Contracts
Restricted Stock Agreement
North Carolina
Can you explain the terms and conditions of a Restricted Stock Agreement?
I recently started a new job at a tech company, and as part of my compensation package, I was granted restricted stock units (RSUs). I received a Restricted Stock Agreement document outlining the terms and conditions of the RSUs, but I'm having trouble understanding some of the legal language and implications. I want to ensure that I fully understand the agreement before I sign it, so I'm seeking clarification on the specific terms and conditions, such as the vesting schedule, tax implications, and any restrictions on selling or transferring the RSUs.
Jeff G.
While there are many standard terms in a RSA, each one can be drafted uniquely. As such, while a competent attorney can review your agreement and explain the terms in plain english, it would be impossible for any of us to answer your questions without a detailed look at the document itself.
Contracts
Service Level Agreement
North Carolina
Can a company be held liable for not meeting the service level agreement outlined in a contract?
I recently entered into a contract with a software development company to build a custom application for my business. The contract included a service level agreement (SLA) that outlined specific performance metrics and guarantees for the software. However, since the project started, the company has consistently failed to meet these performance metrics, causing significant delays and impacting the functionality of the application. I want to understand if the company can be held legally liable for not meeting the SLA and if I have any recourse to seek compensation or terminate the contract due to their failure to meet the agreed-upon terms.
Jeff G.
Yes. A SLA in a written contract is part of that contract. And even without a specifically-stated remedy, you may be able to sue for breach. It's not all cut-and-dried, however, as there can be a multitude of other contractual limitations or considerations that would need to be considered after a thorough review of the agreement, the documentation of the work that's been done and any type of waivers provided for missing the SLAs.

Cloud Services Agreement
Georgia
What are the key provisions that should be included in a Cloud Services Agreement?
I am a small business owner planning to migrate my company's data and operations to a cloud service provider. I have been researching various providers and their service agreements, but I am unsure of what specific provisions should be included in a Cloud Services Agreement to protect my business's interests and ensure a smooth transition. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on the essential clauses that should be included in such an agreement.
Jerome L.
Hi there, A Cloud Services Agreement is a critical document that defines the relationship between your business and the cloud provider. To protect your business’s operations, data, and interests, the agreement should include several essential provisions. Here is a breakdown of the most important clauses to include: Key Provisions in a Cloud Services Agreement: Scope of Services: Clearly define what services will be provided—such as storage, computing, backup, analytics, or software hosting—and whether they include onboarding support or technical assistance. Service Level Agreements (SLAs): This outlines uptime guarantees, performance benchmarks, and penalties or credits if the provider fails to meet them. Look for commitments around downtime, latency, and response times. Data Ownership & Access Rights: Your agreement should state that you retain ownership of your data at all times and have the right to access, retrieve, or delete it when needed. Data Security & Compliance: The provider must implement industry-standard security measures. Make sure the agreement addresses encryption, access controls, data breach notification protocols, and compliance with relevant regulations (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA). Confidentiality: The agreement should include strong provisions to protect your confidential business information and trade secrets. Termination & Data Return: Specify what happens if you end the contract: How will your data be returned? How long will it be retained after termination? Will they securely delete all copies? Disaster Recovery & Backup: Ensure there are clear procedures for data backup, redundancy, and recovery in the event of a system failure or breach. Liability & Indemnification: Limit your liability while ensuring the provider is responsible for issues like data loss, service outages, or unauthorized access caused by their negligence. Pricing & Payment Terms: Include clear details on cost structure, billing frequency, overage charges, and whether pricing can change during the contract term. Subcontracting & Data Location: Ask whether your data will be handled by third-party vendors or stored in specific geographic locations—and make sure you’re comfortable with both. Having a well-drafted Cloud Services Agreement ensures your business transitions to the cloud securely and confidently. If you would like help reviewing or negotiating terms with a provider, I would be happy to assist. Best regards, Jerome Lucas Newell, Esq. Business & Technology Contracts Attorney

Employee Separation Agreement
Florida
Employee separation agreement and unemployment benefits?
I recently resigned from my job and my employer is asking me to sign a separation agreement. I am concerned that if I sign this agreement, I may not be able to collect unemployment benefits. I need to know if signing this agreement will affect my ability to receive unemployment benefits.
Diane D.
The only way to answer your question is to have an attorney review the agreement. Not sure why it would stop you from collecting unemployment benefits, but, again, without seeing the agreement, there is no way to answer this question.

Demand Letter For Payment
New Jersey
I provide$5000 deposit to reserve an apt for my mother in an ALF. Was gold it would be returned if she needed a higher level of care, which she did. they refused to refund
When I asked why they could not reimburse even part of the deopost becasue she needed a higher level of care, they then told me that the $5000 had already been paid to the attorney who propared the promissary note. I have researched the cost of promissory notes and they run at abbout $575 max, I then asked if tthat money could be put toward her goin to the faciity once she had become more stable and they said they would look intoit and never got back to me.
Michael J.
I am sorry to hear about this situation. Your rights will be primarily dictated by the terms of the contract you signed when you gave the deposit, as well as any subsequent written communications with them. Assuming the terms therein are favorable, a demand letter from an attorney setting forth what specially you want from them and why it’s permitted is the best chance you have of getting this resolved quickly in your favor.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
