Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Real Property
Real Estate Sale Agreement
Massachusetts
Can a seller back out of a Real Estate Sale Agreement after signing it?
I recently entered into a Real Estate Sale Agreement with a seller to purchase a property. However, a few days after signing the agreement, the seller expressed their desire to back out of the deal. They claim that they received a better offer from another buyer. I'm wondering if the seller has the right to do this, or if I have any legal recourse to enforce the agreement and proceed with the purchase of the property.
Moss S.
It all depends on the contingencies that are contained in the agreement. Some of those contingencies include an inspection, financing, title defects and more. I would have to review the agreement to let you know precisely what rights that you have to terminate the transaction.

Product Licensing Agreement
Arizona
Can a product licensing agreement be terminated if the licensee fails to meet quality standards?
I am a small business owner who recently entered into a product licensing agreement with a larger company to manufacture and sell their branded products. However, I have noticed that the quality of the products being supplied by the licensee is significantly below the agreed-upon standards, which is affecting my reputation and sales. I would like to know if I have the right to terminate the licensing agreement due to the licensee's failure to meet quality standards, and what steps I should take to protect my business interests in this situation.
Randy M.
Yes, a licensing agreement can usually be terminated when the licensee fails to meet required quality standards, but whether you can do so depends on the language of your contract and how you handle the termination process. Courts enforce termination rights strictly, and you’ll need to show the breach is material rather than minor. Why Quality Failures Can Be a Material Breach Licensing agreements are built on protecting a brand. If the licensee’s products don’t meet agreed standards, that failure strikes at the heart of the deal. Poor quality undermines reputation, erodes consumer trust, and damages the goodwill the licensor has worked to build. Because of this, most agreements treat failure to meet quality standards as a material breach that allows the licensor to terminate if the breach isn’t corrected. Reviewing Your Agreement The first step is to examine the actual contract. Focus on provisions that describe: • Quality control obligations: These may reference specific product specifications, quality manuals, or compliance with industry standards. • Termination rights: Look for “for cause” termination language, which often lists quality failures as a trigger. • Notice and cure requirements: Many agreements require that you notify the licensee of the breach and give them a period (commonly 30 to 60 days) to correct it. • Dispute resolution procedures: Some contracts require mediation or arbitration before termination. You’ll need to comply with these provisions precisely. If you don’t, you risk a wrongful termination claim. Building the Record The burden will be on you to show the breach is real and significant. Documentation is key: • Collect product samples, photos, and inspection results that demonstrate the defects. • Keep a record of customer complaints, returns, or negative reviews linked to quality. • Maintain internal notes or reports from employees who’ve identified problems. • Save communications with the licensee where quality concerns were raised. If the licensee disputes termination, this evidence will support your position that the breach was material. Notice of Breach If the contract requires a cure period, you must send a written breach notice. That notice should: • Cite the contract provisions that have been violated. • Describe the quality issues in detail. • Attach or reference supporting evidence if possible. • Specify the time period for cure as outlined in the contract. • Make clear that failure to cure within that time will result in termination. The notice should be sent in the form specified in the contract, for example by certified mail or overnight courier. Termination if the Breach Isn’t Cured If the licensee fails to resolve the problems within the cure period, you may proceed with termination. The termination notice should: • State clearly that the agreement is being terminated under the relevant clause. • Identify the uncured quality failures as the reason. • Provide the effective termination date. • Remind the licensee of post-termination obligations, such as ceasing production and sales of your branded products. Protecting Your Interests After Termination If the licensee continues to sell after termination, you may need to seek an injunction to stop them. If you’ve lost sales or suffered reputational harm, you can consider pursuing damages. At the same time, you’ll want to secure a new licensee or manufacturing partner to maintain supply and protect your brand. In some cases, a carefully managed public statement can help maintain customer confidence. Limitations and Risks Not every defect will justify termination. Courts distinguish between minor issues and breaches that are serious enough to go to the root of the contract. Delay in taking action can also be seen as waiving the right to terminate for those particular breaches. Because wrongful termination can expose you to counterclaims, it’s best to have an attorney review your contract and prepare the necessary notices. Through Contracts Counsel, you can quickly connect with experienced contract attorneys who understand licensing disputes and can guide you through the process with confidence.
Contracts
Settlement Agreement
Connecticut
How are disputes resolved in settlement agreements?
I recently reached a settlement agreement with another party in a dispute, and I am concerned about how disputes would be handled if they arise in the future. I understand that settlement agreements are legally binding contracts, but I am unsure of what the process is for resolving potential disputes that may arise. I would like to know what my rights are and how disputes are typically handled in settlement agreements.
Donya G.
Typically in a settlement agreement there are terms that identify what the parties can do if there is a dispute. If the settlement agreement does not have dispute resolution language, then the parties genrally refer to the contract the parties engaged in, if there was one, and look to the dispute resolution in that document. As a CT licensed contract attorney and arbitrator, I can assist you with dispute resolution. Please contact me if you need further assistance. Donya Gordon
Contracts
Maintenance Services Agreement
New York
What are the key provisions that should be included in a Maintenance Services Agreement?
I am a small business owner who is in the process of hiring a maintenance services provider to handle the upkeep of my office space. I have been asked to draft a Maintenance Services Agreement to outline the terms and conditions of the arrangement, but I am unsure of what provisions are essential to include. I want to ensure that the agreement covers all necessary aspects, such as the scope of work, payment terms, liability and insurance, termination rights, and any other key considerations that may be relevant to protect my interests as the client and ensure a smooth working relationship with the maintenance services provider.
Damien B.
You are on the right track in identifying the key provisions: scope of work, payment terms, liability and insurance, and termination rights. Not all maintenance service agreements are exactly the same. Generally, what I do is look at a few of them. Then I speak with my client about the facts. Afterward, I draft the specific agreement for their purposes, including the appropriate provisions based on the client's specific needs.
Contracts
Employee Confidentiality Agreement
Florida
Can an employer enforce a confidentiality agreement after an employee leaves the company?
I recently left my job at a company that required me to sign a confidentiality agreement. The agreement stated that I cannot disclose any confidential information about the company, even after my employment ends. I am now considering starting my own business in a similar industry and I am wondering if my former employer can enforce this confidentiality agreement and prevent me from using any knowledge or information gained during my employment.
Ralph S.
Agreements often have clauses that survive termination. It would be hard to advise you without seeing the contract. How broad/reasonable the clause is, is there a liquidated damages clause, are they asking for equitable relief, etc. And of course, all these likely involve litigation. And also what is information is confidential as it relates to your new business
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
