Contract Law

Contracts – Transactions and Litigations

Contracts are an important part of your business operation, whether you are procuring equipment, hiring staff, or selling your operation. At Grad, Logan & Klewans, P.C. we assist our clients in generating contracts, and litigating contract disputes when necessary.

Generating Legal Contracts for Vendors and Staff

When setting up the day-to-day operations of your business, it is important to have the protection of written contracts. For example, if you are purchasing equipment from a vendor, you will want the details of the transaction, specifics of the product, and any warranty information in writing. Additionally, when hiring staff you may require employment agreements with “non-compete or restrictive covenant clauses” to protect your business interests. Grad, Logan & Klewans, P.C. can provide business contracts to meet any contractual requirement for your business.

Contract Litigation and Legal Representation

No matter how detailed a signed contract is, there may be a time when an individual or company breaks an agreement. The representation of an experienced contract dispute lawyer is essential. Our attorneys assist clients in developing detailed contracts, and will represent you if a dispute arises regarding contractual obligations.

Restrictive Covenants/Non-Compete Contracts

At Grad, Logan & Klewans, P.C., we have extensive experience in drafting, enforcing, and terminating restrictive covenants—written documentation that an employee or seller of a business will not compete in a certain geographical area. Virginia law differs from Maryland and D.C. law regarding restrictive covenants. In Virginia, if there is a single defect in the covenant, it is voided. Maryland and D.C. law allow for modification.
