Phoenix, Arizona, Breach of Contract Attorneys
From start up through daily operations and a wide range of unexpected events, contracts are important to almost every business. When parties disagree about what is allowed or forbidden, or one party simply decides to disregard the terms of a contract, a breach of contract dispute can easily ensue. Clients may be awarded attorneys fees and costs in contract litigation; thus, you may recover the cost of enforcing the contract.
Please contact us at The Law Offices of Donald W. Hudspeth, P.C., for experienced counsel when your business interests are on the line.
Lawyers You Can Depend on to Protect Your Business Interests
We encourage our clients to work with us to ensure their best interests are protected when they form partnerships and enter contracts. We strive to help you construct a “legal brick house” that offers protection against disputes. We work hard to negotiate fair and workable contracts that protect our clients’ rights.
However, not all contracts are clearly written, legally sound or comprehensive. Even those that are well-drafted can become the subject of a dispute. When they do, our attorneys will seek resolution and a favorable outcome that protects your business.
Have You Been Misled in a Business Purchase?
During business purchases, breach of contract disputes occur when the purchaser of a business does not receive all the assets or sales he or she believed were included, or finds that the financial condition of the business had been misrepresented.
In many purchase/sale agreements, a business broker has arranged the deal, so he or she has substantial financial incentive to close the deal but may have has little interest in making sure that key issues are revealed and negotiated properly. In most cases, parties sign an agreement that prevents legal recourse against the broker. When you must take action against the other party to the sale, we will counsel you on the quality of your case and the best action to take.
Partnership Disputes – Employment Contract Disputes – Distributor Disputes
Other types of breach of contract disputes we handle include:
- Partnership disputes – Often involving the need to compel a partner who leaves the business to honor promises and obligations
- Employment contract disputes – As when a key employee leaves the business and unfairly uses inside information to compete against you
- Distributor contract disputes
- Franchising agreement disputes
- Collection of unpaid invoices and other amounts due under a contract
Thorough analysis is often required to determine whether you have a valid breach of contract case. In situations where you believe a partner, associate or former employee is acting unfairly, you may have legal recourse even if violations are not explicitly covered by a contract. Please contact our attorneys to discuss your potential breach of contract or other business litigation case.
The business of our firm is business.
