Contract Disputes
Sometimes, however, one party will believe that the other party has failed to live up to the bargain — in other words, that the other side has committed a breach of contract. Such disputes can take many forms, including disagreements over the scope of work, disagreements over the quality of services or goods provided, disagreements over the meaning and effect of contractual provisions, and conflicts over payment terms or amounts. These disputes can arise from one party’s refusal to perform, or from a party’s inability to perform, or from a simple mistake or misunderstanding by one or both parties. And when this happens, the parties may look to the courts to interpret and to enforce their agreement.
