VIEW DISPUTES WE HANDLE

Contract disputes are at the heart of our commercial litigation practice.

Typical Clients

Contracts govern the relationships between the different sides to a business or sale/purchase/service deal. When things go south in a business relationship or a deal, the terms of the contract often becomes the focal point. At times, contracts are just oral or by conduct without anything written down. The law offers remedies for those circumstances as well.

At Zayouna, we believe that the law can be a tool to maximize gain and fend off an unwarranted loss.

  • Anybody with a dispute or disagreement with a party concerning a contract
  • An unpaid party under a contract
  • Any party under an agreement with an “arbitration clause”.

We represent individuals, small businesses and corporations, small and large, to resolve the most complex business and contractual disputes in settlement negotiations, mediations, arbitrations and litigation.

We help clients be smart about litigation. Instead of just being brute force litigators, we help our clients identify their objectives and formulate intelligent and pragmatic strategies that we then implement.

“I have known Samiya Ahmad for many years and I can say, without a doubt, that she is an excellent lawyer with fantastic intuition and a genuine desire to promote the well being of her clients. In my opinion this is exactly what you should look for in a lawyer, someone with not just a degree, but rather an individual who has excellent legal skills and is able to apply them in a practical and passionate manner. In a marketplace with so many mixed messages and (unfortunately) unreliable service providers, I am glad that lawyers such as Samiya exist as an exception from the rule.”

“Like most MVA’s, litigation takes a long time. Joe and his team were great in all aspects of our representation, communication, follow ups, replies, and transparency over this extended period of time. Heaven forbid, if I did have another MVA that required a lawyer, this is the team I would choose to protect us.”

JEFF K

SARMAD GORIAL

FAQS

Common Questions About CONTRACT DISPUTES

I relied on certain pre-contractual representations that are not included in my contract. My contract contains an “entire agreement” clause. What is my position?

Generally, the purpose of an “entire agreement” clause is to keep the contract limited to the terms contained in the contract document and to exclude pre-contractual representations from affecting the parties’ contractual positions. That said, your position would depend on how the “entire agreement” clause in your contract is drafted or whether the pre-contractual representation would be seen as a “collateral agreement”.

You can apply the court for an injunction. Provided that your case meets the legal requirements, the court can “injunct” the offending party from continuing with their breach of contract, particularly where your damages cannot be compensated by money.

A lawyer can help you recover money that you are entitled to under a contract. Money recovery cases sometimes get resolved and settled before the matter is even litigated. This can happen through lawyer-to-lawyer communication. For contested cases, you will need to pursue your claim through the court. Keep in mind that the limitation period of 2 years will apply after which you will not be able to pursue your claim through the court.

If you are involved in a contract dispute and require timely, practical and skilled advice, please contact us for an initial consultation.
