Breach of Contract
A business contract creates certain obligations to be fulfilled by the parties that entered into the agreement. Under contract law, any failure to fulfill an end of the agreement is known as a “breach” of contract. Our Orlando, Florida business litigation lawyers handles an array of contract disputes. Depending on the specifics of the contract, a breach can occur when:
- A party fails to perform on time
- A party does not perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement
- A party fails to perform at all
When a dispute over a contract arises, the most common method used toward resolution is through lawsuits and the court system. However, lawsuits are not the only option for people and businesses involved in contract disputes. The parties can agree to have a mediator review a contract dispute, or may agree to binding arbitration of a contract dispute.
Breach of Fiduciary Duty
A fiduciary duty is a legal relationship between two or more parties (typically a “fiduciary” and a “beneficiary”). The fiduciary becomes legally responsible for handling the principal’s finances. To ensure a client’s money is not mismanaged, a fiduciary is held to a high standard of ethics. A fiduciary is legally expected to be extremely loyal, must not put their personal interests before the duty, and must not profit from their position as fiduciary, unless the beneficiary consents. Breach of fiduciary duty is not determined by the performance of investments. Instead, actions of the fiduciary are scrutinized to ensure responsible investing practices were followed.

Negligence
Generally, negligence is defined as the breach of a duty owed to the plaintiff which was the direct and proximate cause of damage to the plaintiff. Our Orlando, Florida business litigation lawyers establish negligence by showing that the at-fault party:
- had a legal responsibility to ensure the plaintiff’s safety;
- failed — through conduct, action, or inaction — to fulfill that legal duty; and
- the plaintiff was harmed or injured as a result.
