Litigation Legal Questions and Answers
Litigation
C Corp
Ohio
C corp and indemnification?
I am the CEO of a small C Corp. Recently, my company has been sued by a customer for a breach of contract. I am concerned about the potential financial and legal implications of this lawsuit and want to understand the rules and regulations around C Corp and indemnification. In particular, I am interested in understanding how C Corp indemnification works and what I can do to protect myself and my company from liability.
Paul S.
Depending on the state where the company is incorporated, indemnification of directors and officers may be mandatory. In any case, indemnification only comes into play if this customer has named you personally as a defendant in the lawsuit. If the customer has done so, and you were acting in good faith within your role as a director or officer, the company should pay all your expenses in defending yourself, and any judgment against you if you lose. Of course, you should be hiring an attorney to defend the company (and you, if you are named) in this lawsuit. It's not a good DIY project.

Equipment Purchase Agreement
Texas
I need help and justice because the manufacturing company and the vendor company sold me a bad CT scan machine for 67000$ and the machine always stops in between patients and unpredictable and it’s still not working now - I have spent thousands of $$ on repairs and waranties - they are abusing me- I don’t want any other dentist to be abused like this - I need a lawyer with a good heart to help me who isnot money oriented
I need to ask them for refund of half the price of the machine or replace me with a machine which will not give me and my team any psychological stresses for next 5 years - if they don’t want to settle out then we need to go to court and they need to pay my lawyer fees and I won’t be responsible for any of their lawyer fees at any occasion as there will be no justice served - if They lobby and I end up losing more money- most lawyers are expensive and I don’t want to spend for their lawyer- also as I have been cheated with a broken and defective machine and they need to pay for Rejuveneation fees as this machine breakdown has caused me and my team psychological and patient issues too
Kelvin R.
You have raise serious concerns involving rights under both your transaction documents and Texas law related to your CT scan machine purchase and performance. Texas law protects buyers of goods under well-established warranty theories as well as provisions of the Business & Commerce Code (including prohibitions against deceptive trade practices). You likely have a purchase agreement, guaranty agreement and or a warranty agreement. These are the minimum documents you should review closely to determine if the seller's actions violate terms of any (or all) of these agreements. A good lawyer can help you with your review and analysis. While I think I know what your concern may be in your request for "lawyer with a good heart" who "is not money oriented", lawyers are like any other profession, some better then others, some good and some not as good and attorney fees vary. I suggest you locate one that you believe is ethical and who will aggressively pursue your interest. If so, you will likely find value in the services provided.

Demand Letter
Georgia
Can I draft my own demand letter?
I recently received a letter from a company that I have a dispute with. The letter was a demand for payment of a certain amount of money, and I am not sure if I should respond to the demand or not. I am considering writing a demand letter of my own in response, but I am not sure if I am legally allowed to do so and what the potential consequences could be.
Bobby H.
Although engaging a lawyer is preferred, there is generally no legal prohibition against a non- lawyer making his/her own demand or respoding to a demand provided you do not threaten violence or bodily harm or use any other language which may give rise to criminal liability. However, if the amount the claim is undisputed, and depending on the type of claim, there are provisions which allow a court to award the person making the claim his/her attorneys fees in addition to the amount of underlying claim if a demand is rejected under circumstances if the case goes to court. Thus, use of an attorney is again advised but generally not legally required.

Business Contract
New York
Can a business contract be terminated if one party fails to fulfill their obligations?
I run a small business and recently entered into a contract with a supplier for the purchase of raw materials. However, the supplier has consistently failed to deliver the agreed-upon quantities of materials on time, causing significant delays in our production process. This has resulted in financial losses for my business. I would like to know if I have the right to terminate the contract due to the supplier's breach of their obligations, and what steps I need to take to do so in a legally appropriate manner.
Danny J.
In general, a business contract can be terminated if one party fails to fulfill their obligations, which is known as a material breach of contract. However, the specifics depend on several factors: 1. Contract terms: The agreement may include specific provisions for termination in case of breach. 2. Materiality of the breach: The failure must be significant enough to undermine the contract's purpose. 3. Notice and cure periods: Some contracts require giving the breaching party notice and an opportunity to rectify the situation. 4. Documented evidence: It's crucial to have clear documentation of the breach and its impact on your business. 5. Legal requirements: Proper procedures must be followed to terminate the contract legally. The situation you've described - consistent failure to deliver agreed-upon quantities on time, causing significant delays and financial losses - could potentially constitute a material breach. However, determining whether you have the right to terminate and the appropriate steps to take requires a thorough review of: - The specific contract terms - The extent and impact of the supplier's failures - Any communications between you and the supplier regarding these issues - Applicable state and federal laws Given the complexity of contract law and the potential consequences of improperly terminating a contract, it would be advisable to consult with a legal professional. They can review your specific situation, assess the strength of your position, and guide you through the appropriate steps to protect your business interests.
