Common Types Of Business Contracts We Handle

Business contracts are essential tools for defining the rights and obligations of parties engaged in a commercial relationship. Our team is equipped to handle disputes involving:

Sales Contracts: These agreements govern the sale of goods and services, outlining terms like price, delivery, and payment conditions.
Employment Contracts: These documents establish the terms of employment between an employer and an employee, including salary, job responsibilities, and benefits.
Partnership Agreements: Designed to clarify the roles, contributions, and profit distribution among business partners, these contracts are crucial for preventing disputes.
Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs): These contracts protect sensitive information shared between parties, ensuring confidentiality in various business dealings.
Lease Agreements: These contracts outline the terms for renting property or equipment, including rental amounts, duration, and responsibilities for maintenance.
Service Agreements: Typically used when one party provides services to another, these contracts specify the nature of the services, fees, and performance expectations.
Franchise Agreements: These legally binding contracts define the relationship between a franchisor and franchisee, detailing fees, training, and operational standards.

Understanding The Basics Of Business Contract

Every enforceable business contract must include the following six key elements:

Offer and Acceptance:

There must be an offer by one party and acceptance by the other.
Both parties must agree to the same terms and conditions.

Consent of Free Will:

Neither party can be coerced or forced into signing the contract.
Both parties must voluntarily agree to the terms.

Consideration:

Something of value must be exchanged between both parties (e.g., money, items, or services).
The exchange is crucial; otherwise, it is considered a gift, not a contract.

Competent Parties:

Both parties must be of sound mind.
This means they cannot be minors, under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or have mental impairments at the time of signing.

Legality:

The contract’s purpose must be legal.
Contracts for illegal activities, such as drug trafficking or hiring a hitman, are not enforceable.

What You Need to Know About Breach Of Contract

A breach of contract occurs when one party fails to uphold their end of an agreement. Common types include:

Material Breach: A severe violation undermining the purpose of the contract.
Minor Breach: A partial failure to meet terms, causing minimal impact.
Actual Breach: When a party fails to deliver obligations outright.
Anticipatory Breach: When one party notifies the other they won’t fulfill obligations.

Remedies For Breach Of Contract

If you’ve experienced a breach, you have several legal remedies:

Damages: Financial compensation for losses suffered.
Specific Performance: Compelling the breaching party to fulfill their obligations.
Cancellation and Restitution: Ending the contract and restoring your position.

The Importance Of Timely Action In Nevada

Nevada law limits the time to file breach of contract claims. For written contracts, the statute of limitations is six years; for oral contracts, it’s four years. Missing these deadlines could forfeit your rights. Contact us immediately to protect your business interests.
