When a contract has been properly drafted and meets all legal requisites, it carries the weight of the law behind it. When the contract is breached, the party damaged by the violation is entitled to certain remedies under the law.

At Pappalardo & Pappalardo, LLP, we have extensive experience in enforcing our clients’ contractual rights in a wide variety of commercial contexts, including, but not limited to, real estate contracts, the sale of goods, services contracts, employment and consulting agreements, commission agreements, sale of businesses, joint venture agreements, shareholder agreements, loan agreements and promissory notes. Depending on the nature of the contract, you may be entitled to a judgment requiring the other party to the contract to live up to its agreement (also known as specific performance), or to be compensated for the financial damage you suffer as a result of the breach.
