What legal rights do I have if someone breaches their contract with me?

If someone breaches their contract with you, then you are entitled to legal remedies including damages. In order to receive such remedies, the breach must be material and directly related to a contractual obligation or promise made by the other party. You may also be able to seek specific performance if monetary damages will not adequately remedy your loss. In general, it is important that any potential breach of contract claim is brought in a timely manner because most jurisdictions have statutes of limitations which place time limits on when claims can be brought for certain types of contracts. Additionally, it is essential that you keep records of all communications related to the contract as well as its performance in order to prove any potential breach at trial. It may also be beneficial for you to consult an attorney who specializes in contracts law so that they can provide guidance on how best pursue a claim against the breaching party and effectively obtain compensation for any losses suffered due to their actions.
