What Is Breach Of Contract?

A breach of contract occurs when one party involved in a contractual agreement fails to fulfill any term of the contract without a legitimate legal excuse. This could range from a minor failure to fulfill certain aspects of the contract to completely neglecting the agreement altogether. Breaches can cause significant damages and losses for the other party involved. It can disrupt business operations, cause financial strain, or result in loss of opportunities.

In such scenarios, you may need a breach of contract lawyer. These legal professionals specialize in contract law and can provide guidance during a contract dispute.

Understanding Unfair Business Practices

We Can Guide You Through the Complexity

Contracts are common in the business world and often lead to contract disputes. When disputes arise, the contract terms regarding breach should govern the resolution. However, not all disputes are easily resolved. There are different types of breaches: anticipatory, fundamental, material, and minor. Each type has its own implications and consequences. Our attorneys can help you determine which type of breach occurred and advise you on the next steps.

This type of breach occurs when one party anticipates or foresees the other’s failure to perform contractual obligations. It arises when a party clearly communicates or indicates their unwillingness or inability to uphold their end of the deal due to the anticipated non-performance. This breach typically happens when there is a lack of confidence in the other party’s ability to fulfill their obligations and can have significant legal implications.

This type of breach, known as a total or actual breach, occurs when one party completely fails to provide any performance as required by the agreement. It can also happen when a party fails to deliver an essential element of the contract, such as a crucial product or service. In either case, a total breach can have significant legal and financial implications for the non-breaching party.

A material breach of contract happens when one party doesn’t receive what was explicitly promised in the agreement or receives a completely different product than what was initially specified. This failure can occur due to various reasons, such as insufficient time to complete the project or a failure to perform the work as outlined, regardless of any time constraints or other obligations mentioned in the contract.

A minor breach of contract, also referred to as a partial breach of contract or an immaterial breach of contract, pertains to failures in contract fulfillment that are of lesser significance. These failures typically involve the deliverable itself. While the receiving party does receive the product or service, there may be delays or minor omissions. To seek damages, the receiving party must demonstrate that the breach of contract led to a financial loss of some nature.

It’s Important To Know Your Rights

In the world of business, contracts are how things get done. Through collaboration and agreement, we move ourselves toward our goals. However, not all agreements are without flaws. Poor drafting, ambiguous terms, and changing circumstances often lead to disputes between two or more parties. When this happens, it’s critical to know your rights and the possible remedies so that your business can move forward as quickly and smoothly as possible.

At Miller Law Group, PLLC, in Raleigh, we’re here to help you navigate the process of resolving complicated breach of contract disputes. Most often disputes arise from failure to pay, failure to perform a service, failure to deliver goods, failure to deliver a certain quality of goods or services, or failure to perform within a given timeframe.

When these breaches occur, the wronged party has a right to be made whole. Damages for a breach often vary. Many times, the contract itself defines which remedy or remedies the non-breaching party may pursue, and legal action is often the best or the only way to make sure the non-breaching party is made whole. Legal actions can include monetary damages that are sufficient to compensate a party for all the relevant ways in which he or she was harmed by a breach, and specific performance can force the breaching party to fulfill the contract as originally agreed upon.

The lawyers at Miller Law Group have extensive experience representing both individuals and businesses with regard to breach of contract disputes. Contract law can be complicated, and it is important to seek an experienced and knowledgeable attorney to evaluate a breach of contract claim to determine the likelihood of success, the merits, and whether the potential remedy will outweigh the costs of bringing such an action.
