How can contractor claim cost of termination in construction?

It depends on if the construction to be performed was by written contract or by verbal agreement. Written contract can be disputed in a court of law(small claims most likely), provided that you have reciepts to show for your losses, or some estimated log book of hours with proof of what was finished of the job. Verbal agreement: start by hiring an attorney, or representing yourself and getting familiar with the legal system and send an invoice to the customer. Once he doesn't pay, take it to the police......it will most likely end up in small claims court.

Will a notarized letter stand up in civil court even id the other party claims an oral agreement was made?

Yes, a notarized letter can stand up in civil court, as it serves as written evidence of an agreement. However, if the other party claims an oral agreement was made, the court may consider both the notarized document and any credible evidence supporting the existence of the oral agreement. Ultimately, the court will evaluate the evidence presented to determine the validity and enforceability of the agreements. The outcome may depend on the specifics of the case and the jurisdiction's rules regarding contracts.

If my child's father and I signed a notarized agreement that he voluntarily gave up his rights and my husband now wants to adopt my child Will that agreement stand up in court?

No, it will not! Notarized form may support a contract, but will not be good in this case. The only insitution capable of issuing such on order and honoring it is the Court. Keep in mind, in most of the states, the court will iniate an investigation on why the father is giving up his rights.


Is a verbal month to month rental agreement binding in Arkansas?

I think so. You'll strengthen your case if you start to put things in writing. To do that, write a letter to the other party, stating the agreement as it was made verbally and stating what you want. Be accurate because your credibility depends on it. Keep a copy of any letters you send. If they don't argue the facts of the verbal agreement, it gives the appearance they agree. Then if you go to court, you have documentation to back up your claims.


Does a verbal premarital agreement with credible witnesses stand up in court?

Unfortunately in the case of premarital underage sex, it will most likely not hold up especially if the child whose parents are pressing charges is still at the age where the parents can charge even if the child says they did and still do want it. In Missouri that age is 16, under 16 the parents can charge even if the child is the same age as the other and says they were a willing participant.

Does NY have a verbal agreement for court cases?

In New York, verbal agreements can be enforceable in certain situations, but they are often difficult to prove in court due to the lack of written documentation. While some contracts can be oral, specific types, such as those involving real estate or lasting longer than one year, must be in writing to be legally binding under the Statute of Frauds. Therefore, while verbal agreements exist, they carry risks and may not hold up in court without corroborating evidence. It’s generally advisable to have agreements documented in writing for clarity and enforceability.
