Looking for advice on this situation. Client Added 40% More Work to Fixed-Price Project - Wants No Extra Pay Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Details: I'm in a situation where I need to understand my legal options. Has anyone dealt with something similar?
The enforceability of this clause depends heavily on your state's law and the specific language used. I'd recommend having an attorney review the exact wording before taking action.
Always get contract modifications in writing. Verbal modifications are theoretically enforceable in some situations but nearly impossible to prove. A quick email confirmation costs nothing and saves everything.
The UCC governs sale of goods contracts; common law governs services. The rules are different. Make sure you're looking at the right framework for your situation.
In my experience, most contract disputes settle before trial. The key is having strong documentation of the original agreement and any modifications. Email trails are your best friend.
