Breach of Contract

Expert Breach of Contract Attorneys in Atlanta, Georgia

Business contracts and legal agreements serve as the foundation of all business operations, clearly defining the responsibilities of all parties involved. However, not all contracts are perfectly drafted, and it can be challenging for any agreement to foresee every possible situation. A breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill their obligations under an enforceable agreement, causing harm to the other party. Since no one enters a contract intending to violate it, understanding the consequences of a breach and knowing what remedies are available can be complex and daunting.

Comprehensive Breach of Contract Remedies

Understanding the various remedies available in breach of contract cases can be empowering. Here are some of the primary remedies that our attorneys can help you pursue:

Compensatory Damages
These cover the economic losses you’ve incurred due to the breach, aiming to put you in the financial position you would have been in had the breach not occurred.

Consequential or Incidental Damages
These are damages that were reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was formed and have resulted from the breach.

Liquidated Damages
These are predefined damages specified within the contract itself, designed to motivate all parties to honor their commitments.

Punitive Damages
Rare but impactful, these damages serve as a monetary punishment for the party that violated the agreement.

Specific Performance
In unique cases, especially involving real estate transactions, the court may order the breaching party to fulfill their contractual obligations.

Other potential remedies include Rescission
Where both parties are excused from performing their part of the contract, and **Reformation**, where the contract is amended to better reflect the original intentions of the parties.
