Do I need a written contract for it to be enforceable?

Not always. Some agreements may still be enforceable even if they were partly verbal, depending on the situation and evidence available. A consultation can help clarify what applies to your matter.

What if the other party isn’t responding?

Lack of response is common in contract disputes, especially when money is involved. A consultation can help you understand practical next steps and how disputes are often handled.

Can a demand letter help resolve the issue?

In some cases, a well-structured demand letter can help clarify the problem and encourage resolution. A consultation can help determine whether that approach fits your situation.

How long do contract disputes take to resolve?

Timelines vary depending on the facts, documents, and how the other party responds. A consultation can help you understand likely next steps and realistic expectations.

Can you guarantee I will recover the money I’m owed?

No lawyer can guarantee an outcome. What we can do is assess your matter, explain realistic options, and guide you through a practical strategy.
