"I hired Scott to review a commercial real estate contract, and I was very pleased with his work. He demonstrated a high level of experience and knowledge throughout the process, clearly explaining key terms and potential issues in a way that was easy to understand. Scott was thorough and detail-oriented, which gave me confidence that nothing important was overlooked. He was also readily available whenever I had questions, making the process smooth and stress-free. He completed the review on time, which was critical for my transaction. Overall, I would highly recommend Scott to anyone in need of a reliable, responsive, and knowledgeable real estate lawyer."

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!

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?

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!

Settlement Agreement

Kansas

Asked on Dec 15, 2023

How does a settlement agreement affect future claims?

I recently entered into a settlement agreement with my former employer. The agreement requires me to release any and all claims I may have against them. I am concerned about how this agreement might affect my right to pursue any future claims I might have against them. I am seeking advice to understand how this agreement impacts my ability to pursue future claims.

Alan B.

Answered Dec 26, 2023

Your settlement could be limited to claims in the past. It’s effect on future claims will depend on: 1) the limiting language in the settlement agreement, and 2) the nature of the future claim (i.e., whether any part of the claim covered by settlement agreement language).

Demand Letter

Georgia

Asked on Sep 15, 2023

Demand letter before litigation?

I am considering sending a demand letter to a company that I believe has wrongfully taken money from me. I want to know if a demand letter is necessary before I can pursue litigation against them. I have already sent them a letter asking for the money back, but I haven't received a response. I am now considering taking legal action and want to know if a demand letter is necessary before I do so.

Gregory F.

Answered Oct 10, 2023

No, a demand letter is not necessary before filing suit, but a demand letter sent by an attorney can carry more weight and be more effective than one you send on your own. I suggest you consult with an experienced Georgia litigation attorney, such as myself, to discuss your specific situation before deciding on your next steps.

Contract Agreement

New York

Asked on Sep 7, 2021

How to determine jurisdiction for lawsuit?

I have a promissory note written in Montana that was breached. I am in New York. I am the borrower and my aunt is the lender; I have since discovered she wrote the note with unfair terms. I need the note voided. What do I do? I can’t find an attorney anywhere to take my case.

Donya G.

Answered Sep 14, 2021

Hello, The answer to your question will depend on what your contract has stated as the law that will govern your contract. Somewhere in your agreement should be the words "this contracts is governed by the law of _____". If your contract says Montana, then you will need a Montana attorney. If the contract says New York, then you will need a New York attorney
