Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

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.

Independent Contractor Agreement

Washington

Asked on Nov 10, 2023

How detailed should the contractor agreement be?

I am a small business owner and I am looking to hire an independent contractor to work with my business. I want to ensure that the independent contractor agreement is thorough and legally binding, but I am not sure how detailed it needs to be. I want to make sure that all the relevant terms and conditions are included in the agreement to protect both parties.

Merry K.

Answered Dec 19, 2023

The agreement should be as detailed as possible, including details on how to dissolve the contract for various reasons. The scope of work should be included - if it's likely to change once in a while, include that as an addendum and note that it will change from time to time. Whenever it's going to change, execute a new addendum that both parties sign and date. It is your job to protect yourself, not the independent contractor - write the contract so that it strongly favors you; if the independent contractor wants to change it before signing, that is a question of negotiation.

Service Level Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Dec 26, 2024

Can a company be held liable for not meeting the service level agreement outlined in a contract?

I recently entered into a contract with a software development company to build a custom application for my business. The contract included a service level agreement (SLA) that outlined specific performance metrics and guarantees for the software. However, since the project started, the company has consistently failed to meet these performance metrics, causing significant delays and impacting the functionality of the application. I want to understand if the company can be held legally liable for not meeting the SLA and if I have any recourse to seek compensation or terminate the contract due to their failure to meet the agreed-upon terms.

Jeff G.

Answered Dec 27, 2024

Yes. A SLA in a written contract is part of that contract. And even without a specifically-stated remedy, you may be able to sue for breach. It's not all cut-and-dried, however, as there can be a multitude of other contractual limitations or considerations that would need to be considered after a thorough review of the agreement, the documentation of the work that's been done and any type of waivers provided for missing the SLAs.

SaaS Reseller Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Dec 16, 2024

Can a SaaS reseller agreement be terminated by the software provider without cause?

Can a SaaS reseller agreement be terminated by the software provider without cause? I am a software reseller who has entered into a reseller agreement with a SaaS provider. The agreement does not specify any termination clauses or conditions, but it also does not explicitly state that the software provider can terminate the agreement without cause. Recently, the software provider informed me that they will be terminating the agreement without providing any specific reason. I am concerned about the potential impact on my business and want to understand if the software provider has the legal right to terminate the agreement without cause, and if so, what my options are moving forward.

Jeff G.

Answered Jan 3, 2025

Hi. The answer is entirely dependent on the agreement’s language. Without seeing the contract, it’s impossible to give you a complete answer. Generally, an agreement can only be terminated by it’s own conditions, and absent a specific termination clause, it can usually be terminated either due to a breach of the agreement or by suing for breach and asking for termination as the result (so-called “equitable relief”). But with a reseller agreement, there are lots of new variables, as you’re not a user of the product… questions about to who and when you can resell., specific product versions, support provisions, etc. And there’s also a general prohibition against contracts of servitude, requiring an indefinite provision of personal services (which a SaaS contract could be argued to be). So again, the contract language is critical.

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.
