Arbitration Agreement
Oregon
Does the documents and photos I have enough to go to Arbitration
Contractor didn't do all the jobs he was hired to do and what he did do is unacceptable. For example, the Trex deck he built was improperly installed according to the Trex company and another Contractor. It will need to removed and replaced with the proper material/tools and measurements. Currently it is unsafe.
Donya G.
As an Arbitrator and someone who helps clients during their arbitration, I have learned that your evidence is critical to the success or failure of your case. So it is important to have as much evidence as possible and to notarize things you believe the other side would contest as not being real, true or authentic. If you need further assistance, you can contact me directly through contracts counsel. Donya Gordon

Settlement Agreement
New Jersey
How to I get paid from this settlement without having to spend thousands on an attorney
Hello. Through legal help, I have a signed agreement with the other side to pay me $6500 in the settlement, after the other side did not deliver the product i signed on or. Before the attorneys got involved, I wrote a bad review about the 'others sides' business and posted it on the USREVIEW website. In the settlement agreement, i agreed to delete that post (review) however, i cannot. The 'other side' has the ability to have the review deleted, but he refuses to do so, using a stalling tactic not to pay me the settlement. The other side is in the UK. I have already wasted a lot of money on a lawyer from the U.S, he did not help much. I am now working with a lawyer in the UK, however, she is not sure that i will collect, even if we go to trial and win. Do i give up on this settlement, or is there another way to collect on the settlement without having to waste thousands of dollars?
Donya G.
Hello, It depends. Is your settlement court approved? Did you go to court and the court approved it or was it drafted by attorneys only? If it is not court approved, you can seek to have it approved by the court, however, you would need to be able to serve the person who is in the UK. Do they have a US address? will their lawyer accept service? Do they have property in the US? If yes, then you can sue in small claims court in NJ but only for $3,000.00, which is the limit but it is a process you can do by yourself with guidance. Otherwise if you want to sue for the full $6,500.00 your case should be filed in the regular Special Civil Part. Does the party have assets here in the US? you might want to hire an investigator (cheaper than an attorney) to locate any assets. If they do, then with your approved court settlement, you can attach the property or file a lien to get your money back. If you need further assistance, you can contact me on the website for assistance with my services. All the best Donya Gordon

Contract Agreement
Illinois
What is my best path to recover a down payment paid to a contractor who never started my job and has gone MIA while I've been trying to cordially recover my money. Demand Letter via certified mail etc..?
I signed a contract with a contractor to update my home. I signed the contract and paid a $5k deposit (the contract has zero verbiage related to a deposit) to 'get on his list'. After several months and failed attempts to get a specific start date I informed the contractor I was not going to move forward with the project. He said he would pay the deposit back but asked for me to accept $1000 / month. He paid $1000 back however has gone MIA since and is not returning any calls or texts.
Jane C.
I suggest you have an attorney send a demand letter. If that fails, you can bring you claim against the contractor to small claims court.

Contract Agreement
Utah
Should I sign a contract if I don't understand what it is saying?
Has a contract with someone where if we disagreed we would go to mediation. They refused to go, they offered us a settlement as long as we signed another contract. I don't understand fully what it is saying.
Donya G.
Absolutely NOT. You never sign ANYTHING you do not understand because when you sign, you become bound to those terms whether you understood them or not or whether you agree with them or not. Should you later have a disagreement on the contract you signed, the court, or arbitrator will see your signature on the document as a sign that you read, understood and agreed to the terms. You will need to hire an attorney to review the initial agreement to see if they can refuse mediation as well as to look at the new contract and let you know what it says and whether you should sign it or not. I am a contracts attorney and if you you would like my services, you can contact me on the contracts counsel website.

Cease and Desist
Illinois
Cease and Desist Letter Request
Good morning, My question is in regards to writing a Cease and Desist letter. Background information: In 2019, I was left with a bill of approximately $6,000 for a friends Bridal Shower & Wedding related expenses. These expenses were agreed upon by the bridal party to be split between 5 people. On Friday, December 24, upon request from the family of the bride, promises were made to refund the money. On Monday, December 27, the family disputed the fees stating they were not obligated to pay the expenses. I, unfortunately, don't have anything in writing to show that the bridal party agreed to pay as the messages via Instagram were deleted. The bridal party and I had a falling out after the wedding as I was upset that the original agreement wasn't upheld. Since then, the bride has made false allegations about me and made up several stories about me to others to try to deflect from the actual issue. Today: I don't believe I have a leg to stand on regarding the money, however, on Monday, December 27, I, myself, and my mother received harassing phone calls from the family and bridal party with threats and false allegations. I would like to request a Cease and Desist letter, or another form of legal letter to address the harassment and demand that lies about me are no longer told. If there is another route that may be more appropriate, I appreciate any advice. Thank you.
T. Phillip B.
You could use a cease and desist letter which states you will pursue your other legal remedies if they fail to stop. You shouldn't have much of an issue trying to prove the harassment as it has happened to you and if it continues. For the lies being told, you will need to have proof which means those she told will have to testify. If you have damages, you'll have to allege those too with some sort of proof.

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.
