Business Contracts
Consulting Agreement
Texas
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.
Darryl S.
- Include due dates, frequency, and delivery methods for reports, meetings, and other intermittent tasks. - Establish metrics and KPIs for quantifying performance, progress, and acceptable quality measures. Have a lawyer help you draft a clear set of requirements UP FRONT.
Business Contracts
Construction Agreement
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
Matthew S.
What is the basis for the additional $5K? In general, if you never consented to it in a contract, asking for more is a breach of contract and you can sue to enforce the contract at the original price or sue to recover the cost to complete the project with someone else.
Business Contracts
Memorandum of Understanding
Texas
Can a Memorandum of Understanding be legally binding?
I am currently involved in a business partnership negotiation, and the other party has proposed signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) as a preliminary agreement before drafting a formal contract. I have heard conflicting information about the legal enforceability of MOUs, with some sources suggesting they are binding while others claim they are not. I want to know if signing an MOU would hold any legal weight and if it could potentially be used against me in case of a dispute or breach of agreement.
Darryl S.
Yes - MOUs can be binding if signed by both parties and the language does not specifically call out that it's subject to a future document and/or that it is NOT legally binding on the parties. You will need to review the agreement carefully to see what language says.
Business Contracts
Freelance Contract
Texas
Can I include a non-compete clause in a freelance contract to protect my business interests?
I am a small business owner who frequently hires freelancers to work on projects for my company. Recently, I had a freelancer complete a project for me, only to discover that they started their own business offering similar services and are now competing directly with my company. This has caused financial harm to my business, so I am wondering if I can include a non-compete clause in future freelance contracts to prevent this from happening again and protect my business interests.
Darryl S.
YES - you can include a non-compete in your contract, but the enforceability of non-competes is currently unsettled due to a recent FTC ruling making them illegal. Things are changing fast on this topic and you should seek legal advice.
Business Contracts
Independent Contractor Agreement
Texas
Are electronic signatures valid on contractor agreements?
I am an independent contractor and I was recently asked to sign an agreement using an electronic signature. I am concerned about the validity of this agreement and want to make sure that I am protected under the law if I sign it. I am looking for advice from a lawyer to understand if electronic signatures are legally valid on independent contractor agreements.
Darryl S.
YES. How is that for a simple answer? Sadly - simple answers are rare with most lawyers. Not me. Check out my website where I offer fixed fee services on 1099 Contractor Agreement review or templates. www.fixedfeelawfirm.com.
