In the business community, contracts are commonly used and generally “understood,” but what does it mean when a “breach of contract” has occurred? As contracts are the lifeblood of business agreements, it’s crucial to understand them; without them, business agreements may go unfulfilled. Breaches are one the most common reasons people file lawsuits in business law. As such, know your rights in a business agreement. If you’ve experienced a situation where someone did not uphold their end of a business agreement, you may experience a frustrating situation, but the good news is that you may not be at a total loss if you take the appropriate legal action. 
What is a Breach of Contract?
A breach of contract takes place when a contract term, whether in writing or verbally made, is not fulfilled. Examples include, payment not made or not made in full, time-frame for delivery not met, etc. The list is essentially endless, as it’s simply any time an agreement is not fulfilled.
