In California, a breach occurs when a party fails to perform a material term of a valid contract without a lawful excuse. The specific requirements can depend on the contract language and the nature of the breach. In many cases, the breach must be substantial enough to cause harm to the other party.
The statute of limitations for written contracts in California is typically four years from the date of breach. For oral contracts, the limit is generally two years. Deadlines can vary based on contract terms and case specifics, so a prompt review is advised.
Remedies include monetary damages intended to cover losses and restore the injured party to the position they would have been in absent the breach. Other remedies include specific performance to compel the breaching party to fulfill the contract, and injunctive relief to prevent ongoing harm.
Bring the contract and any amendments, relevant emails or communications, invoices, payment records, and notes about performance or promises. If you have witnesses or experts, bring their contact information as well.
Often disputes can be resolved without a court, through negotiation or mediation. However, more complex or high-stakes breaches may require formal litigation to obtain relief.
