Dispute Legal Questions and Answers

Dispute

Contract Agreement

Utah

Asked on Jul 29, 2021

Should I sign a contract if I don't understand what it is saying?

Has a contract with someone where if we disagreed we would go to mediation. They refused to go, they offered us a settlement as long as we signed another contract. I don't understand fully what it is saying.

Donya G.

Answered Oct 5, 2021

Absolutely NOT. You never sign ANYTHING you do not understand because when you sign, you become bound to those terms whether you understood them or not or whether you agree with them or not. Should you later have a disagreement on the contract you signed, the court, or arbitrator will see your signature on the document as a sign that you read, understood and agreed to the terms. You will need to hire an attorney to review the initial agreement to see if they can refuse mediation as well as to look at the new contract and let you know what it says and whether you should sign it or not. I am a contracts attorney and if you you would like my services, you can contact me on the contracts counsel website.

Partnership Agreement

New York

Asked on Feb 9, 2022

litigation over partnership

Partner is diverting monies for his own use

Donya G.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

Hello, I am sorry to hear that. Do you have a contract for the partnership? What does it say about resolving disputes? Do you have evidence of the misuse of funds? Can you cut off the funds so that they can no longer misuse the funds? For your safety, please do not confront the partner. All your remedies will depend on your agreement and the state of your business incorporation or where you do business. I see you are in New York. Is that where your business is incorporated? I would love the opportunity to work with you to resolve this. I am an New York contracts attorney who works with clients on contract disputes. I am an Arbitrator and have been a judicial clerk to a Civil Court Judge so I have extensive experience with disputes. When can we get on a call to discuss? I am available later today, Friday 18th or anytime next week. You can connect with me on Contracts Counsel. Looking forward to hearing from and working with you. Sincerely Donya Gordon

Dispute

Contract Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Aug 5, 2021

What is my best path to recover a down payment paid to a contractor who never started my job and has gone MIA while I've been trying to cordially recover my money. Demand Letter via certified mail etc..?

I signed a contract with a contractor to update my home. I signed the contract and paid a $5k deposit (the contract has zero verbiage related to a deposit) to 'get on his list'. After several months and failed attempts to get a specific start date I informed the contractor I was not going to move forward with the project. He said he would pay the deposit back but asked for me to accept $1000 / month. He paid $1000 back however has gone MIA since and is not returning any calls or texts.

Jane C.

Answered Oct 5, 2021

I suggest you have an attorney send a demand letter. If that fails, you can bring you claim against the contractor to small claims court.

Dispute

Software Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 12, 2023

Software agreement and dispute escalation?

I am a software developer who recently entered into a software agreement with a client. We have been having some disputes regarding the agreement, but we have been unable to come to a satisfactory resolution. I am now looking for advice on how to best resolve the dispute and how to protect my rights under the software agreement.

Daniel D.

Answered Jul 18, 2023

The first step to resolving a dispute is to look at what the software agreement says. The agreement may have terms or conditions in there that discuss what happens when there is a dispute. Without seeing the agreement it is difficult to say what you could do to best protect your rights and resolve the dispute.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
