Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Contracts
Maintenance Services Agreement
New York
What are the key provisions that should be included in a Maintenance Services Agreement?
I am a small business owner who is in the process of hiring a maintenance services provider to handle the upkeep of my office space. I have been asked to draft a Maintenance Services Agreement to outline the terms and conditions of the arrangement, but I am unsure of what provisions are essential to include. I want to ensure that the agreement covers all necessary aspects, such as the scope of work, payment terms, liability and insurance, termination rights, and any other key considerations that may be relevant to protect my interests as the client and ensure a smooth working relationship with the maintenance services provider.
Damien B.
You are on the right track in identifying the key provisions: scope of work, payment terms, liability and insurance, and termination rights. Not all maintenance service agreements are exactly the same. Generally, what I do is look at a few of them. Then I speak with my client about the facts. Afterward, I draft the specific agreement for their purposes, including the appropriate provisions based on the client's specific needs.
Contracts
Letter of Intent
North Carolina
Can a Letter of Intent be legally binding?
I am in the process of negotiating a business deal with another party, and we have exchanged a series of letters of intent outlining our intentions and basic terms of the agreement. However, I have heard conflicting opinions on whether a letter of intent is legally binding or merely a preliminary document. I want to understand the legal implications of these letters and whether they can be enforced in case of a breach by either party.
Jeff G.
Yes, they can, depending on how they’re written. Generally speaking, a promise to enter into an agreement isn’t binding. But the problem with most Letters of Intent is that they can sometimes contain all of the essential elements of a contract: offer, consideration, demonstration of capacity, and contracting for something it’s legal to contract for. So how is a Letter of Intent NOT a contract? You have to remove one of the elements, usually the offer or consideration. It has to say that it’s not an offer, for example - that it’s a negotiation document. And 99/100, LoI’s don’t say that at all.
Contracts
Terms and Conditions
Florida
Why are terms and conditions long?
I am a small business owner who is in the process of creating a website for my business. I have been researching terms and conditions for websites, and I noticed that most of them are very long. I want to make sure that my terms and conditions are comprehensive to protect my business, but I am worried that if they are too long, customers may not read them. That is why I am asking why terms and conditions are so long.
Diane D.
Because every type of situation needs to be covered to protect you. That cannot be done in a paragraph or two.
Contracts
Severance Agreement
California
Can a severance agreement be digital?
I recently accepted a voluntary severance package from my employer and have been asked to sign a severance agreement. I am curious if this agreement can be signed digitally, as I am not currently in the same city as my employer. I am looking for advice on the legalities of digital agreements and any potential risks associated with signing a severance agreement digitally.
Christina M.
In 1999 the California Legislature enacted the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (the “UETA”), Civ. Code, §§ 1633.1 et seq., which provides that when a law requires a record to be in writing or requires a signature, an electronic record or signature satisfies the law. The law requires that any contract entered into between two parties may not be denied legal enforceability simply because of the use of an electronic signature. This has also be upheld in the employment law setting in some case law.
Contracts
Severance Agreement
North Carolina
Severance agreement and confidentiality of terms?
I recently left my job of five years and was offered a severance agreement. I am now concerned about the confidentiality of the terms of the agreement, as I am worried that the terms of the agreement could be shared with other potential employers. I am seeking legal advice to understand my rights and obligations regarding the confidentiality of the severance agreement.
Shelia H.
In most cases, a severance agreement will have a confidentiality provision included. However, even if there is a confidentiality agreement, there are some instances where that confidentiality may be broken. For instance, in the case of a court order requesting the release of information or a government agency, such as the IRS or the state taxing or unemployment office, an employer may have to release information. There are also laws that prohibit the release of certain private information. In your case, it sounds as if your employer didn't include a confidentiality provision in the severance agreement, and for contracts, the general rule is that if a provision isn't included in the contract, it's not included in the contract. That being said, you may want to contact the employer and ask what the employer's policy is regarding the release of information to potential employers that you may be seeking to work with. There are also two laws that you may want to consider speaking to a NC-licensed attorney about. They are the following: 1.§ 1-539.12. Immunity from civil liability for employers disclosing information. "(a) An employer who discloses information about a current or former employee's job history or job performance to a prospective employer of the current or former employee upon request of the prospective employer or upon request of the current or former employee is immune from civil liability and is not liable in civil damages for the disclosure or any consequences of the disclosure." 2. § 14-355. Blacklisting employees. "If any person, agent, company or corporation, after having discharged any employee from his or its service, shall prevent or attempt to prevent, by word or writing of any kind, such discharged employee from obtaining employment with any other person, company or corporation, such person, agent or corporation shall be guilty of a Class 3 misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500.00); and such person, agent, company or corporation shall be liable in penal damages to such discharged person, to be recovered by civil action.
