Roofing Contract
Texas
stuck in a bad contract
I got into a contract with a roofing company that wants to charge me 12 thousand dollars out of pocket on top of he !5 or so thousand that thge insurance is paying or the want 5,800 for breach of contract i need the roof but i cant afford that much debt or cash
Howard B.
Courts will protect you from an illegal deal, but they will not protect you from an unwise deal. On its face, this is enforceable. However, I know Texas has some very strong consumer protection laws and a Texas attorney may be able to help you with that. You will need to speak directly to a Texas attorney. I'm in a neighboring state and not licensed there.

Expert Witness Report
Washington
Can an expert witness report be used as evidence in a court case?
I am currently involved in a legal dispute where I believe an expert witness report would be crucial in supporting my case. The report, prepared by a qualified professional in the field relevant to the dispute, thoroughly examines the technical aspects and provides an unbiased opinion based on their expertise. I am wondering if this report can be admitted as evidence in court, and if so, what are the requirements and potential challenges associated with its admissibility?
Merry K.
Speaking generally, to make the report admissible, you would need to call the expert as a witness and first establish his or her as an expert, and then also argue regarding why the report should be accepted as evidence. Among other things, this means you will be paying the expert to appear in court, and establishing the expert as an expert can take hours and hours if the other side decides to challenge the expert's expertise and challenge the validity of the content of the report. Moreover, the other side will probably call at least one expert of their own to challenge your expert and the expert's report. In most law schools, students must take a year-long class on evidence; this is not a topic easily or quickly learned, but there are some legal encyclopedias, hornbooks, and other guides you may want to consult if you are representing yourself. Please note I am picking a "practice area" at random in answering your question for CC since "trial practice" or "evidence" are not listed choices.

Construction Contract
North Dakota
Does this constitute a breach of contract on the part of the home improvement company?
I'm waiting for a roofing project to get started which is holding up my other home improvement projects. I received an email from the company stating: "This is to confirm that we have your roof install set for 8/25-8/26." After sending several emails to the scheduling manager without response, I called the local project manager on Wed, Sept 1 to check the status. He has no idea when it will get done. I was unaware that they are subcontracting the project so they can't find a crew to do the job. He said he would get back to me but I haven't heard anything since. Contract states in part: "Customer shall be responsible for the cost to Company of any custom ordered products or materials, a 10% restocking fee on any non-custom products or materials, installation costs, if any, incurred by Company, and liquidated damages of 30% of the contract price as and for Company's lost profits. Such costs and damages may be withheld from Customer deposits." I have paid them half of the bid, $7200. Are they in breach of contract? Can I cancel this contract without being responsible for costs and damages and receive a full refund?

Hello, You will need an attorney to review your full agreement in order to properly advise you based on the contract. As such, you will need to post your project on the website Here are the steps you need to take to accomplish this 1. Post the job you need to get accomplished – for example “ I am looking for an attorney to review a contract to determine whether the party is in breach -------------“ 2. Once posted, attorneys on the website that are interested and qualified will respond to your posting 3. Choose an attorney/s based upon their qualifications and cover letter to have a quick call so that you can decide who you would like to hire. 4. After talking with attorneys, choose who you will decide to proceed with. Remember to discuss the cost of the project as well as how long it will take to be completed as well as when payments will be made. 5. Once you have decided who to hire, click “HIRE” and that attorney will now be hired by you. Donya Gordon, Esq.

Time and Materials Contract
California
Can you explain the key terms and potential risks involved in entering into a time and material contract?
I am currently in the process of negotiating a contract with a construction company for a home renovation project, and they have proposed a time and material contract. While I understand that this type of contract allows for flexibility in terms of pricing and scope changes, I am concerned about potential risks and uncertainties associated with such an agreement. I want to ensure that I have a clear understanding of the key terms and conditions, as well as any potential legal implications, before proceeding with this contract.
Dolan W.
Hello! The risks associated with T&M contracts often revolve around cost uncertainty. Since the final price depends on the actual hours worked and materials used, costs can easily exceed the initial estimates, especially if there are delays or unforeseen issues during the project. Additionally, without strict monitoring, contractors may have little incentive to work efficiently or use cost-effective materials. It’s essential to have detailed documentation requirements for time and materials used to ensure transparency. Lawyers essentially have T&M contracts and it's why there are so many disputes, so I'm familiar with your concerns. To adjust for these risks, you can negotiate terms such as a not-to-exceed limit or a guaranteed maximum price. I usually set expectations with clients in advance for my work and you can do the same with this particular contractor. If you need assistance in drafting or negotiating a T&M contract, you can come back and have an agreement prepared through Contractscounsel.com Best of luck! Dolan
