Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Contracts
Investment Advisory Contract
North Carolina
Can an investment advisor change the terms of an advisory contract without the client's consent?
I recently entered into an investment advisory contract with a financial advisor to manage my portfolio. However, I received a notice from the advisor stating that they will be making changes to the terms of the contract, including an increase in their fees and additional services that were not initially agreed upon. I am concerned about these changes as they were made without my consent and I would like to know if the advisor has the right to unilaterally modify the terms of the contract without my agreement.
Jeff G.
If the original agreement allowed for the advisor to make these changes unilaterally (without your input/consent) and/or on some predefined periodic basis, then yes, they can. However, if the agreement is silent about changes to the terms of your relationship, or is otherwise restrictive about how/when changes can happen, then no, they can't simply decide to change the terms. The next thing you'll want to evaluate is the termination language of your agreement and see if and how much notice is required for either of you to end the relationship. It's sometimes the case that the change notification you received is really an attempt to get you to terminate the agreement when they don't have the power to do so. But you'd need someone to review the agreement for you to provide competent advice.
Contracts
Restricted Stock Agreement
North Carolina
Can you explain the terms and conditions of a Restricted Stock Agreement?
I recently started a new job at a tech company, and as part of my compensation package, I was granted restricted stock units (RSUs). I received a Restricted Stock Agreement document outlining the terms and conditions of the RSUs, but I'm having trouble understanding some of the legal language and implications. I want to ensure that I fully understand the agreement before I sign it, so I'm seeking clarification on the specific terms and conditions, such as the vesting schedule, tax implications, and any restrictions on selling or transferring the RSUs.
Jeff G.
While there are many standard terms in a RSA, each one can be drafted uniquely. As such, while a competent attorney can review your agreement and explain the terms in plain english, it would be impossible for any of us to answer your questions without a detailed look at the document itself.
Contracts
Waiver And Release
Maryland
Is a Release and Waiver Agreement legally binding if signed by a minor?
I recently organized a sports event for children, and in order for them to participate, their parents were required to sign a Release and Waiver Agreement. However, one of the participants was a minor who signed the agreement without parental consent. I am now concerned about the legal enforceability of the agreement and whether it can hold the minor accountable in case of any injury or liability.
Randy M.
A Release and Waiver Agreement signed solely by a minor is generally not enforceable. Minors, typically defined as under 18 in most jurisdictions, lack contractual capacity. This means they cannot be held to most agreements because the law recognizes that children often lack the maturity to understand the consequences of binding legal commitments. Any contract they sign is voidable at their option, which means the minor can disaffirm it while still underage or for a reasonable period after reaching adulthood. Why a Minor’s Signature Alone Is Not Enough In your situation, the child signed the waiver without a parent or guardian. That creates several legal problems. First, there is no valid contract formation because the minor has no legal capacity to bind themselves. Second, even if you treated the waiver as effective, the minor could disaffirm it at any time, leaving you without protection. Third, courts are particularly wary of liability waivers for children’s activities. Public policy favors protecting minors, so judges are reluctant to allow event organizers to shield themselves from responsibility based solely on a document signed by a child. The Role of Parental Consent If a waiver is going to have any chance of being upheld, it must be signed by a parent or legal guardian. Even then, the law is not uniform. Some states permit parental waivers for recreational or voluntary activities if the terms are clear and unambiguous, while other states reject them outright as a matter of public policy. For example, California courts have enforced parental waivers in youth sports programs, while courts in New Jersey and Illinois have refused to enforce them. A properly drafted waiver should name the child, clearly spell out the risks, and show that the parent understands and accepts those risks. Implications for Your Event Since the waiver in question was signed only by the minor, it provides no meaningful protection. If the child were injured, the parents could still bring claims for medical expenses, pain and suffering, or other damages. Your organization would have no defense based on the waiver. Even if a parent had signed, the enforceability would still depend on your state’s laws and whether the waiver language met local requirements. Best Practices Going Forward For future events, you should require that every participant under 18 has a waiver signed by a parent or legal guardian. Make sure the agreement identifies both the child and the signing adult, and ensure the waiver language is easy to read and unambiguous. In addition, review your liability insurance coverage with your carrier. Insurance is your strongest line of defense because even enforceable waivers can be challenged, and litigation costs can be significant. Finally, you may want to have your waiver reviewed by a lawyer familiar with the specific state laws governing youth sports and recreational programs, as enforceability can differ dramatically from one jurisdiction to another. On Contracts Counsel, you can connect with an experienced contract attorney who can review your waiver and advise you on the best way to protect your organization

Business Contract
North Carolina
Business contract with a termination fee?
I am currently in the process of starting a business and I have been presented with a contract that includes a termination fee. I am not sure what obligations I have with respect to this fee and I would like to know what kind of legal implications I may be subject to in the event of a termination. I am also interested in exploring the potential for negotiation of this fee in order to ensure that I am not overpaying for services that I may no longer need.
N'kia N.
A termination fee is a payment that one party to a contract pays the other party for terminating the contract before it expires. The general purpose is to compensate the non-terminating party for resources used and/or opportunities missed as a result of entering into the contract that is then terminated early. A well-written termination fee clause will typically include the exact fee to be paid or, if not exact, a clear explanation of how the fee is to be calculated. Additionally, it will include a timeline for the payment(s). Unless the terms of the contract are otherwise contrary to law, the terminating party is presumed to be responsible for paying the stated sum at the stated time. While it is common for a business contract to contain a termination fee clause, a termination fee that is unreasonable under the circumstances is at risk of not being enforceable. However, disputing a termination fee clause can require a lot of the parties' time and money. Before signing a contract with a termination fee clause, all of the parties should be sure that they understand and agree with the clause. If you are considering signing a contract with a termination fee clause, you might have an attorney review it before you sign it. The attorney might even be able to assist you with negotiating changes, if needed or helpful.
