Hello Jake, I'm a transactional and corporate lawyer working in-house counsel for a company with 13 entitles and thus, I have to constantly draft, review, amend and negotiate commercial transactions and contracts on a weekly basis. As a result of this work, I have a great understanding of what clauses are needed within a contract to protect an entity/person and what clauses are needed to ensure the contract is covering all probable scenarios that may arise of the contract, such as, lack of payment or breach of contract. Maybe I can assist you with your purchase agreement. Feel free to text or call me at (305) 510-2722 or email mjosephkelly@gmail.com Best regards, -Michael J. Kelly, Esq.

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.

Hello! Just to be clear, I am not licensed to practice in Texas, but I am a licensed attorney in Oklahoma. I have seen this question be unanswered for a while, so I thought I'd respond. Typically, once the parties have both agreed (by writing and signing) terms of a contract, including a maturity date for payment, the maturity date can only be changed by all parties in another signed writing. That means that one party (such as the owner finance seller) should not be able to change the payment terms of an agreement without your express approval. Hope that helps!

Generally, **a roofing contractor cannot unilaterally increase the agreed-upon contract price simply because the originally selected roofing tile has been discontinued.** Under Florida contract law, the parties are generally bound by the terms of their signed agreement, including the agreed price, materials, and any provisions governing substitutions or change orders. The key issue is whether your contract contains a provision allowing the contractor to adjust pricing due to material unavailability, substitutions, or increased costs. If the agreement establishes a fixed price without such an exception, the contractor generally cannot require you to pay an additional $2,000 without your agreement. I recommend requesting written documentation confirming that the original tile has been discontinued, identifying the proposed replacement, and explaining the additional $2,000 charge. You should also review the contract's change-order provisions before agreeing to any modification. **You may have grounds to insist on performance at the original contract price or negotiate an alternative tile at no additional cost.** However, your rights ultimately depend on the specific contract language and whether the contractor has a contractual basis for the requested adjustment. An attorney can review the agreement to determine whether the increase is enforceable and what remedies may be available if the contractor refuses to proceed.

Expert Witness Report

Washington

Asked on Aug 25, 2024

Can an expert witness report be used as evidence in a court case?

I am currently involved in a legal dispute where I believe an expert witness report would be crucial in supporting my case. The report, prepared by a qualified professional in the field relevant to the dispute, thoroughly examines the technical aspects and provides an unbiased opinion based on their expertise. I am wondering if this report can be admitted as evidence in court, and if so, what are the requirements and potential challenges associated with its admissibility?

Speaking generally, to make the report admissible, you would need to call the expert as a witness and first establish his or her as an expert, and then also argue regarding why the report should be accepted as evidence. Among other things, this means you will be paying the expert to appear in court, and establishing the expert as an expert can take hours and hours if the other side decides to challenge the expert's expertise and challenge the validity of the content of the report. Moreover, the other side will probably call at least one expert of their own to challenge your expert and the expert's report. In most law schools, students must take a year-long class on evidence; this is not a topic easily or quickly learned, but there are some legal encyclopedias, hornbooks, and other guides you may want to consult if you are representing yourself. Please note I am picking a "practice area" at random in answering your question for CC since "trial practice" or "evidence" are not listed choices.

Courts will protect you from an illegal deal, but they will not protect you from an unwise deal. On its face, this is enforceable. However, I know Texas has some very strong consumer protection laws and a Texas attorney may be able to help you with that. You will need to speak directly to a Texas attorney. I'm in a neighboring state and not licensed there.
