Breach of Contract

What is a contract?

A contract is a voluntary agreement between two or more parties — verbal or written. Terms may be implied by law or expressly agreed upon, but either way they determine what is expected of each side.

What is a breach of contract?

A breach occurs when the terms of a contract are broken. If the other party has not met their obligations, you may be entitled to make a civil claim for damages.

Not every situation is clear cut. We investigate the details of your case before advising whether your contract has been breached — and what your best options are.

Suing for breach of contract

As required by the Mediation Act 2017, we first explore all mediation options. If mediation fails, you may be in a position to sue. Most typically, damages are awarded to reflect losses incurred.
