What Is Considered a Breach of Contract?

When two parties enter into a business contract, both agree to certain obligations when they sign the document. If one of the parties fails to fulfill the terms and requirements of the agreement, then the contract has been breached.

Examples of breach of contract include:

• Failure to perform services within the agreed-upon timeframe
• Failure to perform service as described in the contract
• Failure to pay the amount agreed upon
• Interfering with one party’s ability to fulfill the terms of the contract

How Do I Prove a Breach of Contract?

In order to successfully prove that a contract has been breached by another party, you need to prove the following:

• The written agreement is valid and includes essential components like an offer, acceptance, and mutual consent of all the involved parties.
• The exact ways the defendant breached to terms of the contract
• The exact ways the plaintiff upheld their terms of the agreement
• That the plaintiff provided adequate notice to the defendant regarding the breach of contract

Common causes of contract disputes include:

• Mistakes and errors in the terms of the contract
