Dallas Breach of Contract Lawyers
In general, contracts form the basis of all business dealings. Many times business disputes go back to the contractual agreement parties made, whether written or oral. When one party is threatening another, fails to perform or disputes a transaction, the first place to start is the contract.
Business Disputes and Contract Issues
If you need legal representation in regard to a business, employment or construction contract, please contact Kleiman Lawrence Baskind Fitzgerald LLP. Our Dallas breach of contract attorneys handle all types of business disputes, including breach of contract. We can help you by reviewing your contract and determining what rights, obligations, defenses or remedies you may have.
Experience has taught our lawyers that certain issues arise again and again in construction, often leading to disputes between the parties involved in the project. The most common of these problems involves payment. Typical causes of payment problems include bidding errors, owner slow-pay or insolvency, subcontractor failure to pay downstream subs and suppliers, change orders, and extra work claims. Payment problems often result in bond claims, liens, trust fund violations, work stoppages, and in the worst cases, lawsuits.
While it is not possible to prevent problems and disputes completely, the risk of disputes can be reduced through the use of well-drafted documents, intelligent risk management, and sound decision-making. From a practical standpoint, certain risks will always exist. David Kleiman and Laird Lawrence can help their clients minimize risks and make informed business decisions about how to proceed. We can review and evaluate contract documents; draft contract documents; advise about rights and remedies; negotiate with owners, sureties, subcontractors, and suppliers; and resolve disputes through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or litigation.
