Contracts
Adhesion Contract
Minnesota
Can I got a nonrefundable deposited back if no contract was signed?
I scheduled a free photography session with this girl. She said she needed $200 in advance that will go towards a package I'll buy when the photos are done. I decided the next day after looking how expensive her packages are that I couldn't afford it. I never signed the contract she sent me but she will not give me the $200 back. Can I get this money back? Am I in the wrong or is she?

Independent Contractor Agreement
Washington
How detailed should the contractor agreement be?
I am a small business owner and I am looking to hire an independent contractor to work with my business. I want to ensure that the independent contractor agreement is thorough and legally binding, but I am not sure how detailed it needs to be. I want to make sure that all the relevant terms and conditions are included in the agreement to protect both parties.
Merry A.
The agreement should be as detailed as possible, including details on how to dissolve the contract for various reasons. The scope of work should be included - if it's likely to change once in a while, include that as an addendum and note that it will change from time to time. Whenever it's going to change, execute a new addendum that both parties sign and date. It is your job to protect yourself, not the independent contractor - write the contract so that it strongly favors you; if the independent contractor wants to change it before signing, that is a question of negotiation.

Noncompete Agreement
Florida
Noncompete agreement choice of law?
I recently accepted a job offer with a new employer and they sent me a Noncompete Agreement to sign. I have some questions about the agreement, specifically related to the choice of law. My former employer and I are in different states, and I want to make sure I understand the implications of the agreement before signing.
Venus C.
Congratulations on your new job. Generally, a choice of law clause contained in a non-compete agreement indicates which state law will govern the contract. By way of general example, let's pretend we have a non-compete agreement that states the choice of law is Florida. Let's also pretend the parties to this agreement had a dispute and one party filed a lawsuit against the other in the state of New York. In this pretend scenario, because the parties agreed Florida to be their choice of law for the non-compete agreement, the court in New York would abide by that contractual agreement and apply Florida law. While choice of law clauses are commonly used to indicate what law will apply to a contract, the language used or omitted plays a significant role in their interpretation and enforceability.

Demand Letter
Arizona
Could you please provide a quotation of your service of drafting this demand letter?
I am representing a group of people, who need an attorney’s help to write a Demand Letter of Payment to the Arizona Court. We wired money to the bank accounts of three companies in 2020 for investment purpose and so far, the investment contracts have not been signed and sent back to us by these 3 companies. We have been seeking refund from these 3 companies for several months. Currently, these 3 companies are having a lawsuit with another company A and demanding payment from company A. As such, we would love to state our legal claim to the court, which makes a demand of the refund of our payments to these 3 companies. Could you please provide a quotation of your service of drafting this demand letter?

Employee Separation Agreement
California
Pros & cons of employee separation agreements?
I am a small business owner and I am considering offering an Employee Separation Agreement to an employee who is leaving the company. I want to understand the pros and cons of this type of agreement so that I can make the best decision for my business.
Gagandeep K.
There are several reasons for using an employee separation agreement - it can be used to protect confidential information and IP, obtain general liability waiver for certain legal claims (e.g., wrongful termination), offer an employee certain benefits and severance pay, and include additional provisions (e.g., non-disparagement clause so the employee cannot spread negative information about the company, return of company equipment, etc.). Just as an employer is not legally required to offer a severance agreement, an employee is not required by law to sign a severance agreement. However, an employee may be more likely to sign a reasonable, balanced severance agreement.

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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
