Types of Contract Disputes
Contracts can be established as verbal, written, and implied forms. Sometimes an oral contract is enforceable while other times a contract must be in writing to be valid. In some extenuating circumstances, a contract can simply be implied. Our attorneys are fully qualified to analyze your contractual dispute, determine the key areas of your alleged breach, and guide you through the most effective resolution. A few common key factors in breach of contract are:
Material Breach – One party failed to carry out an essential duty outlined within an existing contract. This failure may have caused damage or harm to the other party and could be a partial or full breach of contract.
Validity – One common point of contention is if the contract is even legal or proper. The parties could have disagreed as to the actual terms of the contract, or one part could have been coerced into accepting terms they did not agree with.
Repudiation (Anticipatory Breach) – Occasionally, one party will clearly indicate that they do not intend to comply with the contract. This can be accomplished through words, their conduct, or through other actions.
The key concept that many Florida courts require from the start of the case is the materiality of the breach. While any breach can cause damage, it must be material for a party to excuse their performance of the contract.
