As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W.

My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

Contracts
Escrow Services Agreement
Texas
Can you explain how escrow services work and what legal protections they provide?
I am in the process of purchasing a property, and the seller has suggested using an escrow service to handle the transaction. While I have a general understanding of escrow, I would like a more detailed explanation of how it works and the legal protections it offers. I want to ensure that my money and the seller's property are both protected during the process, and I would also like to understand any potential risks or liabilities associated with using an escrow service.
Darryl S.
Escrow means that a neutral, trusted third party will hold funds or assets and only release them when the Escrow Holder judges that the terms of the deal have been met. The Escrow Holder provides legal protection to both sides by ensuring that funds or assets are only released when all contractual obligations are fulfilled, thereby minimizing risk and ensuring trust in transactions.

Contractor Agreement
Texas
How to handle breaches in a contractor agreement?
I am currently working with a contractor to complete a project for my business. We have agreed to a contract and have been working together for the past few months. Recently, I have noticed that the contractor is not meeting the requirements of the contract and I would like to know how to handle these breaches in a contractor agreement.
Michelle T.
Great question. First, you want to read your contract very carefully to see if the actions are in fact a violation of its terms, sometimes there can be flexibility in the provisions with regard to timelines and so forth. If there is in fact a breach, make sure you keep accurate documentation of the violations. Often times, a well written letter to the other party listing their obligations under the contract and how they have breached those violations is enough to get them to change their behavior. If not, you have the option to ask the court to enforce the agreement or require the breaching party to compensate you for any damages.

Event Space Rental Agreement
Texas
Are there any legal implications I should be aware of before signing an event space rental agreement?
I am in the process of renting an event space for a corporate event, and I have received a rental agreement from the venue. However, I am not well-versed in legal matters and want to ensure I am not exposing myself to any unnecessary risks or liabilities. I would like to consult a lawyer to understand if there are any specific clauses or legal implications I should be aware of before signing the agreement, such as liability waivers, cancellation policies, or any hidden fees that could potentially affect my event or financial obligations.
Randy M.
Here’s how you should think about an event space rental agreement before signing. The legal implications vary depending on the venue’s contract and the state where the event is held, but the following are the main areas that tend to carry the most risk. Liability and Insurance Most agreements include indemnification clauses that shift responsibility for injuries or property damage onto you as the renter. This can mean that if a guest slips on a spill or equipment is damaged, you may be required to cover the venue’s legal costs, even if the venue was partly at fault. Look for mutual indemnification, where the venue accepts responsibility for its own negligence. Venues typically require you to carry general liability insurance and provide proof of coverage, with the venue named as an additional insured. Policy limits are often set at $1 million or more. If you’ll be serving alcohol, check whether liquor liability coverage is required. Make sure the agreement doesn’t attempt to make you liable for “ordinary wear and tear,” which isn’t normally compensable under contract law. Cancellation and Force Majeure Cancellation provisions are often strict. Many venues use a tiered refund system, where the closer you get to the event date, the less you’ll recover. Deposits are usually nonrefundable. You’ll also want clarity on what happens if the venue cancels—at a minimum, you should receive a full refund of amounts already paid. Force majeure clauses excuse both parties if unforeseeable events like government shutdowns, natural disasters, or pandemics prevent the event. Courts interpret these clauses narrowly, so if you want protection for specific risks like labor strikes or public health orders, they should be spelled out in the contract. Financial Terms Base rental fees are often only part of the total cost. Agreements may include cleaning fees, mandatory service charges (often 18 to 25 percent on catering), overtime charges, corkage or cake-cutting fees, or penalties for exceeding capacity. Some contracts classify service charges as administrative fees rather than gratuities, which can affect both budgeting and compliance with state wage laws. Payment schedules should be clear about when deposits are due, when final balances must be paid, and what happens if you miss a deadline. Operational Restrictions Most venues impose rules on how the space can be used. These may include restrictions on decorations (no nails, no open flames), amplified sound, alcohol service, or access times for setup and breakdown. If you want to bring in your own caterer, florist, or DJ, confirm whether outside vendors are allowed or whether you’ll be charged extra for not using preferred providers. Many venues require proof of insurance from outside vendors, which you’ll need to coordinate in advance. Legal Enforceability of Waivers Liability waivers included in venue agreements aren’t enforceable in the same way in every state. For example, New York generally won’t enforce waivers that attempt to release a venue from its own negligence, while many other states will uphold them unless gross negligence or intentional misconduct is involved. This is one area where a lawyer familiar with local law can tell you how much weight the waiver really carries. Practical Steps Before Signing Have your business insurance agent review the venue’s insurance requirements to confirm your policy covers rented event spaces. If not, you can purchase event-specific coverage. Ask the venue to provide a detailed cost estimate including all fees so there are no surprises. Finally, before you commit to an event space rental agreement, make sure the terms don’t leave you with unexpected liability or costs. The experienced business attorneys on Contracts Counsel are available to review your contract, flag risks, and negotiate fairer terms so you can focus on hosting a successful event with confidence.
Contracts
Agreement Of Purchase And Sale
Texas
could the owner finance seller still be able to change the maturity date payment term of the contract post signature.
I sold my mortgage home by owner finance in 2016. It has 15 year maturity date term.
Domonick G.
Depends. It must be in writing unless specified in the agreement otherwise. Further, do both party mutually agree or does the original contract all for a unilateral change, per its terms.
Contracts
Purchase Contract
Texas
Auto purchase agreement on trade in payoff.
The dealer we recently purchased a new car from didn’t pay off our trade in until 7 weeks after the contact. In Texas they have 25 days to pay off a trade in. We asked the dealer to to push back our payment 2 months since they were late paying off our trade in. I called the bank we financed with (Kia Financial) and they said to go to the dealer and have them push back the contract payments 2 months The dealer is saying there’s nothing they can do. I feel like we are being taken completely advantage of.
Donya G.
Have you spoken to the dealers manager or the manager of the dealership? if you haven't already done so, you should. Make sure to mention the delay in the dealer paying off the trade in and the fact that you called the the bank and they have told you this delay of two months can be done. If they don't listen to you, then it would be time to hire an attorney to assist you. If you would to engage my services where I would call the dealership on your behalf, you can contact me on the contracts counsel website and I would be happy to assist. Regards, Donya Gordon
