Business Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Business Contracts
Memorandum of Understanding
New York
Can a Memorandum of Understanding be legally binding?
Can a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) be considered legally binding in a business agreement, specifically in the context of a joint venture between two companies, where the MoU outlines the key terms and conditions agreed upon by both parties, but does not explicitly state that it is legally binding? I am seeking clarification on the enforceability of an MoU as I want to ensure that both parties are held accountable to the agreed-upon terms and that there are legal remedies available in case of a breach.
Damien B.
Hello. A Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU") can be legally binding. It is best practice for it to say so. Otherwise, the issue would be whether the parties intended the MoU to be legally binding. This discrepancy would lead to protracted litigation.
Business Contracts
Asset Purchase Agreement
Washington
Is confidentiality required in an asset purchase agreement?
I am considering purchasing a business asset and the seller has presented me with an Asset Purchase Agreement. I understand that these agreements typically contain confidential information, but I am not sure if confidentiality is required in this particular agreement. I would like to know whether confidentiality is necessary and what the consequences might be if the agreement is not kept confidential.
Merry K.
There is no requirement for confidentiality in ANY type of contract; this is a negotiated term, like all other terms in any contract (except that in some instances, such as WA State Residential Landlord/Tenant contracts, state law may supercede terms in a lease that would violate the law). As far as breach of a confidentiality term (or any other term) in a contract, often the contract itself will state what the consequences may be for a breach - however, if this is not specified, the other party could sue for breach of contract - what a court may decide to award would generally be based on the amount of damages the Plaintiff incurred by having the breach occur. If you are considering buying a business, I urge you to have all paperwork, your business plan, your finances, and all other important documents and information reviewed by a business attorney prior to signing anything at all.
Business Contracts
Independent Contractor Agreement
Connecticut
Can I provide services to the client company as a corporation in CT, NY and/ or PA?
I am currently employed as a Construction Manager by a manpower supplier company to their client with a one-year non-compete/ solicit clause. I identified a need for technician services and want to register as a technician service supplier to the client. Client supplier conditions require that I disclose any current work with them, which is ok. Work locations for the technician services will be Connecticut, New York, and Pennyslyvania. Can I go ahead with the registration since the service in question is different from my current role -Construction Manager versus technician?
JOSEPH L.
Whether or not you can provide services to a client company that you were assigned to by a manpower supplier company would depend on a few factors. 1. What state law applies as stated in the written agreement, which I assume is an independent contractor agreement? 2. What that state law establishes regarding the enforcement of non-compete agreements Business laws very from state to state regarding enforcement of agreements with employees and independent contracts; states don't like to restrict workers unless the restrictions are relevant and related to a defined and reasonable business purpose. 3. You may also be subject to state law based on where you live and where you are providing the services, regardless of what the written agreement states. 4. Non-solicitation language must be reviewed. Does your written agreement state that you cannot solicit them and does this company also have a non-solicit that they will not solicit you? You have to look at it both ways. 5. The exact language of the contract you signed will be very important, especially in how they defined the work you have been performing for that CLient you want to work for.
Business Contracts
Service Provider Agreement
Virginia
What contracts do I need for my business?
Hello, My name is Brian Vargas and I’m the CEO & Founder of chorrz.com - an e-commerce platform website that will provide apartment cleaning services through leveraging partnerships with local cleaning providers. My company CHORRZ would operate as follows - I would be partnering with local cleaning providers - (i.e., Marie’s Cleaning Service) who already have their own insurance and this entity would be providing the clean upon being booked by the apartment resident through my platform, chorrz.com. These cleaning providers would effectively be independent contractors and not my employees as CHORRZ is only the platform for seeing local cleaners to book a clean from. My question relates to which type of contract or agreement is suitable for this style of business? A Service Partnership Agreement or maybe an Independent Contractor Agreement? I’ll be partnering with cleaning businesses run by 1 person (the owner) and cleaning companies with multiple cleaners employed. Kind regards, Brian
Jane C.
I suggest you have a consultation with an attorney. A service agreement or independent contractor contract may work depending on the circumstances. Best of luck with your new venture.
Business Contracts
Noncompete Agreement
Florida
Noncompete agreement for consultants?
I am a consultant who is looking to take on a new client, but the client requires me to sign a Noncompete Agreement. I want to make sure that I am not signing away my rights, and that the agreement is fair and reasonable. I am also interested in understanding how this agreement would affect my ability to work with other clients.
Venus C.
Hello. I appreciate your concerns about signing a Noncompete Agreement. It's essential to protect your rights and ensure the agreement is fair and reasonable given that a noncompete typically restricts competing activities during or after the term of engagement. Without knowing more about the business relationship and reviewing the actual terms, whether the non-compete is fair, reasonable, or even enforceable remains an open-ended question. Bearing this in mind, if the noncompete is preventing you from taking on other clients during or after the end of your relationship (or both), the scope of this restriction must be reasonable in terms of time, geographic area, and the specific activities it seeks to prevent. For example, does the noncompete specify the types of clients, industries, or geographic areas that are off-limits? What is the duration of the noncompete? If the client breaches your main agreement, will that render your noncompete void and unenforceable? These are just a few general questions that require a thorough review and analysis against Florida non-compete laws. Overall, the ultimate goal is to carefully review the terms to understand how they might impact your ability to take on new clients. If you don’t understand or are unsure about the contractual terms and their legal implications, it's highly recommended you consult with an attorney who can review the noncompete and provide you with personalized legal advice before you sign.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
