Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Contracts
General Tenancy Agreement
California
cost to sue tenant for back rent in a commercial property
Commercial tenant stopped making lease & CAM payments for months. The lease has 5+ years remaining on lease. The tenant is personally liable for the lease (no corporation / LLC). We wish to pursue suit, obtain a judgement and then collect the judgement.
Dolan W.
Hello! My name is Dolan and I'm happy to answer questions for you. If a tenant has received proper notice to cure a defect in the rental agreement, or is a holdover tenant, the law requires a CA landlord to go to court for the eviction (called an unlawful detainer). The main steps in an eviction are: The landlord must give notice (e.g., a 3-day notice to pay rent, or a 30-day notice to vacate); If the defect is not “cured,” then the landlord must begin eviction proceedings by filling out form CM-010, form UD-100, form UD-101, and SUM 130 (the summons); After filing (and serving) the document, the court will wait at least 5 days to schedule a hearing. If the tenant files a court form to give their side of the story, the landlord can ask for a trial date. If the tenant does not, the landlord can ask for a default judgment; If there is a trial, a judge will hear both sides. After the judge decides, the judge issues an order the landlord can take to the sheriff to help effectuate the eviction.

Contracts
SaaS Agreement
Illinois
Why do SAAS companies not provide warranties in their agreements?
Being asked to sign and am curious...
Sarah S.
Because it's in the name "Software as a service." Warranties are only for products. SAAS is constantly evolving and has a strives to always be working but it would be very hard to guarantee. Plus, product warranties are generally only guaranteed for a certain period of time and SAAS is usually good for the contract duration.
Contracts
Subscription Agreement
New York
Can a subscription agreement be terminated before the agreed-upon term if the company fails to deliver the promised services?
I recently entered into a subscription agreement with a company for their monthly service, which was advertised as providing a specific set of services. However, since signing the agreement, I have encountered numerous issues with the company's performance, including frequent service outages and failure to deliver the promised services. I am now considering terminating the subscription agreement before the agreed-upon term, but I am unsure if I have legal grounds to do so based on the company's failure to fulfill their obligations under the agreement.
Damien B.
Hello! A material breach occurs when one party fails to perform an essential part of the contract, depriving the other party of its expected benefits. If the company’s failure to deliver the promised services meets this threshold, it could justify termination. If the company has demonstrably failed to uphold its obligations and this failure undermines the agreement's purpose, you may have legal grounds to terminate. If you need a consultation, just let me know.
Contracts
Letter of Intent
Pennsylvania
Letter of intent
I registered a startup clothing boutique in PA and I planned to attend a fashion trade show to purchase from wholesale vendors. Because I am a startup and my business is not up and running I am required to provide a letter of intent for my boutique. How do I go about getting a letter of intent signed by lawyer?
Amy Sue L.
A "letter of intent" is typically not signed by a lawyer, it is signed by two or more parties who intend to enter into a transaction together in the future, but who do not yet have sufficient details regarding the terms of the transaction to enter into a formal agreement. Has the trade show given any additional info / context about this request? - I think your question has not been answered because your use of the term "letter of intent" and "lawyer" in this context is unusual. More information about what you mean by "registered a startup" would also be helpful - if you have formed a company, you should be able to provide a certificate of good standing or other evidence of that formation to the show, which may be sufficient. If you cannot provide that documentation, I wonder if you are also using the term "registered" in another, non-traditional way (from a legal point of view)? Happy to try to help with more info!

Employment Contract
Ohio
What's personal leave in an employment contract?
I have recently been offered a job, and the employment contract I have been provided with states that I am entitled to personal leave. I am not sure what this is, or what it entitles me to. I would like to know what rights and responsibilities I have regarding personal leave, and what the employer's expectations are of me with regards to this leave.
Jeffrey K.
Personal leave sometimes replaces vacation and sick time. Some employers just give employees time off for whatever reason the employee chooses. To know more about the rights and responsibilities, you should speak to HR at your new employer who will help you with the employer's expectations and your rights under the leave provision in your contract. Also, look at your contract as it may provide insight as to how to implement the leave. When in doubt, speak to HR. Thanks.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
