Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Photography Usage Rights Agreement

Washington

Asked on Aug 23, 2024

Can a photographer include a clause in a license agreement that prohibits the client from editing or altering the photographs?

I recently hired a photographer to take some professional headshots for my business. The photographer sent me a license agreement that includes a clause stating that I am not allowed to edit or alter the photographs in any way without their express permission. While I understand the importance of protecting the photographer's work, I also want to have the flexibility to make minor adjustments or enhancements to the images for my specific business needs. I'm wondering if this clause is legally enforceable and if there are any potential repercussions if I were to make edits without seeking permission.

Merry K.

Answered Sep 3, 2024

When entering into any type of contract with anyone and about anything, one of the parties can include any terms they desire as long as the term is not illegal. If you signed the license agreement before the photographer completed the work for you, you will need to seek and obtain express permission to edit or alter the photographs. If, however, the photographer sent you the agreement after he or she completed the work, including sending you the photos, and you paying for it, the photographer can't make you sign a contract after the fact, and such terms would likely not be enforceable. If you signed the agreement before the work was done, and you alter the photos, the photographer could sue you for breach of contract, copyright violation, and perhaps a few other types of intellectual property claims. If you like the photographer's work, it's best to work out arrangements with him or her or the company, because you may want a good relationship with them going forward. Moreover, the photographer may have a better skillset in regards to editing the photos to meet your needs. Please note that I am not accepting new work until the end of October - I just wanted to answer your question; I'm turning down all offers of work at this time. I also do not engage in litigation any more.

Business Purchase Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 15, 2025

What are the key elements to include in a Business Purchase Agreement?

I am in the process of purchasing a small business and I am in need of legal advice regarding the essential components that should be included in a Business Purchase Agreement. The business has been operating for several years and has a stable customer base, but I want to ensure that all aspects of the purchase are properly addressed and legally protected. I would like to understand the necessary clauses, warranties, and conditions that should be included in the agreement to safeguard my interests and mitigate potential risks involved in the transaction.

Ralph S.

Answered Jul 25, 2025

Please post this as a project attorneys can bid on. It would be hard to give you a generalized answer without knowing the details and trying to piecemeal it can do more harm than good. But I would definitely think about what is being sold/when/ how. How is the payments made? What IP is included, when does ownership transfers, is there financing, are there any licenses required, any documents that need to be executed, any inspections, due diligence etc

Confidentiality Agreement

New Jersey

Asked on Mar 30, 2021

Do confidentiality agreements hold up in court?

I am being asked to sign one.

Ramsey T.

Answered Mar 30, 2021

Courts will uphold all agreements between parties provided they are validly made, even confidentiality agreements. So first you must ensure that the confidentiality agreement is a valid agreement. Once you have assured yourself of that, you need to look at what sort of "breach" you might want to claim if you are considering going to Court. The issue, in the event that you do go to Court, will be - what are the remedies that the Court will provide in order to remedy the "breach". Will the Court provide for "damages" or issue some sort of "injuncutory relief" or other sort of order that the breaching party will need to fulfill.

Employee Separation Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 19, 2023

Employee separation agreement and unemployment benefits?

I recently resigned from my job and my employer is asking me to sign a separation agreement. I am concerned that if I sign this agreement, I may not be able to collect unemployment benefits. I need to know if signing this agreement will affect my ability to receive unemployment benefits.

Diane D.

Answered Jul 28, 2023

The only way to answer your question is to have an attorney review the agreement. Not sure why it would stop you from collecting unemployment benefits, but, again, without seeing the agreement, there is no way to answer this question.

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.
