Charleston Contract Attorneys

West Virginia Contract Law

Contract law is used to make, alter, or break an agreement between two or more parties.  The language in written contracts can be extremely complicated, so you should never sign anything without a qualified attorney reviewing it and, if necessary, explaining it in simple terms.  Yet everyday we sign binding deals including:

 
After you agree to the terms of a contract, it may seem like you have no way out.  Yet there are some actions that will make upholding the contract illegal or impossible for one or both parties.  Agreements can become void in cases of the following:

• Fraud or misrepresentation – When something is accidentally misinterpreted or presented incorrectly to the other party, it is a misrepresentation; when the facts are deliberately kept from someone it is fraud. 

• The Statute of Fraud – Some contracts are argued to be unenforceable unless they are in writing. 

• Duress – When one or more people entering into a contract is forced by threats to agree to a term they might otherwise dispute, they cannot be held accountable.

A competent contract lawyer can help you from becoming trapped in an unfair or illegal contract.   The attorneys of Bland & Bland have the experience to dispute contract terms if you sign an agreement you feel should not be enforced.  We also have helped our clients to develop your will or other documents that can help protect your interests.
