I believe, as an IP attorney, that I can facilitate the development of new technologies by protecting your rights from infringement or helping you enter the market by establishing those rights from the ground up. More importantly, I believe it should be an open and affordable process that’s accessible to anyone pushing the bounds of innovation.

Contracts
Independent Contractor Agreement
North Carolina
What fees are usual in an independent contractor agreement?
I am an independent contractor who is in the process of signing an agreement with a client. I am looking for more information about the fees that are usually associated with such an agreement. I want to make sure that I am aware of all the fees associated with the contract so that I do not encounter any surprises down the line.
Steven W.
There are no set fees that are in an independent contractor agreement. Generally, what is covered are the fees or costs associated with the work or project and they may also include expenses incurred related to the work or project, such as travel and/or accommodations.
Contracts
Severance Agreement
North Carolina
Severance agreement and confidentiality of terms?
I recently left my job of five years and was offered a severance agreement. I am now concerned about the confidentiality of the terms of the agreement, as I am worried that the terms of the agreement could be shared with other potential employers. I am seeking legal advice to understand my rights and obligations regarding the confidentiality of the severance agreement.
Shelia H.
In most cases, a severance agreement will have a confidentiality provision included. However, even if there is a confidentiality agreement, there are some instances where that confidentiality may be broken. For instance, in the case of a court order requesting the release of information or a government agency, such as the IRS or the state taxing or unemployment office, an employer may have to release information. There are also laws that prohibit the release of certain private information. In your case, it sounds as if your employer didn't include a confidentiality provision in the severance agreement, and for contracts, the general rule is that if a provision isn't included in the contract, it's not included in the contract. That being said, you may want to contact the employer and ask what the employer's policy is regarding the release of information to potential employers that you may be seeking to work with. There are also two laws that you may want to consider speaking to a NC-licensed attorney about. They are the following: 1.§ 1-539.12. Immunity from civil liability for employers disclosing information. "(a) An employer who discloses information about a current or former employee's job history or job performance to a prospective employer of the current or former employee upon request of the prospective employer or upon request of the current or former employee is immune from civil liability and is not liable in civil damages for the disclosure or any consequences of the disclosure." 2. § 14-355. Blacklisting employees. "If any person, agent, company or corporation, after having discharged any employee from his or its service, shall prevent or attempt to prevent, by word or writing of any kind, such discharged employee from obtaining employment with any other person, company or corporation, such person, agent or corporation shall be guilty of a Class 3 misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500.00); and such person, agent, company or corporation shall be liable in penal damages to such discharged person, to be recovered by civil action.

SaaS Reseller Agreement
North Carolina
Can a SaaS reseller agreement be terminated by the software provider without cause?
Can a SaaS reseller agreement be terminated by the software provider without cause? I am a software reseller who has entered into a reseller agreement with a SaaS provider. The agreement does not specify any termination clauses or conditions, but it also does not explicitly state that the software provider can terminate the agreement without cause. Recently, the software provider informed me that they will be terminating the agreement without providing any specific reason. I am concerned about the potential impact on my business and want to understand if the software provider has the legal right to terminate the agreement without cause, and if so, what my options are moving forward.
Jeff G.
Hi. The answer is entirely dependent on the agreement’s language. Without seeing the contract, it’s impossible to give you a complete answer. Generally, an agreement can only be terminated by it’s own conditions, and absent a specific termination clause, it can usually be terminated either due to a breach of the agreement or by suing for breach and asking for termination as the result (so-called “equitable relief”). But with a reseller agreement, there are lots of new variables, as you’re not a user of the product… questions about to who and when you can resell., specific product versions, support provisions, etc. And there’s also a general prohibition against contracts of servitude, requiring an indefinite provision of personal services (which a SaaS contract could be argued to be). So again, the contract language is critical.
Contracts
Agreement And Release
North Carolina
We signed a contract with a travel baseball team and in the middle of a game the coach lost it and started cussing in front of my son. Is that a breach of contract?
This is what we initialed. NCBA Team Players will carry themselves and conduct themselves with the highest degree of integrity and class. We expect to set the standard for sportsmanship, respect of the game, respect of our opponents, respect for the umpires and everyone that allows us to play this great game. Our appearance will be professional and our manners will reflect our character. Language not conducive to these standards will not be tolerated. These simple rules allow you to represent your family name, the game of baseball and the NCBA at all times with class on and off the field of play
Richard G.
That clause addresses the NCBA Team Players' conduct. I would need to see the entire agreement to know what the coach's obligations are, if any.
Contracts
Non-Competition Agreement
North Carolina
Can you review 2 Non compete agreements to ensure I’m not in violation
I found a noncompete agreement with a prior employer. The potential employer wants to hire me and is asking me to sign another noncompete. I need someone to look over both agreements to ensure I’m not in violation
Cindy A.
Yes. Have you signed both agreements?
