A breach means a party did not perform as promised under the contract, which may trigger remedies. The remedy depends on the breach type, damages suffered, and the contract terms. A lawyer can help you evaluate options and next steps. The goal is to restore your position or obtain compensation.
California generally allows a four year statute of limitations for written contracts and two years for oral agreements. The exact timeline depends on the contract and facts. Cases can take months to years depending on complexity, court schedules, and whether disputes settle early.
