Contracts form the bedrock of modern commerce. When you sign a legal agreement, you promise to act in good faith and fulfill your contractual obligations so long as the other party does the same. The contract provides you with a clear explanation of your new rights and obligations and the evidence to hold the other party accountable if they act in bad faith.
Unfortunately, bad faith is more common than you might think. Business partners may attempt to avoid fulfilling their obligations, customers may try not to pay you, or vendors might accuse you of failing to uphold the agreement. When these issues arise, it’s time to seek experienced legal counsel.
