I am a small business owner in the food industry and I am considering entering into a contract manufacturing agreement with a larger company to produce my product on a larger scale.

I want to ensure that the agreement protects my interests and outlines the responsibilities and obligations of both parties clearly. I am seeking advice from a lawyer who specializes in contract law to help me navigate this process and draft a comprehensive agreement.

Contracts
Letter of Intent
North Carolina
Can a Letter of Intent be legally binding?
I am in the process of negotiating a business deal with another party, and we have exchanged a series of letters of intent outlining our intentions and basic terms of the agreement. However, I have heard conflicting opinions on whether a letter of intent is legally binding or merely a preliminary document. I want to understand the legal implications of these letters and whether they can be enforced in case of a breach by either party.
Jeff G.
Yes, they can, depending on how they’re written. Generally speaking, a promise to enter into an agreement isn’t binding. But the problem with most Letters of Intent is that they can sometimes contain all of the essential elements of a contract: offer, consideration, demonstration of capacity, and contracting for something it’s legal to contract for. So how is a Letter of Intent NOT a contract? You have to remove one of the elements, usually the offer or consideration. It has to say that it’s not an offer, for example - that it’s a negotiation document. And 99/100, LoI’s don’t say that at all.
Contracts
Venue Rental Agreement
Wisconsin
If a new company takes over my wedding venue is my original contract still valid at all?
I originally signed a contract months ago for my wedding venue. The venue was free as long as a $5,000 catering minimum was hit. Now a new company took over the venue and they are charging $3000 to use the venue not including catering and regardless of any food and beverage minimum. Needless to say this is about $3000 more than I was anticipating to spend. Is this legal?
Robert A.
I know people hate this answer from attorneys, but it depends on the wording of the contract and the specific facts of the situation. Most contracts will have a clause governing assignment of the contract to a third party. That clause will determine if the terms of the original contract are assignable to the new company operating the venue. If the contract is not assignable, or if the original operator decided not to assign the contract to the new operator, then you will have a new agreement with the new operator. Most contracts will also have a clause governing how the terms of the contract can be changed. If you would like a review of your situation and your contract, you can request a proposal for a review session. I generally do those at a flat fee, based on the length of the contract. I'm sure other attorneys would offer similar rates.
Contracts
Liability Waiver
Connecticut
Can a liability waiver be too broad?
I am a business owner and I am looking to have a liability waiver created for my business. I am concerned that the waiver might be too broad and not effectively protect my business from potential liabilities. I am looking for advice on how to ensure that the waiver is comprehensive, yet not overly broad.
Donya G.
Yes. If the state has laws that would limit liability or outline that certain conduct in that state would be the burden of the owner, that would be difficult and sometimes prohibited from being passed on to others
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.
