"Matthew was absolutely excellent to work with. He responded to our project request immediately, was always available via text, phone, or email to answer any questions, and handled our demand letter quickly and efficiently. We got a response same-day as a result of Matthew's demand letter, and we had a check in our hands within a few short weeks of hiring him. He even offered to handle a few additional things, like negotiations and document signing, and finalizing the settlement. Would highly recommend Matthew for your legal needs!"

Cease and Desist

California

Asked on Jul 28, 2021

Would like quote for a Cease and Desist letter

I independently do rescue animal work. A small nonprofit offered to help pay medical bills for my rescues. I learned that they have been posting my work as theirs instead of me. They sent me a text yesterday that they won't help me anymore yet I'm the person doing all the work. One of my rescues died and they are asking for donations on their social media platforms after his death yet they did nothing to contribute to his rescue. I asked them to remove their posts but they don't respond and are collecting donations on my work and rescues.

Alen A.

Answered Oct 1, 2021

Hello, Based on the limited information, it would likely cost $750. This would include one telephone call, a letter, and one reasonable revision. Anything beyond that would be charged at the normal hourly rate of $200/hr.

Earn Out Agreement

California

Asked on Nov 12, 2024

Can you explain the key provisions and potential risks involved in an Earn Out Agreement?

I am currently in negotiations to sell my small business and the potential buyer has proposed an Earn Out Agreement as part of the deal. While I understand the basic concept of an earn out, I am unsure about the specific provisions that should be included in the agreement and the potential risks involved. I want to ensure that I am adequately protected and that the earn out arrangement is fair and reasonable for both parties.

Dolan W.

Answered Dec 27, 2024

Hello! My name is Dolan and thank you for using contractscounsel.com! This kind of agreement can be a great way to bridge the gap if you and the buyer have different views on your business's future value, but it’s not without its headaches. Basically, it lets the buyer pay part of the sale price later, depending on how the business performs. To keep things fair, you MUST have clear rules. I think for you need to nail down what performance targets you’re using such as revenue, profit, etc., and how they’ll be calculated. Be super specific to avoid arguments. Set a timeline for the earn-out, like 2–3 years, and agree on when you’ll get paid if targets are hit. You also need protection since the buyer will run the business after the sale. You don’t want them cutting corners or making decisions that could tank your payout. If the buyer mismanages things, you’re the one who loses. I think if you have some specific actions that the buyer promises to perform that you know helps the companies stay profitable or stay legally compliant (for example), including that in the agreement makes sense. You can ask for safeguards like minimum payments, say-so in major decisions, or money held in escrow. And, of course, make sure everything’s spelled out. We can draft these agreements for you here! Best of luck!

Hold Harmless Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 30, 2024

Can a hold harmless agreement protect me from liability if someone is injured on my property?

I recently purchased a property with a large backyard that I plan to rent out for events such as weddings and parties. I want to ensure that I am protected from any potential lawsuits or liability if someone were to get injured during an event. I have heard about hold harmless agreements and I am wondering if having guests sign this agreement would effectively protect me from any legal consequences in the event of an injury. I want to make sure I am taking all necessary precautions to protect myself legally.

Dolan W.

Answered Nov 5, 2024

Hello! Yes. A hold harmless agreement can be an effective tool to limit your liability if someone is injured on your property during an event. When crafted correctly, these agreements require guests or renters to assume responsibility for any risks associated with the event and release you from liability for injuries or damages. However, the protection offered by a hold harmless agreement is NOT absolute, as courts may view them differently depending on the jurisdiction and circumstances surrounding the injury. For example, if an injury occurs due to gross negligence or intentional misconduct on your part, such as ignoring known hazards or failing to address unsafe conditions, courts are likely to find that a hold harmless agreement does not protect you. For instance, if there is a broken step on your property that you knew about but didn’t fix, and someone is injured, the agreement might not shield you from liability. Having guests sign a hold harmless agreement is a smart step, but it should ideally be part of a broader strategy. Best of luck! Dolan

LLC

California

Asked on May 20, 2023

LLC and member liability?

I am interested in forming a limited liability company (LLC) and am seeking legal advice regarding the protection of my assets and the liabilities of the LLC members. I am concerned about the potential risks associated with being a member of an LLC and would like to understand what kind of protection I can expect.

Gagandeep K.

Answered Jun 7, 2023

In general, there are benefits and drawbacks in the LLC structure so it is important to weigh these in deciding if an LLC makes the most sense for your business. Some of the benefits to the LLC structure are limiting personal liability, tax advantages, and flexibility in the structure, among others. There are also some limitations to the LLC structure such as in raising investment and limitation on liability protection. You can learn more about the LLC structure, protections, and risks here https://www.contractscounsel.com/t/g/us/llc/13. For specific questions about an LLC structure as it applies to you business, please consult an attorney.

Founders' Agreement

California

Asked on Dec 15, 2024

Can a founders agreement be modified after it has been signed?

I am part of a startup team and we have recently signed a founders agreement that outlines the roles, responsibilities, and equity distribution among the founders. However, as we continue to work together and the business evolves, we have realized that certain aspects of the agreement need to be modified to better reflect our current needs and goals. We would like to know if it is possible to make amendments to the founders agreement, and if so, what is the process and potential implications of doing so.

Phillip Z.

Answered Jan 29, 2025

Yes, a founders agreement can be modified after signing, but several steps must be followed: 1. Mutual Consent: All founders must agree to the changes. 2. Documentation: Changes should be documented in an amendment referencing the original contract and specifying which clauses are modified. All parties must sign this amendment. 3. Legal Review: A lawyer should review the changes to ensure they are legally sound. 4. Consistency: Ensure changes align with other legal documents. Approach modifications carefully, as they can significantly impact the startup's rights, obligations, and ownership structure.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
