It depends on the terms of the contract. You can stipulate in the contract which state's law you would like to apply. Laws relating to bailments or the UCC would apply.

Need to draft a personal contract
I need help to prepare a personal contract between myself and Ex-partner. We were never married before. I want to offer her compensations for her losses due to the end of our relationship and need help to write the terms and conditions and discuss legal issues.

OK. You need to decide what you would like the terms to be and discuss them with her. A contract is always best and easier to get done when both parties are in agreement with the terms and what the document should say. Once you have done that, then you should seek to engage with an attorney to assist you with the actual document and the language.

How to determine jurisdiction for lawsuit?
I have a promissory note written in Montana that was breached. I am in New York. I am the borrower and my aunt is the lender; I have since discovered she wrote the note with unfair terms. I need the note voided. What do I do? I can’t find an attorney anywhere to take my case.

Hi - what does the contract say? We are looking for the choice of law clause. If the contract provides for NY choice of law then fantastic! You hire an attorney in New York, send them a demand letter and file in a New York State Court - on the day after the expiration date for your letter. Once you get your judgment in New York, you hire a collections attorney in Montana to go collect your judgement (if they won't pay up - its amazing how much they are willing to pay when you get a local lawyer to put a lien on their house!) If the choice of law clause says Montana - you can (i) be certain and hire a lawyer in Montana and follow the same process or (ii) be aggressive, hire and file in New York, just to ensure that they have to hire a New York lawyer to get the case dismissed. The second situation would be if you think they would rather settle with you than pay someone in New York to get the case dismissed. There is a lot of strategy to consider - but the most important thing in any of this is to be decisive and move forward with a lawyer quickly once you decide on a course of action. I've seen clients who had stronger cases lose in the end because the other side was aggressive in Court and had their lawyer on a retainer immediately and filed before my client could finish "considering her options."
