Child Custody
Custodial Agreement
Texas
Can a custodial agreement be modified if the non-custodial parent is consistently violating the terms?
I am the custodial parent of my child, and the non-custodial parent has been consistently violating the terms of our custodial agreement by failing to show up for scheduled visitations, not providing financial support, and disregarding important decisions regarding our child's education and healthcare. I want to know if it is possible to modify the custodial agreement to ensure that the non-custodial parent is held accountable for their actions and to protect the best interests of our child.

If the agreement is an out of court agreement, a petition can be filed to obtain a custody order. Once an order is obtained, if a party violates the order, an enforcement action can be filed against them. If the agreement is a court order, it should contain language that would allow for enforcement. Typically, there must be a change in circumstances to request a court order be modified.

Hello, my name is David hatch I'm a Michigan licensed attorney. I have several years of experience with parenting time and custody issues. That appears to be what you're asking about. It would be helpful first to understand more about the situation. Like if there is a divorce decree and find some time order or any other type of order related to the children in the situation you're dealing with. Once I understand the situation I can help you determine a course of action.

Independent Contractor Agreement
Texas
What is the difference between an independent contractor agreement and consulting agreement?
I am looking to hire someone to help my startup and am not sure which agreement I should use.
Forest H.
While the basic structure and framework of a consulting agreement and an independent contractor agreement are very similar, the primary difference is in what services the consultant provides. In a consulting agreement, the consultant is providing their advice for a fee. The guidance will be in the field of their expertise and, usually, includes evaluating an aspect of your business and making suggestions regarding what to do next. An independent contractor, on the other hand, will actually perform the work. The difference is not always a bright line and will vary depending on the circumstances. In some cases, a service provider will evaluate, recommend, and then perform. In that case, they are acting as a consultant first and then an independent contractor. It is also important to properly consider the differences between an independent contractor and an employee.

Asset Purchase Agreement

Who drafts the asset purchase agreement?
I have just put my business up for sale and doing some research on what legal documents will be needed in the future.
Ramsey T.
It depends. In many cases the lawyers representing the seller draft the asset purchase agreement. This is not always the case and at least forty percent (40%) of the deals I have worked on have featured the buyer drafting the asset purchase agreement. Who drafts the agreement may often depend upon who is in a stronger position and/or who has attorneys with the bandwidth to properly support the deal, as envisioned in the relevant term sheet.

Texas
What is the difference between an asset purchase agreement and business purchase agreement?
I am selling my e-commerce store and want to know which one of these I need.
Forest H.
Just like the name suggests, an asset purchase agreement is just that – an agreement to purchase existing assets. This would be the appropriate document to use if you are buying or selling some or all of the assets of a business but not the business itself. For example, if you own a yard service company and you are interested in buying all of the mowers, trucks, and equipment of another yard service business. An asset purchase agreement would give a defined list of the equipment you are purchasing. If you were interested in buying the whole business, including existing contracts, assuming the debt, and retaining the other business’s employees and perhaps even their name, you would want a business purchase agreement.

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.
