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.

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.

I need a lawyer to take over a case from the lawyer that filed it. She has become very ill and can't finish the case
Breach of Contract & Defamation case has been filed. Defendants have been served and replied with a countersuit. Current Lawyer has become very ill from Covid and can no longer see the case to the end. She will help with all proof and documentation. Case is filed in Chenango County Supreme Court in Chenango County NY. Local lawyers do not do this type of case. No court date has been set yet. Case was filed 9/30/21

Many lawyers on Contracts Counsel can handle this case, including my firm.

Can a contract be amended without the consent of both parties?
I entered into a contract with a business partner to start a small consulting firm, outlining our respective roles, profit sharing, and decision-making process. However, my partner recently informed me that they intend to amend the contract to give themselves a greater share of the profits and decision-making power, without seeking my consent. I am concerned about the legality and enforceability of these proposed amendments, and I want to know if a contract can be amended without the consent of both parties, and what legal recourse I may have in this situation.
Daniel D.
In most cases, a contract cannot be unilaterally amended by one party without the consent of the other party. Contracts are agreements that require mutual consent, so any changes to the terms must also be agreed upon by all parties involved, unless the original contract explicitly provides for unilateral amendments (which is rare in standard contracts, especially those related to partnerships).

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)

Do you work for a commission of what is recovered?
We purchased a home with an enclosed sun room. This room was not permitted and is not up to code, therefor has to be torn down and rebuilt at a cost of $25,000. I feel this should have been disclosed by the seller and home inspector we hired. Do we have any recourse?
Donya G.
Hello, This is possible. As a reminder, each attorney on the website works independently and may or may choose to work on commission. In order to inquire whether an attorney will want to work on commission, you will need to post the job on the website, with a likely title like " looking for an attorney to discuss home improvement cost to work on commission based on results". Once the interested attorneys respond, you can then speak with them in determining how to proceed. Donya Gordon, Esq.

How to get out of a business contract?
I want to get out of a contract with our main vendor and have been reading the contract but it doesn't say much. I believe this is in the termination clause based on research, but it doesn't specifically say what I need to do. Any advice?
Donya G.
A contract generally has termination terms; that would be the way to get out. If there are no terms, then the best thing to do is negotiate with the party on an exit strategy that is agreeable to both parties. As a contracts attorney that specializes in contracts and contracts disputes, I would be happy to assist. You can connect with me on the website or through my profile page - Donya Gordon Donya

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

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.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
