What clients usually ask
Should I cancel immediately?
Be cautious. Cancellation can have legal consequences and should be considered against the agreement and the alleged breach.
The usual first steps
- Compare the agreement with the conduct complained of.
- Choose between demand, cure, cancellation, damages or settlement.
- Escalate to proceedings where appropriate.
What to bring
Bring the agreement, court papers, notices, messages, dates and records that show what happened. Preserve original documents and electronic evidence without altering them.
