Litigation Legal Questions and Answers

Litigation

Commercial Lease

Texas

Asked on Apr 14, 2023

What's the survival clause in a commercial lease?

I am looking to enter into a commercial lease for my new business. I am unfamiliar with the terms of a commercial lease, and am particularly interested in understanding the survival clause. This clause is important to me because I want to make sure I am fully aware of my rights and responsibilities as a tenant. I need to know what is expected of me should the lease be terminated prematurely.

Curt L.

Answered Apr 28, 2023

A survival clause is fairly standard in a lease. It extends the effectiveness of certain provisions, such as party representations, warranties, promises, and covenants beyond the expiration or termination of the lease, but not beyond the legally prescribed statute of limitations. For example, If you make a fraudulent representation in a 1-year lease, the other party to the lease who is damaged by your fraud could still sue you for that fraud even after the end of the 1-year lease.

Cease and Desist

New Jersey

Asked on Oct 20, 2021

My name is Ocaris and I was wondering what would be the cost to summons a few YouTube channels with a cease and desist letter?

Defamation of character and slander

Matthew S.

Answered Nov 2, 2021

To send a cease and desist letter to YouTube he’s an exercise in futility. They are exempt from lawsuit under federal law. The various content providers that they host is a different issue. Assuming that there are similar issues for the different providers the initial reason desist letter would cost $200. Each additional content provider would be $100.

C Corp

Ohio

Asked on May 28, 2023

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.

Answered Jun 23, 2023

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.

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?

Dolan W.

Answered Sep 17, 2024

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!

Demand Letter

Florida

Asked on Sep 17, 2023

Costs threatened in a demand letter?

I recently received a demand letter from a person that I had a disagreement with. The letter stated that if I did not take certain actions, they would take legal action against me. The letter also mentioned potential costs associated with this legal action. I am wondering what the potential costs could be and what I can do to protect myself from incurring them.

Linda W.

Answered Sep 27, 2023

The first question I would ask, is the nature of the dispute. Is it actionable? Does the person who sent the demand letter have any legal right to bring a lawsuit against you? Typically costs associated with a lawsuit are the filing fee and service of process/summons and possibly free judgment interest, depending on the alleged violation, if it is monetary.

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.
