A Full-Service Law Firm Serving Clients in Jacksonville, Florida, And Surrounding Communities

Contracts are central to business relationships. When a partner or service provider fails to deliver on their end of an agreement, you may be entitled to recover various types of damages depending on the circumstances, including:

• Compensatory Damages: These are intended to cover the financial losses directly caused by the breach, such as lost profits or additional expenses incurred.
• Consequential Damages: These cover indirect losses that result from the breach, such as the loss of a business opportunity.
• Liquidated Damages: If the contract includes a clause specifying a predetermined amount of damages in case of breach, you may be able to recover that amount.
• Specific Performance: In some cases, you can seek a court order requiring the breaching party to fulfill their obligations under the contract.
• Nominal Damages: Even if no substantial loss occurred, you may be awarded a small amount to recognize that the breach occurred. 

Consulting with a business attorney like myself can help you assess the damages you are entitled to and build a strong case to recover them.

As an executor, you’ll be responsible for managing and distributing your family member’s assets according to their will (or state law if no will exists). Your primary duties include filing the will with the probate court, obtaining legal authority to act on behalf of the estate, identifying and valuing assets such as bank accounts, real estate, and personal property, settling outstanding debts, paying final expenses, filing any required tax returns, making sure any named beneficiaries receive their designated inheritances, and maintaining accurate records of all transactions while providing reports to the court or beneficiaries as needed. This role can get pretty complex and time-consuming; I’m here to help you fulfill your responsibilities and avoid potential disputes.

Mediation is a collaborative process designed to help parties resolve disputes and legal matters without going to court. It involves a neutral third-party mediator who facilitates discussions and helps the parties reach a mutually agreeable solution. Mediation is often faster, less expensive, and less adversarial than litigation, making it a great option for resolving disputes in a constructive, cost-effective way.
