Legal services cost too much, and are often of low quality. I have devoted my law practice to providing the best work at the most affordable price—in everything from defending small businesses against patent trolls to advising multinational corporations on regulatory compliance to steering couples through a divorce.

Venue Rental Agreement

New York

Asked on Dec 31, 2024

Can the venue owner change the terms of a rental agreement after it has been signed?

I recently signed a venue rental agreement to host an event at a popular event space in town. The agreement clearly stated the rental fee, duration, and other terms. However, a few days later, the venue owner contacted me and informed me that they had made changes to the agreement and that I would now be responsible for additional fees and restrictions. I'm wondering if the venue owner has the right to change the terms of the rental agreement after it has been signed, and if not, what actions can I take to ensure that the original terms are honored?

Damien B.

Answered Dec 31, 2024

Generally, neither party can unilaterally change or modify the terms of an agreement once both parties sign it. The only way is if a contract provision states that one party can modify the terms of the agreement without the consent of the other party. You would want to review the agreement to verify exactly what it says. If there is no provision that a party can unilaterally change the agreement or certain terms of the agreement, then there could be a possible claim for breach of contract if one of the parties refuses to honor it as it is written. An option is to file a lawsuit now to have a judge declare that the other party must abide by the terms of the agreement as is.

Contract Agreement

Utah

Asked on Jul 29, 2021

Should I sign a contract if I don't understand what it is saying?

Has a contract with someone where if we disagreed we would go to mediation. They refused to go, they offered us a settlement as long as we signed another contract. I don't understand fully what it is saying.

Donya G.

Answered Oct 5, 2021

Absolutely NOT. You never sign ANYTHING you do not understand because when you sign, you become bound to those terms whether you understood them or not or whether you agree with them or not. Should you later have a disagreement on the contract you signed, the court, or arbitrator will see your signature on the document as a sign that you read, understood and agreed to the terms. You will need to hire an attorney to review the initial agreement to see if they can refuse mediation as well as to look at the new contract and let you know what it says and whether you should sign it or not. I am a contracts attorney and if you you would like my services, you can contact me on the contracts counsel website.

Software Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 12, 2023

Software agreement and dispute escalation?

I am a software developer who recently entered into a software agreement with a client. We have been having some disputes regarding the agreement, but we have been unable to come to a satisfactory resolution. I am now looking for advice on how to best resolve the dispute and how to protect my rights under the software agreement.

Daniel D.

Answered Jul 18, 2023

The first step to resolving a dispute is to look at what the software agreement says. The agreement may have terms or conditions in there that discuss what happens when there is a dispute. Without seeing the agreement it is difficult to say what you could do to best protect your rights and resolve the dispute.

Contractual Agreement

Florida

Asked on Aug 17, 2021

I am being harassed by a vendor for the balance due for product that i have not received yet. Can i take them to court?

After receiving the incorrect product, the vendor presented me with a fake contract with my signature copy pasted on it to tell me I i agreed on the replacement product for my order. They claim they had a second meeting with me and this new contract was signed but that never happened.

Donya G.

Answered Oct 12, 2021

I would suggest hiring an attorney in your jurisdiction to send a cease and desist letter to the vendor or have them simply call the vendor nd tell them to stop harassing you. For a cease and desist to have the effect that matters, it should be from a licensed attorney in that state who can file any case in court if the matter is not addressed or continues to happen. I am an attorney licensed in New York and Connecticut. There are numerous attorneys on this website from other states. If you would like me to assist, please contact me through the site or post your jobs for another attorney. All the best Donya Gordon
