Contracts
Agreement And Release
North Carolina
We signed a contract with a travel baseball team and in the middle of a game the coach lost it and started cussing in front of my son. Is that a breach of contract?
This is what we initialed. NCBA Team Players will carry themselves and conduct themselves with the highest degree of integrity and class. We expect to set the standard for sportsmanship, respect of the game, respect of our opponents, respect for the umpires and everyone that allows us to play this great game. Our appearance will be professional and our manners will reflect our character. Language not conducive to these standards will not be tolerated. These simple rules allow you to represent your family name, the game of baseball and the NCBA at all times with class on and off the field of play
Richard G.
That clause addresses the NCBA Team Players' conduct. I would need to see the entire agreement to know what the coach's obligations are, if any.
Contracts
Service Level Agreement
North Carolina
Can a company be held liable for not meeting the service level agreement outlined in a contract?
I recently entered into a contract with a software development company to build a custom application for my business. The contract included a service level agreement (SLA) that outlined specific performance metrics and guarantees for the software. However, since the project started, the company has consistently failed to meet these performance metrics, causing significant delays and impacting the functionality of the application. I want to understand if the company can be held legally liable for not meeting the SLA and if I have any recourse to seek compensation or terminate the contract due to their failure to meet the agreed-upon terms.
Jeff G.
Yes. A SLA in a written contract is part of that contract. And even without a specifically-stated remedy, you may be able to sue for breach. It's not all cut-and-dried, however, as there can be a multitude of other contractual limitations or considerations that would need to be considered after a thorough review of the agreement, the documentation of the work that's been done and any type of waivers provided for missing the SLAs.
Contracts
Event Space Rental Agreement
North Carolina
Is it legal for an event space rental agreement to require the renter to pay for any damages caused by their guests?
I am currently in the process of renting an event space for a private gathering, and the rental agreement provided by the venue includes a clause stating that I, as the renter, will be held responsible for any damages caused by my guests during the event. I am concerned about the legality of this provision and whether it is enforceable. I want to ensure that I am not unfairly burdened with the financial responsibility for any potential damages caused by my guests.
Jeff G.
Hi. Yes, it is both common and legal for an event space owner to hold a renter liable for damages caused to the space by the renter's guests. If you are concerned about your guests causing damage, it would be prudent to remove such guests from your invite list. Otherwise, you can always purchase event insurance to cover you in the event of some liability.
Contracts
Severance Agreement
North Carolina
Severance agreement and confidentiality of terms?
I recently left my job of five years and was offered a severance agreement. I am now concerned about the confidentiality of the terms of the agreement, as I am worried that the terms of the agreement could be shared with other potential employers. I am seeking legal advice to understand my rights and obligations regarding the confidentiality of the severance agreement.
Shelia H.
In most cases, a severance agreement will have a confidentiality provision included. However, even if there is a confidentiality agreement, there are some instances where that confidentiality may be broken. For instance, in the case of a court order requesting the release of information or a government agency, such as the IRS or the state taxing or unemployment office, an employer may have to release information. There are also laws that prohibit the release of certain private information. In your case, it sounds as if your employer didn't include a confidentiality provision in the severance agreement, and for contracts, the general rule is that if a provision isn't included in the contract, it's not included in the contract. That being said, you may want to contact the employer and ask what the employer's policy is regarding the release of information to potential employers that you may be seeking to work with. There are also two laws that you may want to consider speaking to a NC-licensed attorney about. They are the following: 1.§ 1-539.12. Immunity from civil liability for employers disclosing information. "(a) An employer who discloses information about a current or former employee's job history or job performance to a prospective employer of the current or former employee upon request of the prospective employer or upon request of the current or former employee is immune from civil liability and is not liable in civil damages for the disclosure or any consequences of the disclosure." 2. § 14-355. Blacklisting employees. "If any person, agent, company or corporation, after having discharged any employee from his or its service, shall prevent or attempt to prevent, by word or writing of any kind, such discharged employee from obtaining employment with any other person, company or corporation, such person, agent or corporation shall be guilty of a Class 3 misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine not exceeding five hundred dollars ($500.00); and such person, agent, company or corporation shall be liable in penal damages to such discharged person, to be recovered by civil action.

Business Contracts
Independent Contractor Agreement
North Carolina
Are templates for independent contractor agreements okay?
I am an independent contractor and am currently in the process of negotiating a new agreement with a client. I am trying to understand the implications of using a template agreement, as opposed to having an agreement written specifically for our situation. I want to ensure that I am protecting my interests and that the agreement is legally binding.
N'kia N.
Contract templates tend to follow the "Goldilocks principle." 1. The first template is too generic, so it won't likely protect many user-specific interests. 2. The second template is too specific, so it won't likely protect the interests of users outside of a specific category. 3. The third template is just right, so it is most likely to protect a specific party's legal interests. However, this template is one that an attorney created after having the opportunity to understand that party's goals and preferences. If a template was not created (or at least revised by an attorney) specifically for you, it might be best to think of it as a point of origin rather than a final product to be used as-is. Also, the independent contractor relationship is a widely misunderstood legal concept. But it is important for an independent contractor to understand how to leverage the nature of the relationship to negotiate favorable contract terms. An attorney can review, revise, negotiate, or write a contract, including an independent contractor agreement. Consult with a North Carolina attorney who is knowledgeable about independent contractor relationships and able to tailor your independent contractor agreement to your specific needs.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
