Litigation

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

Retainer Agreement

Maryland

Asked on Jul 5, 2022

either in a flat fee or with a retainer, do attorneys charge for wait time in court/travel time to and from?

Have a protective order hearing coming up. I have the option of using a lawyer with no retainer agreement, but a deposit and an hourly rate or one with a retainer deposit and an agreement. In either case, is wait time in court charged at the hourly rate?how about travel time?

Michael T.

Answered Jul 19, 2022

Generally speaking, we charge for all time spent on a file. If I'm away from my desk for your case, then I can't work on other cases. So, yes, a five-minute hearing in court might result in a two-hour bill, because that was two hours dedicated to your case. That's why lawyers like to schedule multiple cases for the same hearing: we can pro-rate the travel and waiting time over multiple cases. Flat fees do not normally get a charge for travel or waiting time, because that time is included in the flat fee. A lot of judges start their hearings by "calling the docket" (bringing up each case one by one) and getting time estimates; then calling the cases beginning with the shortest time estimates. Some judges leave all the cases without lawyers to the end. This results in (A) the people involved in cases without lawyers see how it's done; and (B) the lawyers spend less time sitting around waiting and go back to being productive.

Cost to get a cease and desist order.

Matthew S.

Answered Oct 29, 2021

The cost depends on exactly what you want. If you want a simple cease and desist letter, I would charge as quoted below. If you want steps beyond that, I may have to charge an hourly rate. $300/hr.

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.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
