Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Commercial Lease

New York

Asked on Apr 25, 2023

What's the entire agreement clause in a commercial lease?

I am a small business owner who recently signed a commercial lease for my business premises. I am concerned about the “entire agreement” clause in the lease, as I am not sure what it covers and what the implications are for me and my business. I am looking for clarification on the clause and any potential risks associated with it.

Matthew S.

Answered Apr 27, 2023

This is a contractual provision which aims to prevent the party relying on it from being liable for any statements or representations (including pre-contractual representations) except as expressly set out in the agreement. It generally precludes the introduction of parol evidence or evidences of other agreements that are not in writing.

Noncompete Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 30, 2023

Noncompete agreement and severance packages?

I recently left my job of 5 years, where I had signed a non-compete agreement. I am now negotiating a severance package with my former employer and am unsure of what my rights and obligations are regarding the non-compete agreement. I am seeking clarification on how the non-compete agreement should be handled in relation to the terms of my severance package.

Answered Sep 1, 2023

To be able to answer this question, I would need to see the agreements. No one can answer your question without seeing the agreements.

Contract Agreement

New York

Asked on Sep 7, 2021

How to determine jurisdiction for lawsuit?

I have a promissory note written in Montana that was breached. I am in New York. I am the borrower and my aunt is the lender; I have since discovered she wrote the note with unfair terms. I need the note voided. What do I do? I can’t find an attorney anywhere to take my case.

Ramsey T.

Answered Sep 14, 2021

Hi - what does the contract say? We are looking for the choice of law clause. If the contract provides for NY choice of law then fantastic! You hire an attorney in New York, send them a demand letter and file in a New York State Court - on the day after the expiration date for your letter. Once you get your judgment in New York, you hire a collections attorney in Montana to go collect your judgement (if they won't pay up - its amazing how much they are willing to pay when you get a local lawyer to put a lien on their house!) If the choice of law clause says Montana - you can (i) be certain and hire a lawyer in Montana and follow the same process or (ii) be aggressive, hire and file in New York, just to ensure that they have to hire a New York lawyer to get the case dismissed. The second situation would be if you think they would rather settle with you than pay someone in New York to get the case dismissed. There is a lot of strategy to consider - but the most important thing in any of this is to be decisive and move forward with a lawyer quickly once you decide on a course of action. I've seen clients who had stronger cases lose in the end because the other side was aggressive in Court and had their lawyer on a retainer immediately and filed before my client could finish "considering her options."

Independent Contractor Agreement

Washington

Asked on Nov 10, 2023

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.

Answered Dec 19, 2023

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.

Settlement Agreement

California

Asked on Dec 17, 2023

Can we renegotiate a settlement agreement?

I recently entered into a settlement agreement with the other party in a dispute, but now I believe that the terms of the agreement are no longer fair and equitable. As such, I am looking to renegotiate the agreement. I have attempted to discuss this with the other party, but they have not been receptive to the idea. I am now seeking legal advice to determine if there is any way to renegotiate the agreement and what the best course of action would be.

Joseph M.

Answered Jan 26, 2024

If you enter into a binding contract you have to honour the terms unless there was fraud, mistake or misrepresentation as a basis to set aside or renegotiate.
