Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Catering Services Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Nov 11, 2024

Is it legal for a catering company to charge a cancellation fee if an event is cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances beyond the client's control?

I recently signed a Catering Services Agreement with a catering company for my upcoming wedding. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing pandemic, our wedding venue unexpectedly closed and we had to cancel our event. The catering company is now insisting on charging us a hefty cancellation fee, even though the cancellation was completely beyond our control. I want to know if it is legal for them to do so and if there are any grounds for disputing this fee.

Jeff G.

Answered Nov 22, 2024

The short answer is: you’re probably liable for the fee. The longer answer is: it depends on a lot of variables. First, what does your agreement with the catering company say? Chances are, the catering company says that this type of thing isn’t their fault, and they held the dates for you. So the fee is due. Next, let’s start by acknowledging that it’s 2024 and not 2020. This is important because the timing is possibly important. If the venue closed during the pandemic, and all of this happened DURING the pandemic, you might have a force majeure argument. But if the venue closed in 2020 and the wedding was in 2024… and you failed to find a new venue in that time, then the fee is probably warranted. But overall, without more specifics, the answer is not determinable.

Cloud Services Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Mar 12, 2025

What are the key provisions that should be included in a Cloud Services Agreement?

I am a small business owner planning to migrate my company's data and operations to a cloud service provider. I have been researching various providers and their service agreements, but I am unsure of what specific provisions should be included in a Cloud Services Agreement to protect my business's interests and ensure a smooth transition. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on the essential clauses that should be included in such an agreement.

Jerome L.

Answered Apr 8, 2025

Hi there, A Cloud Services Agreement is a critical document that defines the relationship between your business and the cloud provider. To protect your business’s operations, data, and interests, the agreement should include several essential provisions. Here is a breakdown of the most important clauses to include: Key Provisions in a Cloud Services Agreement: Scope of Services: Clearly define what services will be provided—such as storage, computing, backup, analytics, or software hosting—and whether they include onboarding support or technical assistance. Service Level Agreements (SLAs): This outlines uptime guarantees, performance benchmarks, and penalties or credits if the provider fails to meet them. Look for commitments around downtime, latency, and response times. Data Ownership & Access Rights: Your agreement should state that you retain ownership of your data at all times and have the right to access, retrieve, or delete it when needed. Data Security & Compliance: The provider must implement industry-standard security measures. Make sure the agreement addresses encryption, access controls, data breach notification protocols, and compliance with relevant regulations (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA). Confidentiality: The agreement should include strong provisions to protect your confidential business information and trade secrets. Termination & Data Return: Specify what happens if you end the contract: How will your data be returned? How long will it be retained after termination? Will they securely delete all copies? Disaster Recovery & Backup: Ensure there are clear procedures for data backup, redundancy, and recovery in the event of a system failure or breach. Liability & Indemnification: Limit your liability while ensuring the provider is responsible for issues like data loss, service outages, or unauthorized access caused by their negligence. Pricing & Payment Terms: Include clear details on cost structure, billing frequency, overage charges, and whether pricing can change during the contract term. Subcontracting & Data Location: Ask whether your data will be handled by third-party vendors or stored in specific geographic locations—and make sure you’re comfortable with both. Having a well-drafted Cloud Services Agreement ensures your business transitions to the cloud securely and confidently. If you would like help reviewing or negotiating terms with a provider, I would be happy to assist. Best regards, Jerome Lucas Newell, Esq. Business & Technology Contracts Attorney

Stock Subscription Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Apr 13, 2025

Is a stock subscription agreement legally binding if it was not signed by both parties?

I recently entered into a stock subscription agreement with a company, where I agreed to purchase a certain number of shares in exchange for a specific amount of money. However, I just realized that the agreement was only signed by me and not by the company. I am now concerned about the legality and enforceability of the agreement, and I would like to know if it is still binding even though it was not signed by both parties.

Jerome L.

Answered Apr 15, 2025

This is an important concern, and the enforceability of a stock subscription agreement without both parties' signatures depends on several factors, including the intent of the parties, performance under the agreement, and state law governing the contract. 1. Signatures and Enforceability Generally, for a contract to be legally binding, there must be mutual assent—that is, both parties must agree to the terms. While a signature is the most common way to show assent, a written signature by both parties is not always required to create a binding contract. If you signed the agreement and the company later accepted payment, issued shares, or otherwise began performing under the terms of the agreement, that conduct may be enough to demonstrate acceptance and create a binding agreement—even without the company’s signature. 2. Evidence of Mutual Assent Key things to consider: Did the company accept your payment or issue any form of acknowledgment? Have you received confirmation of share allocation, receipts, or account statements? Was there any written or verbal communication confirming the company’s agreement to the terms? These facts may establish that a contractual relationship exists, even if the formal document was not fully executed. 3. Risk Without Signature If the company has not yet taken any action—and there is no other evidence of acceptance—you may be in a more uncertain position. Without both parties’ signatures or performance, a court may view the agreement as incomplete or non-binding. Next Steps: Review all communication and transaction records for evidence of the company’s intent to be bound. If no performance has occurred, you may want to seek confirmation or a countersignature before proceeding further. If needed, a legal review of the agreement and context can help determine whether the contract is enforceable and what remedies may be available if there’s a dispute. I would be happy to assist with reviewing your agreement and advising you on how best to move forward.

Podcast Contract

Georgia

Asked on Apr 12, 2025

Can a podcast contract restrict the host from starting a new podcast after the termination of the current one?

I am a podcast host who is currently under contract with a podcast network, and I am considering starting a new podcast once my current contract ends. However, I am unsure if the contract I signed prohibits me from doing so, as it contains clauses about exclusivity and non-compete agreements. I would like to know if it is legally permissible for the network to restrict me from starting a new podcast after the termination of the current one, and what steps I can take to ensure my rights are protected in this situation.

Jerome L.

Answered Apr 15, 2025

1. Post-Termination Non-Compete Clauses It is legally possible for a contract to include a post-termination non-compete, but these are subject to limitations. Courts generally look at: Duration (e.g., 6–12 months) Geographic scope (less relevant for digital content but still noted) Scope of restriction (e.g., same topic, format, or competing platforms) If the restriction is overly broad—like prohibiting you from podcasting at all—it may be unenforceable depending on your state’s laws. 2. Exclusivity Clauses (During the Contract) Many podcast contracts prohibit hosting or producing other shows during the term. That’s typical. The issue becomes: does the language extend after the agreement ends? If so, you’ll want to review: Whether it’s a true non-compete How long it lasts If there’s compensation tied to the restriction 3. IP & Ownership Check whether the network claims ownership over: Your host name or likeness The podcast’s brand or concept Past episodes and subscriber lists They may argue that launching a “similar” show is derivative or confusingly similar if they own your original show’s IP. What You Can Do: Review the exact contract language—pay close attention to any clause that mentions exclusivity, non-compete, or “work for hire.” Consult with an attorney (I’d be glad to assist) to evaluate whether the restrictions are enforceable or negotiable. If you're not yet at the end of the agreement, you may also consider negotiating a clean exit or carve-out for future projects. Let me know if you’d like help reviewing your agreement—I can walk you through what’s enforceable, what’s negotiable, and how to position yourself for creative freedom moving forward.
