Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Contract Agreement

South Carolina

Asked on Feb 1, 2022

I sold my house but was never paid

To avoid foreclosure, I spoke with a contractor to flip my house for me. He would pay my mortgage until it sold then pay it off and keep the profit. I walk away with the mortgage company paid, but I was fouled. He isn't paying the mortgage after I signed the contract. I'm concerned he will be able to sell it now himself without the mortgage company ever being paid.

Christopher B.

Answered Feb 8, 2022

There are many issues involved in this question. I would need to see the original deed and mortgage on your house plus the contract you signed with the contractor. The original mortgage almost certainly had an acceleration clause stating that if you sold the property, then the full mortgage becomes due. Going after the contractor might be possible but other avenues would more likely be the better route to keep your house from being foreclosed. Will also need to see if your contract gives ownership to the contractor or just the right to sell on your behalf. Lots of additional questions that need documents to give you your options.

Independent Contractor Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Nov 9, 2023

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.

Shelia H.

Answered Nov 10, 2023

If you are considering using a template for your independent contractor agreement, you should view it as a starting point. It can be a good way of finding boilerplate provisions that are going to be in just about every agreement. Unfortunately, because they are templates, you run the risk of leaving out important details that may apply to your situation. Additionally, the template might not go far enough in protecting interests that you specifically need to have protected. Think of it this way. Template agreements are usually so general, they will probably be valid in almost every state. Consequently, by being general, they usually leave out key details that would apply in your situation but not in other contractors' situations. You should always consider having an attorney review your agreement to make sure that the agreement meets your legal needs and that it is legally binding in your state.

Master Service Agreement

Texas

Asked on Apr 23, 2023

What should be included in my master services agreement?

I am a small business owner who is in the process of entering into a Master Service Agreement with an outside party. I am looking for guidance on what should be included in the agreement in order to ensure that my interests are protected and that all parties involved are aware of their rights and responsibilities. I am seeking legal advice on this matter to ensure that the agreement is comprehensive and legally binding.

Kathryn K.

Answered Apr 25, 2023

The critical terms for an MSA will vary widely depending on your industry and the nature of the transaction. Generally speaking, MSAs should include terms addressing: term, termination, structure of the transaction (i.e., are multiple SOWs contemplated), intellectual property ownership, limitations on liability, indemnification, warranties, timing and payment terms, and confidentiality. Those are what I would call the material terms that are critical to setting the expectations of the parties, protecting your interests, and most likely to come up in the event of a dispute. There are myriad other issues that are slightly less important but still need to be addressed, including everything from dispute resolution to assignment to independent contractor status. Depending on your industry, you may need highly detailed sections on data protection and service levels, or not need any language on those issues whatsoever. I highly recommend you consult with an attorney who has experience in drafting MSAs and can prepare a template for you to use for this transaction and all similar deals moving forward. Please note this is not legal advice and this message does not create an attorney-client relationship; I do, however, have extensive experience in commercial contracts and would be happy to assist.

Independent Contractor Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Nov 13, 2023

What are common pitfalls in contractor agreements?

I am a small business owner looking to hire an independent contractor to help with some of my workload. I am concerned about entering into an agreement with the contractor and would like to know more about common pitfalls in contractor agreements so that I can ensure I am entering into a fair and equitable arrangement.

Peter R.

Answered Nov 14, 2023

There are several potential pitfalls that can be mitigated or removed by addressing them in the contract. These include: whether the contract calls itself an independent contractor agreement but yet fails the test for an independent contractor and therefore brings in matters such as workers compensation coverage (depending on number of employees), liability for contractors acts or omissions, unemployment tax, tax withholding v 1099 and several others. These can be eliminated via proper drafting.

I 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.
