Damages for breach typically include compensatory damages to cover direct losses and incidental damages caused by the breach. In some cases, you may recover consequential damages if they were foreseeable at the time the contract was formed. Additionally, you may pursue specific performance if monetary damages are insufficient to protect your interests.
In California, contract lawsuits are subject to statute of limitations that depend on whether the contract is written or oral; the deadline can vary, but it is important to act promptly to preserve your rights. Consulting with an attorney early helps determine the applicable period and avoid bar dates.
Settling a dispute can save time and maintain relationships, while going to court may be necessary when terms are rigid or when remedies require a court order. We help you weigh costs, timelines, and potential outcomes to choose a path that aligns with your business goals.
For a consultation, gather the contract, amendments, emails, invoices, and records of performance and payments. Bring any communications about the breach and your goals for a resolution.
Breach of implied contracts can occur when there is behavior indicating an agreement exists even without a written document. We assess the facts to determine enforceability and potential remedies.

Specific performance is a court order directing a party to fulfill a contract when monetary damages are inadequate. It is most common for unique goods or real property obligations.
