Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Contracts
Master Service Agreement
Texas
What should be included in my master services agreement?
I am a small business owner who is in the process of entering into a Master Service Agreement with an outside party. I am looking for guidance on what should be included in the agreement in order to ensure that my interests are protected and that all parties involved are aware of their rights and responsibilities. I am seeking legal advice on this matter to ensure that the agreement is comprehensive and legally binding.
Kathryn K.
The critical terms for an MSA will vary widely depending on your industry and the nature of the transaction. Generally speaking, MSAs should include terms addressing: term, termination, structure of the transaction (i.e., are multiple SOWs contemplated), intellectual property ownership, limitations on liability, indemnification, warranties, timing and payment terms, and confidentiality. Those are what I would call the material terms that are critical to setting the expectations of the parties, protecting your interests, and most likely to come up in the event of a dispute. There are myriad other issues that are slightly less important but still need to be addressed, including everything from dispute resolution to assignment to independent contractor status. Depending on your industry, you may need highly detailed sections on data protection and service levels, or not need any language on those issues whatsoever. I highly recommend you consult with an attorney who has experience in drafting MSAs and can prepare a template for you to use for this transaction and all similar deals moving forward. Please note this is not legal advice and this message does not create an attorney-client relationship; I do, however, have extensive experience in commercial contracts and would be happy to assist.

Business Contract
Florida
How to get out of a business contract?
I want to get out of a contract with our main vendor and have been reading the contract but it doesn't say much. I believe this is in the termination clause based on research, but it doesn't specifically say what I need to do. Any advice?
Donya G.
A contract generally has termination terms; that would be the way to get out. If there are no terms, then the best thing to do is negotiate with the party on an exit strategy that is agreeable to both parties. As a contracts attorney that specializes in contracts and contracts disputes, I would be happy to assist. You can connect with me on the website or through my profile page - Donya Gordon Donya

Terms and Conditions
Florida
Why are terms and conditions long?
I am a small business owner who is in the process of creating a website for my business. I have been researching terms and conditions for websites, and I noticed that most of them are very long. I want to make sure that my terms and conditions are comprehensive to protect my business, but I am worried that if they are too long, customers may not read them. That is why I am asking why terms and conditions are so long.
Diane D.
Because every type of situation needs to be covered to protect you. That cannot be done in a paragraph or two.

Florida
Are vague terms and conditions valid?
I recently signed a contract with a company that included terms and conditions. Many of the terms were vague and I'm concerned that they may not be valid. I'm worried that this could put me in a vulnerable position and I want to make sure that I understand my rights and obligations before proceeding.
Diane D.
Yes, vague terms and conditions are valid. If you would like for me to review the contract for you before you sign to let you know what you will be or not be liable for, please contact me at ddowns@dmdlawpa.com

Product Licensing Agreement
Arizona
Can a product licensing agreement be terminated if the licensee fails to meet quality standards?
I am a small business owner who recently entered into a product licensing agreement with a larger company to manufacture and sell their branded products. However, I have noticed that the quality of the products being supplied by the licensee is significantly below the agreed-upon standards, which is affecting my reputation and sales. I would like to know if I have the right to terminate the licensing agreement due to the licensee's failure to meet quality standards, and what steps I should take to protect my business interests in this situation.
Randy M.
Yes, a licensing agreement can usually be terminated when the licensee fails to meet required quality standards, but whether you can do so depends on the language of your contract and how you handle the termination process. Courts enforce termination rights strictly, and you’ll need to show the breach is material rather than minor. Why Quality Failures Can Be a Material Breach Licensing agreements are built on protecting a brand. If the licensee’s products don’t meet agreed standards, that failure strikes at the heart of the deal. Poor quality undermines reputation, erodes consumer trust, and damages the goodwill the licensor has worked to build. Because of this, most agreements treat failure to meet quality standards as a material breach that allows the licensor to terminate if the breach isn’t corrected. Reviewing Your Agreement The first step is to examine the actual contract. Focus on provisions that describe: • Quality control obligations: These may reference specific product specifications, quality manuals, or compliance with industry standards. • Termination rights: Look for “for cause” termination language, which often lists quality failures as a trigger. • Notice and cure requirements: Many agreements require that you notify the licensee of the breach and give them a period (commonly 30 to 60 days) to correct it. • Dispute resolution procedures: Some contracts require mediation or arbitration before termination. You’ll need to comply with these provisions precisely. If you don’t, you risk a wrongful termination claim. Building the Record The burden will be on you to show the breach is real and significant. Documentation is key: • Collect product samples, photos, and inspection results that demonstrate the defects. • Keep a record of customer complaints, returns, or negative reviews linked to quality. • Maintain internal notes or reports from employees who’ve identified problems. • Save communications with the licensee where quality concerns were raised. If the licensee disputes termination, this evidence will support your position that the breach was material. Notice of Breach If the contract requires a cure period, you must send a written breach notice. That notice should: • Cite the contract provisions that have been violated. • Describe the quality issues in detail. • Attach or reference supporting evidence if possible. • Specify the time period for cure as outlined in the contract. • Make clear that failure to cure within that time will result in termination. The notice should be sent in the form specified in the contract, for example by certified mail or overnight courier. Termination if the Breach Isn’t Cured If the licensee fails to resolve the problems within the cure period, you may proceed with termination. The termination notice should: • State clearly that the agreement is being terminated under the relevant clause. • Identify the uncured quality failures as the reason. • Provide the effective termination date. • Remind the licensee of post-termination obligations, such as ceasing production and sales of your branded products. Protecting Your Interests After Termination If the licensee continues to sell after termination, you may need to seek an injunction to stop them. If you’ve lost sales or suffered reputational harm, you can consider pursuing damages. At the same time, you’ll want to secure a new licensee or manufacturing partner to maintain supply and protect your brand. In some cases, a carefully managed public statement can help maintain customer confidence. Limitations and Risks Not every defect will justify termination. Courts distinguish between minor issues and breaches that are serious enough to go to the root of the contract. Delay in taking action can also be seen as waiving the right to terminate for those particular breaches. Because wrongful termination can expose you to counterclaims, it’s best to have an attorney review your contract and prepare the necessary notices. Through Contracts Counsel, you can quickly connect with experienced contract attorneys who understand licensing disputes and can guide you through the process with confidence.
