Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Lease Purchase Agreement

New York

Asked on Jan 22, 2025

What are the legal implications of a Lease Purchase Agreement?

I am currently considering entering into a Lease Purchase Agreement for a property, where I will be leasing the property for a specific period of time with the option to purchase it at the end of the lease term. I would like to understand the legal implications of this type of agreement, including any potential risks or obligations that I should be aware of before proceeding with the agreement.

Damien B.

Answered Jan 23, 2025

Hello! The most significant risk is missing or being late on a payment, which could potentially breach the purchase agreement. Another risk is that the current owner usurps the deal or attempts to sell the property to someone else. At least, these are some of the practical risks. An attorney should review the written Lease Purchase agreement to outline the potential risks and recommend possible edits.

Coaching Agreement

New York

Asked on Jan 27, 2025

Can a coaching agreement be terminated if the coach fails to meet the agreed-upon objectives?

I entered into a coaching agreement with a professional coach to help me improve my business skills and achieve specific objectives within a certain timeframe. However, after several sessions, it is becoming apparent that the coach is not adequately addressing my needs and failing to help me make progress towards my goals. Can I terminate the coaching agreement and seek a refund or another coach who can better meet my needs?

Damien B.

Answered Jan 27, 2025

In this situation, both parties agreeing to terminate the contract is best because of your dissatisfaction. The coach's failure to provide adequate advice could be difficult to prove. Conversely, the coach would have to prove they provided adequate services. So, a mutual agreement to terminate the agreement is preferable. You could attempt to negotiate a partial reimbursement.

Ground Lease

New York

Asked on Jan 29, 2025

Can a ground lease be terminated early by the lessor if the lessee violates a non-monetary covenant?

I am currently in a ground lease agreement where I am the lessee, and I recently received a notice from the lessor stating that they intend to terminate the lease due to a violation of a non-monetary covenant. The specific covenant in question pertains to the maintenance and upkeep of the property. I have been diligently maintaining the property, but there may have been some minor lapses in the past. I would like to know if the lessor has the legal right to terminate the ground lease early based on a non-monetary covenant violation, and what options I have to defend against this termination.

Damien B.

Answered Jan 30, 2025

Hello: The success of a claim of breach of the agreement depends on whether the alleged violation of the specific non-monetary covenant is material and whether there is a right to cure it. If it is a minor or curable breach, and the lessee can cure it, then the lessee may have defenses to an alleged breach claim.

Cloud Services Agreement

New York

Asked on Dec 12, 2024

Is it necessary to have a Cloud Services Agreement in place when using cloud services?

I am a small business owner who is considering transitioning my company's data storage and software applications to the cloud. I have heard about the importance of having a Cloud Services Agreement in place with the cloud service provider, but I am unsure if it is necessary for my specific situation. I want to understand the purpose and benefits of having such an agreement, as well as any potential risks or legal considerations involved in using cloud services without a formal agreement.

Damien B.

Answered Dec 14, 2024

Hello! My name is Damien Bosco. My law office is located in Long Island City across from Manhattan. Having a Cloud Services Agreement (CSA) in place is a good idea when transitioning your company’s data storage and software applications to the cloud. The reason is that a CSA outlines the terms and conditions governing your relationship with the cloud service provider, helping to protect your business interests. Without an agreement, it may be unclear who is responsible for data loss, breaches, or downtime. In the absence of an agreement, you may have no legal framework to resolve disputes, which can leave you vulnerable. If you have a follow-up question or would like a consultation or further legal services, you can let me know. There should be a button on your page or app that allows you to request a proposal from me specifically for the legal service you request. Best regards.
