Proven Lake Charles Lawyers Represent Clients in Contract Matters

Knowledgeable Louisiana attorneys assist with all types of obligations

Effective contract negotiation and enforcement is essential to a business’s success regardless of its size or the industry in which it operates. Stockwell, Sievert, Viccellio, Clements & Shaddock, L.L.P. in Lake Charles delivers comprehensive counsel relating to all types of contracts, known as obligations within Louisiana law. Whether you’re working to complete a deal, have a question regarding the interpretation of specific language or are engaged in a breach of contract dispute, our Louisiana attorneys have the skill and experience to protect your interests.

Respected firm handles the creation and implementation of agreements

Whether you’re involved in a commercial transaction, seeking to craft a noncompete pact to safeguard company assets or looking to develop a buy-sell agreement among owners as part of the business formation process, we handle any contract-related need you have, including:

• Drafting — Our firm prepares thorough contracts for real estate sales, financial matters, construction projects, franchise agreements and any other type of concern. No matter how complex the contract terms might be, we clearly explain the rights and duties of obligors and obligees.
• Negotiation — Our attorneys are also members of the Southwest Louisiana business community who understand both the letter of the law and the practical considerations that build or prevent consensus. We are skillful negotiators for our clients no matter what the proposed contract entails.
• Implementation — Negotiating favorable contract terms will not benefit you if the agreement has a flaw that prevents its enforcement in court. For documents that we prepare, as well as previously existing obligations, we deliver sound counsel on how you can hold a noncompliant party to their commitment.

Whatever your particular objectives might be when you require an attorney to help draft, review or negotiate a contract, we offer knowledgeable counsel so that you have a full grasp of the pertinent issues and can make a wise choice on how to proceed.

Skillful advocates represent clients during breach of contract actions

When a dispute arises over the performance of an agreement, our firm represents obligors and obligees in breach of contract cases. After thoroughly reviewing the facts of the situation and the relevant contract language, we clearly outline the options clients have in matters stemming from shareholder disputes, fraud allegations and other types of claims. This includes providing effective representation when a party is accused of failing to honor the terms of a secondary agreement, such as a lease, mortgage or loan document related to a real estate transaction. 

Accomplished litigators protect parties when contract disputes arise

Often, conflicts over contract performance can be resolved by referring to a liquidated damages clause or some other section of the agreement. We work diligently to help clients achieve a favorable outcome as promptly and efficiently as possible. If that type of solution is not possible, our accomplished litigators pursue rescission, restitution or another form of appropriate relief in court. Even in cases where an obligation was oral or implied rather than written down, our knowledgeable attorneys can advise you on what options might be available to you.
