A business deal gone wrong can cost you everything: your money, your time, and your peace of mind. Contract disputes happen every day in Houston. A partner stops holding up their end of the deal. A vendor delivers late or not at all. A client refuses to pay. A contractor walks off the job halfway through. These situations are frustrating, stressful, and financially damaging.
At the Law Office of Jeffrey D. Sasser, we understand that your business cannot afford to wait. Whether you are a small business owner, an independent contractor, or a large company, a broken contract is a serious legal matter. Attorney Sasser brings over 30 years of courtroom experience and a sharp understanding of Texas contract law to every dispute we handle. We work quickly, strategically, and aggressively to protect your bottom line and get you the outcome you deserve.
A breach of contract arises where a party is unable to keep their legal obligation towards a signed contract. This comprises non-payment, defaulting on the deadline, poor quality work or giving up the entire deal. The Texas legislation permits the aggrieved party to seek damages, specific performance or cancellation of the contract in accordance with the circumstances.
Not always. In Texas, verbal contracts are legally binding provided that they are under certain conditions. However, written contracts can be proved much easier before the court. In case you think your verbal agreement was violated, Attorney Sasser will be able to consider the specifics of your case and recommend the most appropriate course of action.
The law on statute of limitations of written contract breach in Texas is four years, based on the breach date. In case of verbal contracts, it is two years. You need to do it as soon as possible and delaying will have the effect of permanently damaging your chances of recovering damages.
Not necessarily. Contract disputes are also settled out of court by a large percentage through negotiation or mediation. Attorney Sasser would never want you to waste time and money on any settlement options before he does that. But in the event that the other party is not willing to give in, we will be more than happy to take your case to court and do battle until we get the results that you rightfully deserve.
