Business Losses & Contract Disputes

business loss | contract lawThe current competitive business environment has many companies struggling to reach their goals. This results in great motivation to bend, or outright, break the law in order to succeed. Enforceable contracts are breached regularly with expectation the injured party will not take legal action. Some companies employ deceptive business practices, encourage breach of contract, or take calculated measures to interfere with contracts. The media reports daily on companies who compete unfairly disregarding laws enacted to protect you.

There are laws which provide legal recourse for those injured by unfair and deceptive business practices. Clore Law Group accepts these cases on a contingency basis, so it will not cost you to seek reparation. An experienced attorney is needed to determine the legal remedies available to a victim of fraud, tortious interference of contract, fiduciary duty, business disparagement or claims under the Deceptive Trade Practices Act. These claims are commonly referred to as “business tort” claims and can result in significant punitive damages, as well as compensatory damages and lost interest.

Breach of Contract

When a contract dispute arises and your attempts at resolution fail, you can file a law suit to enforce the contract. When claim values are smaller, you may be able to use “small claims” court.the issue or have a mediator/arbitrator review a contract dispute. The later two options are known as “alternative dispute resolution.”

When the value of the contract in dispute is larger, a formal litigation process that can lead to a jury trial is often needed. Regardless of the chosen remedy for a breach of contract, the non-breaching party suffering the business loss should be entitled to some kind of remedy under the law.
