Max K.
I am a business attorney and former in-house corporate attorney with more than a decade of experience helping companies navigate contracts, commercial relationships, day-to-day operations, and disputes. My practice includes drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial agreements, licenses, leases, vendor and service agreements, and other business arrangements. Licensed in Nevada, California, New York, and Texas, I also hold an Executive MBA. My goal is to serve as practical, long-term outside counsel to small businesses and entrepreneurs that value responsiveness, sound judgment, and advice grounded in commercial realities - not merely technical legal answers. I handle disputes when necessary, but much of the value I bring lies in identifying issues early, preserving business relationships, and preventing avoidable conflicts. I do not bill separately for routine phone calls. I want clients to feel comfortable calling before a small concern becomes an expensive problem, and I am always happy to have an initial conversation to see if the fit is right for you. www.linkedin.com/in/maxkelner

Asset Purchase
California
I am a seller .Buyer broke the contract, How do I get the earnest money in case the buyer did not agree to sign ? .
I am a seller . made a contract to sell the commercial building. But Buyer did not make to fulfill their jobs, my broker asked to sign for the deposit. They did not answer for long time. Escrow company said without both sign, can not release the deposit to the seller.
Donya G.
That is correct. The escrow agreements I have drafted or reviewed would only release the money if both parties agreed. However, the document should outline what happens when there is a dispute. You will need the document reviewed and then advised on the next steps. As a contracts attorney who has experience with contract disputes, I can assist you. If you would like to engage my services, you may contact me on the Contracts Counsel website. Donya Gordon

Brand Ambassador Agreement
California
Can a brand ambassador terminate a Brand Ambassador Agreement if they are not receiving the agreed-upon compensation?
I have been working as a brand ambassador for a company for the past six months, promoting their products on social media and attending events on their behalf. However, I have recently noticed that I am not receiving the compensation outlined in the Brand Ambassador Agreement we signed at the beginning of our partnership. Despite several attempts to address this issue with the company, they have not taken any action to rectify the situation. I am now considering terminating the agreement, but I want to know if I have the legal right to do so in these circumstances.
Dolan W.
Hello! My name is Dolan and thanks for coming to contractscounsel.com. The short answer? PROBABLY. Generally, the terms of the agreement will outline what it is you can do if you aren't receiving the outlined compensation. If the agreement is silent on this, then the law generally doesn't automatically terminate the agreement; however, you can suspend your performance until you are paid and demand the money that you be paid here. To cover your bases, it’s smart to send the company a written notice explaining that they’ve breached the agreement by not paying you and stating that you’re terminating the contract as a result. This puts everything on record in case they try to dispute it later. If you’re not sure about the specific legal details, consulting with one of us here would be a good idea to ensure your termination is legally airtight. We can review the agreement for you and let you know your options. Best of luck!

Cease and Desist
Washington
Can I send a cease and desist letter to someone who is spreading false information about me online?
I am a small business owner and recently discovered that a former employee has been spreading false and damaging information about me and my business on social media. This false information is negatively impacting my reputation and causing potential clients to question the credibility of my business. I want to put a stop to this and protect my reputation, so I am considering sending a cease and desist letter to the individual. I would like to know if it is legally appropriate and effective to send such a letter in this situation.
Merry K.
What I suggest you do is write a polite, professional, and firm letter to the person(s) and send the letter in a manner in which you will get a receipt, such as certified, return receipt through the post office (this costs $8.75). Keep copies of everything. Let the person know they must stop immediately and remove any and all defamatory posts.. Do not make any threats. You can have an attorney do this for you, but it will probably cost you around $1000. After you send this letter, if the problem doesn't stop, the next step would be to get a civil anti-harassment order through court. This is something you can do yourself. If this doesn't work, you can return to court with a request (motion) to the judge to hold the defendant (respondent) in contempt and ask the court to impose fines. Another option, of course, is to sue for defamation (even for a business), but this type of case would cost you thousands and thousands of dollars, and there's no guaranty than you would win and get paid by the defendant. Although this is a "women's law" website, the website has a great explanation of various types of restraining orders in Washington State. Please look at the explanation for civil harassment: https://www.womenslaw.org/laws/wa/restraining-orders/civil-anti-harassment-orders You can, of course, skip writing a letter and go straight to filling for harassment, but judges tend to like to see some reasonable effort on the part of litigants to resolve their problems on their own prior to going to court. I normally would offer to help you, but I'm going to be traveling and am not available until some time after October 17th or so. I also do not engage in litigation any more myself. Oh, I want you to know that most Washington counties have a website for their courts that provide lots of information and forms for obtaining various types of restraining orders. Best wishes, Merry Kogut

Settlement Agreement And Release Of Claims
Colorado
What type of attorney would I hire for a problem with a HVAC contractor that installed the wrong size of equipment.
I hired a HVAC company to install a new heating and cooling system to replace existing units. The problem is they installed undersized units
Dean F.
A civil litigation attorney can help you resolve a dispute with an HVAC contractor. They typically will help you try to resolve the issue prior to filing suit. And if that does not resolve it, they are experienced in litigating matters in court.

Employment Agreement
Missouri
Is my non-compete enforceable?
If a small company made you a verbal offer of salary, car, health insurance assistance then after you signed the employment agreement, including non compete, made excuses and never made good on the car and the insurance assistance, is the non compete enforceable. I singed based on promises of a partnership and those additional perks since they didn't provide any other benefits. I turned down other opportunities because of the partnership potential and brought my own equipment and opportunity. Now after providing new business opportunity I asked for some protection in writing regarding partnership in the new technology, mainly developed by me and partly carried over from previous experience. Instead of getting the promised protection in writing I got fired. I know that it isn't in writing because of excuses but I also know they would never lie under oath. They are many things but they wouldn't do that for very religeous reasons. The non compete is onerous and those perks were to sweeten the deal so I would sign. I even met with their attorney to complain about it before signing based on their promises which then never materialized and were not provided in writing.
Donya G.
I suggest you seek an employment attorney in your area to discuss. If they are so religious, what happened to you should not have. An agreement for the partnership need to be in writing to be enforceable. If you signed an employment agreement, then you should have signed something when you were leaving. An attorney would need to review both documents to advise you going forward. All the best
