Litigation Legal Questions and Answers

Contract of Service

California

Asked on Aug 11, 2024

Can a service provider unilaterally modify the terms of a Service Legal Agreement without seeking consent from the customer?

I recently signed up for a service that required me to agree to a Service Legal Agreement, which outlined the terms and conditions of the service. However, after a few months of using the service, the service provider sent out an email stating that they were making significant changes to the Agreement, including increasing fees and reducing the level of service provided. I did not agree to these changes, but the service provider claims that they have the right to modify the Agreement without seeking consent from the customer. I am wondering if this is legally permissible, and if not, what recourse do I have as a customer?

Dolan W.

Answered Sep 17, 2024

Hello! I'm so sorry that this happened to you. To modify a contract legally, the following requirements must be met: All parties to the contract must agree to the modification. This means that both parties must sign and date the amendment to the contract. The parties to the contract need new consideration -- something of legal value -- to modify a contract. For example, if a party wants more money for something they would need to provide additional performance in exchange. A writing is not required for a modification, but it is recommended. If they are making changes to the agreement, then they have to wait until the term is over (e.g. every 30 days) before they can make any changes. Best of luck to you!

Franchise Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 25, 2024

Can a franchisor make changes to the Franchise Disclosure Document after it has been provided to the potential franchisee?

I am considering purchasing a franchise and have received the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) from the franchisor. However, I recently learned that the franchisor has made some changes to the FDD and I am concerned about the implications of these changes. I would like to know if it is legally permissible for a franchisor to make changes to the FDD after it has been provided to a potential franchisee, and if so, what rights and protections do franchisees have in such situations?

Dolan W.

Answered Sep 27, 2024

Hello! I'm sorry about this situation. The short answer? No. That's the short answer. Here is the long answer: To modify a contract legally, the following requirements must be met: All parties to the contract must agree to the modification. This means that both parties must sign and date the amendment to the contract. The parties to the contract need new consideration -- something of legal value -- to modify a contract. For example, if a party wants more money for something they would need to provide additional performance in exchange. A writing is not required for a modification, but recommended. You're saying that the FDD has terms that you did not agree to. Without proof that they offered additional consideration (something of value) to you in exchange and without proof of your agreement, the term would be unenforceable. \ Good luck!

Cease and Desist

New Jersey

Asked on Oct 20, 2021

My name is Ocaris and I was wondering what would be the cost to summons a few YouTube channels with a cease and desist letter?

Defamation of character and slander

Matthew S.

Answered Nov 2, 2021

To send a cease and desist letter to YouTube he’s an exercise in futility. They are exempt from lawsuit under federal law. The various content providers that they host is a different issue. Assuming that there are similar issues for the different providers the initial reason desist letter would cost $200. Each additional content provider would be $100.

Demand Letter

Georgia

Asked on Sep 15, 2023

What is a demand letter?

I recently received a letter from a collection agency demanding payment for an outstanding debt. I am unsure if this is a demand letter, or if there is a different type of letter I should be expecting. I am looking for clarification on what a demand letter is so that I can better understand the situation and take the appropriate steps to resolve this debt.

Gregory F.

Answered Oct 10, 2023

What you are describing certainly sounds like a demand letter. A demand letter is simply a demand for payment of money or damages you are claimed to owe in exchange for avoiding legal action. I strongly recommend you consult with an experienced GA litigation attorney, such as myself, before deciding on your next steps.

Lease Contract Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jun 30, 2022

What is the maximum that can be sued for in TX small claims from a commercial landlord withholding security deposit in bad faith?

I recently relocated my office and the old locations’ landlord is withholding my security deposit in bad faith, no itemized deductions for any claimed repairs, and no supporting documentation for anything reasons they are using to hold my deposit. I would like to send a demand letter to them and then prepare for small claims. I just have a question on how much i am allowed to sue for. I heard it is something like 3x of the amount, plus all other reasonable fees. Would like some counsel here.

Kelvin R.

Answered Aug 2, 2022

Justice Courts have jurisdiction of civil matters in which the amount in controversy is no more than $20,000 (or $10,000 if the case was filed prior to September 1, 2020), exclusive of interest and court costs, but including attorney fees, if any. I presume someone has mentioned to you theories of treble damages recoverable under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act (DTPA) for knowing and intentional deceptive acts. While the DTPA is a broad, ranging statute, it cannot convert what appears a purely a breach of contract claim into a DTPA claim (in most instances) absent an separate act by the landlord. You should consult a contracts / DTPA lawyer who can help you evaluate the viability of your claims. Start with your lease agreement. Hope this helps. Kelvin www.roqski.com
