Can a recruiting services agreement be terminated by either party without cause?

The short answer to your question is (as always): it depends. Importantly, how are cause and without cause defined in your employment agreement? This is a very fact dependent question that relies on the agreement. I recommend you consult with a local employment attorney to answer those questions. Good luck.

Hello, I can assist you in negotiating to keep the equipment. I would first need to review the agreement and advise of the terms in which we can achieve that based on your contract. I would then call the leasing company and negotiate a settlement if I can. It would be up to the language in the agreement and the parties to decide whether or not to accept the offer. I have negotiated settlements in the past for my clients and have extensive experience with it. If you would like my assistance, you can contact me through the website. Otherwise, you can post your job on the website for other attorneys to bid and apply to the job. All the best Donya Gordon

Generally speaking, we charge for all time spent on a file. If I'm away from my desk for your case, then I can't work on other cases. So, yes, a five-minute hearing in court might result in a two-hour bill, because that was two hours dedicated to your case. That's why lawyers like to schedule multiple cases for the same hearing: we can pro-rate the travel and waiting time over multiple cases. Flat fees do not normally get a charge for travel or waiting time, because that time is included in the flat fee. A lot of judges start their hearings by "calling the docket" (bringing up each case one by one) and getting time estimates; then calling the cases beginning with the shortest time estimates. Some judges leave all the cases without lawyers to the end. This results in (A) the people involved in cases without lawyers see how it's done; and (B) the lawyers spend less time sitting around waiting and go back to being productive.

Your operating agreement should detail who has what responsibilities between the two of you, and it should establish checks and balances for each of your roles.

Hello! There should be an alterations clause in your lease that speaks to what is or isn't allowed in your space. Your safest bet is to have your landlord review and sign a letter of consent for more substantial improvements (beyond paint, mounting items, etc.)
