You need to know where you stand before taking the next step
A contract dispute can become difficult when both sides interpret the agreement differently.
You may be dealing with:
- Work or services that were not delivered as agreed
- Payment that has not been made
- Goods or services that do not match the contract
- Missed deadlines or performance failures
- A contract that has been ended early
- A disagreement about what each side agreed to do
- Financial loss caused by an alleged breach
- A claim or legal threat from the other party
You may be asking:
“Is it worth taking legal action?”
“What are our options?”
“Can we recover the money we are owed?”
“Does the contract support our position?”
Before taking action, the contract, evidence and commercial position need to be reviewed.
These questions need a practical review. The answer depends on the facts, contract, evidence, value and commercial reason to proceed.
