Breach of Contract

Disputes often arise when parties disagree about how the terms of the contract should be interpreted. A breach of contract occurs when a party does not fulfill its obligations under the contract. Litigation is the legal remedy for breach of contract. The party harmed by the breach may file a lawsuit for damages or a court order of specific performance.

In order to claim more than nominal damages, the party harmed by the breach must be able to prove measurable losses. The damages that may be awarded will depend on the amount of money that was lost as a result of the other party’s failure to adhere to their obligations. Although certain verbal contracts can be as binding as written contracts, they are more challenging to litigate because these cases hinge on witness testimony.

Mr. Brennan also defends clients accused of breach of contract. There are a myriad of possible defenses for this –the contract may have been the product of duress, the terms may be ambiguous, or the person who signed the contract may not have had the authority to enter into the agreement. Mr. Brennan can carefully review all aspects of your situation to determine the best action.
