Enforcing contracts and defending breach of contract claims in state and federal court.
When a business partner, vendor, or customer breaks a contract, the financial consequences can be significant. Whether you need to enforce an agreement or defend against a breach claim, our litigators have the experience to protect your interests.
We handle contract disputes in Wayne County Superior Court, NC Business Court, and federal court — from demand letters through trial and appeal.
Depending on the case, we pursue compensatory damages, specific performance (forcing the other side to fulfill the contract), injunctive relief, and attorney's fees where the contract allows.
Written contracts have a 3-year statute of limitations from the date of the breach. Oral contracts also have a 3-year limit. It's important to act promptly — waiting too long can bar your claim entirely.
In NC, attorney's fees are generally not recoverable unless the contract specifically provides for them or a statute allows it. This is one reason why having attorney's fee provisions in your contracts is important.
