Contracts

Business Partnership Agreement

Tennessee

Asked on May 11, 2022

Zied kefi partnership

I wanna open restaurant with my friend and make legal partnership documents

Rebecca R.

Answered May 13, 2022

You have the right idea to put the partnership in writing. Your attorney will be able to help you think through several issues: investment into the business, operating the business, the potential to add more partners or investors, and an exit strategy for each partner or both partners. The document to start with is a business partnership agreement that outlines the ground rules for your partnership based on the Tennessee law. It can be a very straightforward document, or more complex depending on your needs. For instance, you may also want to create a statement of partnership authority which designates which partners have the authority to enter into agreements on behalf of the partnership, or it may limit the authority of certain partners. This is the kind of business agreement I help small business owners with regularly, and I invite you to request a bid for my services on your project through ContractsCounsel.

Noncompete Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 30, 2023

Noncompete agreement and severance packages?

I recently left my job of 5 years, where I had signed a non-compete agreement. I am now negotiating a severance package with my former employer and am unsure of what my rights and obligations are regarding the non-compete agreement. I am seeking clarification on how the non-compete agreement should be handled in relation to the terms of my severance package.

Diane D.

Answered Sep 1, 2023

To be able to answer this question, I would need to see the agreements. No one can answer your question without seeing the agreements.

Business Contract

Florida

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

How to get out of a business contract?

I want to get out of a contract with our main vendor and have been reading the contract but it doesn't say much. I believe this is in the termination clause based on research, but it doesn't specifically say what I need to do. Any advice?

Donya G.

Answered Oct 14, 2022

A contract generally has termination terms; that would be the way to get out. If there are no terms, then the best thing to do is negotiate with the party on an exit strategy that is agreeable to both parties. As a contracts attorney that specializes in contracts and contracts disputes, I would be happy to assist. You can connect with me on the website or through my profile page - Donya Gordon Donya

Waiver

Washington

Asked on Sep 10, 2024

Can a waiver signed by a participant in a recreational activity protect the activity organizer from liability for injuries caused by their negligence?

I recently participated in a recreational activity organized by a local company, and before participating, I was required to sign a waiver releasing the company from any liability for injuries. During the activity, I sustained a serious injury due to the organizer's negligence in maintaining the equipment. I am now wondering if the waiver I signed is legally enforceable and if it can absolve the company from responsibility for their negligence, or if I still have grounds to seek compensation for my injuries.

Merry K.

Answered Sep 13, 2024

I am very sorry to hear about your injuries, and wish you a speedy and quick recovery. Many attorneys who practice full-time in personal injury law (I'm not one of them) can overcome a release and waiver. Moreover, it's often possible to go after more than just the company in this type of circumstance - there's the company, but there's also the Board, there are individual employees, and there is the manufacturer of any equipment uses (this would be a products liability matter). In Washington, you have at least a year to sue for personal injury. I recommend that you talk with at least three personal injury attorneys. They will want you to have a time line of the event and all the medical treatment you received, and will want to see all your medical records. You don't need someone in your county - it can be anyone licensed in WA State.

Asked on Sep 9, 2021

How to proofread a legal document?

I’m doing a consigning agreement on a piece of art work. I’m lending it back to the private seller for 6 months. I will have a 1 page document drafted by someone who does this often(not lawyer though). Just wanted a proofread by a professional such as yourself.

Donya G.

Answered Sep 14, 2021

This platform allows attorneys who are registered to see your job and apply your needs. First, please go into the platform and post the job - "Need one page review of agreement". After posting, attorneys who are interested will then send you proposals as to how much their services will cost. You will receive email and messages on the site from attorneys who choose to engage in your job posting. Then, you can schedule a time to talk with the attorney or attorneys you would like and finally hire them. Hope that helps Donya
