When a contract is created, the expectation is that all parties will uphold their obligations. When one party breaks the legal agreement, it can lead to major losses and cause other damage to a business or individual if not addressed immediately. In these situations, the harmed party can sue to attempt to enforce the promise or be paid for the resulting damage if the law allows.

What Are The Remedies For Breach Of Contract?
There are several ways to address the breach of a contract. The details of your specific situation will help determine what makes the most sense in your case. Possible remedies for breach of contract are:
- Damages: Damages may involve financial compensation or another form of payment. You may seek damages to help you return to the financial standing you enjoyed before the breach of contract. You may also seek punitive damages in some situations.
- Cancellation and restitution: This solution involves canceling the contract altogether and seeking compensation to be made whole.
- Specific performance: If seeking damages would not fully remedy the situation, you may seek a court order that forces the noncomplying party to comply with the terms of the contract.
Attorney David A. Wijewickrama is prepared to fight for a solution that best meets your needs. He will explain the pros and cons of each possible option, so you have the information you need to make the right decision. If a fair agreement is not being reached through negotiations, he will aggressively pursue a favorable outcome at trial.
