Our Key Legal Services Explained

Breach of Contract Claims

man signing documentIn the world of business, agreements and contracts are crucial. When someone doesn't stick to their end of the deal, it can lead to complex legal challenges.

A breach of contract happens when one party doesn't do what they promised in the contract. It's a common problem in civil lawsuits. This failure to perform can manifest in several forms, including actual breaches, anticipatory breach of contract, and anticipatory repudiation.

Actual breach occurs when one party doesn't fulfill their part of the agreement on time or does it poorly. Anticipatory breach happens when one party says they won't fulfill the contract before it's due.

When a breach of contract is brought before the court, the aggrieved party needs to seek proper legal remedies. Damages can be awarded to compensate for financial losses directly resulting from the breach. These damages aim to restore the injured party to the position they would have been in had the breach not occurred.

In some cases, specific performance may be sought which forces the breaching party to fulfill their contractual obligations. This legal remedy is less common and typically reserved for unique goods and services.

If a breach of contract occurs and you lose money, you can ask for compensation to make up for your losses. You must be a party to the contract and have entered into the contract in good faith. When performance is due and the breaching party fails to honor their obligations, compensatory damages allow for a party to be made whole.
