Litigation
C Corp
Ohio
C corp and indemnification?
I am the CEO of a small C Corp. Recently, my company has been sued by a customer for a breach of contract. I am concerned about the potential financial and legal implications of this lawsuit and want to understand the rules and regulations around C Corp and indemnification. In particular, I am interested in understanding how C Corp indemnification works and what I can do to protect myself and my company from liability.
Paul S.
Depending on the state where the company is incorporated, indemnification of directors and officers may be mandatory. In any case, indemnification only comes into play if this customer has named you personally as a defendant in the lawsuit. If the customer has done so, and you were acting in good faith within your role as a director or officer, the company should pay all your expenses in defending yourself, and any judgment against you if you lose. Of course, you should be hiring an attorney to defend the company (and you, if you are named) in this lawsuit. It's not a good DIY project.
Litigation
Demand Letter
Florida
Costs threatened in a demand letter?
I recently received a demand letter from a person that I had a disagreement with. The letter stated that if I did not take certain actions, they would take legal action against me. The letter also mentioned potential costs associated with this legal action. I am wondering what the potential costs could be and what I can do to protect myself from incurring them.
Linda W.
The first question I would ask, is the nature of the dispute. Is it actionable? Does the person who sent the demand letter have any legal right to bring a lawsuit against you? Typically costs associated with a lawsuit are the filing fee and service of process/summons and possibly free judgment interest, depending on the alleged violation, if it is monetary.
Litigation
Commercial Lease
Texas
What's the survival clause in a commercial lease?
I am looking to enter into a commercial lease for my new business. I am unfamiliar with the terms of a commercial lease, and am particularly interested in understanding the survival clause. This clause is important to me because I want to make sure I am fully aware of my rights and responsibilities as a tenant. I need to know what is expected of me should the lease be terminated prematurely.
Curt L.
A survival clause is fairly standard in a lease. It extends the effectiveness of certain provisions, such as party representations, warranties, promises, and covenants beyond the expiration or termination of the lease, but not beyond the legally prescribed statute of limitations. For example, If you make a fraudulent representation in a 1-year lease, the other party to the lease who is damaged by your fraud could still sue you for that fraud even after the end of the 1-year lease.
Litigation
Employment Contract
Texas
What's the termination clause in an employment contract?
I recently accepted a position at a company and they have given me an employment contract to review. I have been reading through the contract and noticed a section regarding termination. However, I am not sure what the termination clause in the contract states and I am hoping to get some clarification from a lawyer. I want to make sure that I understand my rights and obligations before signing the contract.
Curt L.
Most employment contracts contain (1) termination for cause, and/or (2) termination without cause (also known as at-will employment relationship).
Litigation
Cease and Desist
New Jersey
My name is Ocaris and I was wondering what would be the cost to summons a few YouTube channels with a cease and desist letter?
Defamation of character and slander
Matthew S.
To send a cease and desist letter to YouTube he’s an exercise in futility. They are exempt from lawsuit under federal law. The various content providers that they host is a different issue. Assuming that there are similar issues for the different providers the initial reason desist letter would cost $200. Each additional content provider would be $100.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
