Franchise Agreement
Pennsylvania
I need help getting out of a franchise agreement and not paying the upfront fee
I have signed an agreement with nurse next door but that a crisis happened in my life that i had to spend my start up funds for, and now i cant start because i will end up filling for bankruptcy. And i told them this they did not reconsider pulling the agreement i signed when i have not started anything i have not take their training or and did not start doing the home care license and i don't have access to any of there software I just signed so is there a way that i could get out since i have not started anything please i can’t afford this anymore i used to when i signed but life happened
Ryan W.
Hi I am sorry to hear about the crisis going on in your personal life. Unfortunately, the best answer I can provide is that "it depends." Once you sign a valid contract, the terms of the contract will likely control how you get out of that contract. Some contracts will have a rescission clause that will let you terminate if done so within a prescribed period of time. Others may have written notice requirements or other actions that are needed before the contract can be terminated. It is tough to tell you exactly how you can terminate your contract without first reviewing it.

My company is going to have a contract deal with another company from Togo. And we have to find a Senior Advocate of Togo to represent us because we couldn't go there for the signing ceremony. But the problem is, we still don't know the average cost to hire a senior advocate when it comes to power of attorney. Can you help us by giving the average cost so we know how much money we can negotiate? Thank you so much for your help.
We are exporters who's going to have a contract deal with an importer from Togo.

Software Agreement
California
Software agreement and dispute resolution?
I am a software developer who recently entered into a software agreement with a business. We have had a few disputes arise during the course of the agreement, and I am not sure how to properly address them. I am looking for advice on how to resolve these disputes in accordance with the terms of the software agreement.
Thaddeus W.
Dispute resolution under a software agreement or other contract will typically be governed by the terms of the contract. A well-prepared software agreement will include a specific section or other provision saying exactly how a dispute will be resolved. These can (and often should) be very detailed. Sometimes, different types of disputes will have different dispute mechanisms. For example, a dispute over whether a deliverable was accepted may be subject to one approach, a dispute over payment may be governed by another, and a dispute over a claim of a violation of third-party rights by yet a third. Again, it depends on the terms of the contract. Hopefully, your contract includes a clear and specific provision for dispute resolution. If not, then you would default to trying to work it out. If that is not realistic, if the parties are willing to try mediation, that is often far more preferable to a lawsuit, both because it is usually far less expensive, and because it is not public. But, mediation is voluntary and, if the parties don't come to an agreement with the assistance of the neutral mediator, there is nothing from the mediation that can be enforced. That leaves the parties with a lawsuit or, if the parties agree (or if the contract provides for it) arbitration might be used instead of a lawsuit. Arbitration is often (but not always) less expensive. But, it will be confidential, whereas a lawsuit is a public matter. My dispute resolution provisions often include a stepped approach. Before a party is entitled to sue or initiate arbitration, they have to try to work it out between themselves for a specified period of time. Failing that, often I provide that mediation must be the next step. Only after that, if resolution by mediation fails, is arbitration or a lawsuit permitted. A good dispute resolution provision should include a number of other provisions, including: governing law, location of the proceeding (venue), forum (e.g., federal or state court, or AAA or JAMS as the arbitrator), number of arbitrators if applicable, rules of evidence and other rules in an arbitration if applicable, waiver of procedural defenses to venue and forum, a "loser pays" provision (or not), possibly a cap on "damages" (money the loser must pay), a contract-based statute of limitations, a finality provision (no appeals allowed), how and where an award under arbitration can be enforced ... among other considerations. Also, in many cases you will want a carefully prepared "equitable remedies" provision that is separate from any other dispute resolution provisions. This would allow a party to go to a court to ask the court not for money, but for force the other party to do or not do something. This often covers things like confidentiality, non-disparagement, indemnification, misuse by one party of property owned by the other, or other situations where payment of money is not applicable or won't be enough. Finally, these days, it is not a bad idea to include a specific provision allowing remote proceedings during any time and place where governing authorities have declared a health emergency related to a contagion ... or even just where an in-person proceeding can fairly be substituted with technology like Zoom to help keep costs down and otherwise for general convenience of the parties and "judicial economy."

How are deliverables defined in a consulting agreement?
I am a small business owner and I am looking to hire a consultant to help me with a project. I am looking to understand how deliverables will be defined in the consulting agreement so that both parties are clear on expectations. I want to make sure that the consultant is held accountable for the work they are delivering and that I am satisfied with the outcome of the project.

Terms and Conditions
Washington
Can users contest terms and conditions?
I recently started an online business and I am in the process of creating the terms and conditions for my website. I am concerned that users may contest the terms and conditions, and I am looking for advice on how I can ensure that my terms and conditions are legally binding. I would also like to know what the consequences are for users who breach the terms and conditions.
Merry A.
Users can contest anything - the question is would they win. I urge you to get legal advice from a qualified attorney before imposing or changing terms and conditions - I see you have a lot of questions about TOC, and you're not going to get proper legal advice/guidance/review just by posting questions. (And, no, please do not ask for me - this is a specialized field, and I'm not qualified or experienced to help you, much as I would like to).

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.
