners and customers/clients
- Business partners
- Business partners and investors/shareholders
Most contract disputes can be resolved internally before the case goes to court. Our Potomac corporate law attorneys may choose to reach out to the opposing party to resolve the issue without litigation. Resolving the issue person-to-person saves money in legal fees. However, a quick conclusion isn’t always feasible.
How A Contract Attorney Can Facilitate Your Case
