Contracts
Venue Rental Agreement
Wisconsin
If a new company takes over my wedding venue is my original contract still valid at all?
I originally signed a contract months ago for my wedding venue. The venue was free as long as a $5,000 catering minimum was hit. Now a new company took over the venue and they are charging $3000 to use the venue not including catering and regardless of any food and beverage minimum. Needless to say this is about $3000 more than I was anticipating to spend. Is this legal?
Robert A.
I know people hate this answer from attorneys, but it depends on the wording of the contract and the specific facts of the situation. Most contracts will have a clause governing assignment of the contract to a third party. That clause will determine if the terms of the original contract are assignable to the new company operating the venue. If the contract is not assignable, or if the original operator decided not to assign the contract to the new operator, then you will have a new agreement with the new operator. Most contracts will also have a clause governing how the terms of the contract can be changed. If you would like a review of your situation and your contract, you can request a proposal for a review session. I generally do those at a flat fee, based on the length of the contract. I'm sure other attorneys would offer similar rates.

Contract Amendment
Florida
How to amend an investment contract?
I am a small business owner who recently entered into an investment contract with a venture capital firm. We have been working together for several months, but I recently learned that certain terms of the contract are no longer beneficial to my business. I need to know how to amend the investment contract so that it is more suitable to the current needs of my business.
Diane D.
You need to draft an addendum with the changes that all parties agreed to referenced and have it signed by both parties. If you do not know how to do it, you will need an attorney to help you.
Contracts
Assignment of Lease
Florida
Contract to lease land from a church?
I’m planning on leasing land from a church. Putting a gym on the property. And leasing it back to the school.
Donya G.
Ok; first step is that you will need a leasing contract with the church. Ask them to prepare one for you so you would just need an attorney to review the agreement and that should cost less than if you had to be the party to pay a lawyer to draft it from scratch. You need to ensure that the purpose of the lease is clearly stated - that you plan to put a gym on the land so that there are no issues if the church leadership changes. Step 2 - you will need a lease agreement with the school that your leasing it do (hopefully one that is similar to the original one your received from the church). Again, please ensure that all the terms that you discuss and agree to are in the document; including length of time, price and how to resolve disputes if you have one. I hope this is helpful. If you would like me to assist you further, you can contact me on Contracts Counsel and we can discuss a fee for my services. Regards, Donya Ramsay (Gordon)

Terms and Conditions
Florida
Are vague terms and conditions valid?
I recently signed a contract with a company that included terms and conditions. Many of the terms were vague and I'm concerned that they may not be valid. I'm worried that this could put me in a vulnerable position and I want to make sure that I understand my rights and obligations before proceeding.
Diane D.
Yes, vague terms and conditions are valid. If you would like for me to review the contract for you before you sign to let you know what you will be or not be liable for, please contact me at ddowns@dmdlawpa.com
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.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
