What Constitutes A Breach Of Contract?
Most contract disputes stem from an alleged breach of contract. A breach occurs when one party does not meet their obligations under the terms of the agreement.
Breaches can be material or nonmaterial. Material breaches are violations that significantly impact the contract’s purpose, while nonmaterial breaches are violations that do not and generally result in an inconvenience that doesn’t require the termination of the contract. Different legal remedies can be pursued depending on the category of the contract breach.
Whether your business has experienced a breach or is facing contract violation claims, our contract disputes attorney is here to protect the best interests of you and your company.
