Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Content Creator Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 9, 2024

Can a content creator agreement be terminated by the platform without prior notice or warning?

I am a content creator who has been using a popular online platform to showcase and monetize my work for the past year. Recently, without any prior notice or warning, the platform terminated my content creator agreement, effectively shutting down my account and removing all my content from the platform. This has caused significant financial loss and distress, as I heavily relied on the platform for income. I would like to know if the platform had the right to terminate my agreement without any notice or warning, and if there are any legal remedies available to me in this situation.

Jonathan W.

Answered Sep 10, 2024

Depends on what the content creator agreement with the platform says about termination. It likely has the platform covered. If they didn't follow the terms of the agreement, you might have a claim. The claim may be limited in damages as most of these contracts, if well written, have limitations on damages under the contract.

Business Contract

California

Asked on Sep 21, 2023

Reviewing a business contract: cost?

I am starting a new business and need to enter into a contract with a supplier. I have been provided with a contract to review, but I am unsure of the associated costs. I am looking for legal advice on the cost of reviewing the contract and whether there are any potential pitfalls or areas of risk that I should be aware of before signing.

Eddy M.

Answered Nov 3, 2023

The cost will depend on several factors: - Length of the document - Quality of the contract (if it's poorly drafted then it will require more work to revise) - Complexity of the transaction (the more complex, the more time is needed to understand it and solve problems) - Your leverage vs. the supplier's (if you don't much leverage, then the contract will require a lighter touch as far as revisions) The best course of action is to do an initial consultation with your lawyer of choice to discuss the above. After that, the lawyer will be able to give you a sense of the cost, and make a proposal on either an hourly rate or a flat fee.

General Tenancy Agreement

California

Asked on Dec 31, 2024

cost to sue tenant for back rent in a commercial property

Commercial tenant stopped making lease & CAM payments for months. The lease has 5+ years remaining on lease. The tenant is personally liable for the lease (no corporation / LLC). We wish to pursue suit, obtain a judgement and then collect the judgement.

Dolan W.

Answered Dec 31, 2024

Hello! My name is Dolan and I'm happy to answer questions for you. If a tenant has received proper notice to cure a defect in the rental agreement, or is a holdover tenant, the law requires a CA landlord to go to court for the eviction (called an unlawful detainer). The main steps in an eviction are: The landlord must give notice (e.g., a 3-day notice to pay rent, or a 30-day notice to vacate); If the defect is not “cured,” then the landlord must begin eviction proceedings by filling out form CM-010, form UD-100, form UD-101, and SUM 130 (the summons); After filing (and serving) the document, the court will wait at least 5 days to schedule a hearing. If the tenant files a court form to give their side of the story, the landlord can ask for a trial date. If the tenant does not, the landlord can ask for a default judgment; If there is a trial, a judge will hear both sides. After the judge decides, the judge issues an order the landlord can take to the sheriff to help effectuate the eviction.

Development Agreement

California

Asked on Jan 17, 2022

Are these clauses safe to sign into in an NDA?

A company approached me to help them develop a prototype of a software application, so they can secure a round of funding. To this end, they gave me an NDA to sign, after which they would divulge their design artifacts for my review. Good so far. But the NDA has these terms which I am concerned about: Intellectual property: At any point during and/or as a direct result of the signing of this Agreement when you create something for the purpose of fulfilling work for (co), said creation is considered work-made-for-hire and is owned by (co). This includes copyrightable material, trademarks, patents (a whole list), whether developed by you alone of in collaboration with anyone else (I am alone). The company owns everything. I got it. Now coming to another point: Indemnification Provision: if (co) of a (co) partner gets sued as a result of your work, you agree to step in and pay for all relevant costs, unless (co) has expressly instructed you in writing that you carry out the task for which (co) or its partner was sued While I would never knowingly carry out something illegal or attract lawsuit, as an individual I have limited knowledge. And besides, I feel this will leave me personally open to legal liability for indefinite period of time, even if someone else takes my code in continues development on it later Are my concerns legit? How should this be altered (if it should) so it is fair to me (if this is unfair)?

Cameron S.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

These are not appropriate provisions for an NDA. An NDA should only cover the disclosure of confidential information - not development and assignment of intellectual property. You should not be transfering ownership of IP (or anything you develop) under an NDA. It should also not include an indemnification provision. Both of these clauses are appropriate for a development agreement or a professional services agreement. Putting this aside, if this were a development/professional services agreement, then you probably would want to protect any background technology or pre-existing works that you already own prior to the agreement (and would license the (co) rights to this background technology if necessary). And, you should not be indemnifying unless you intentionally used third party materials or knowingly stole another party's work to complete the development for (co). This is because it is not feasible for you to know what trademarks or patents are out in the world. If what you develop infringes, that should not be your responsibility/risk. You probably aren't getting paid enough to take on that risk. Copyright requires knowing that you stole copyrightable material, so the knowledge qualifier described above means that the (co) is protected under the indemnification for copyright infringement issues caused by you.

Software Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 6, 2022

Can a SaaS company terminate and agreement with a client?

We are a SaaS company that wants to get out of a relationship with a client. What are our options?

Michael M.

Answered Oct 7, 2022

The broad general answer is that all agreements if drafted carefully have a termination provision. Reasons can be for cause or for no cause. This provision like all others in the contract are negotiated by the parties.
