However, if the contract is verbal, the litigation becomes a lot more complex. At least in Texas, not all legally binding contracts have to be in writing, so it is possible to sue for breach of verbal contract.<\/p>\n<p>In these cases, the burden of proof will be on the party that is suing, and they will have to prove the guilt of the party that they claim breached the verbal contract. You will have to prove the existence of the offer, acceptance of the offer, and other stages of the contract. If the relevant party didn\u2019t know that their agreement was legally binding, it is unlikely to be successful.<\/p>\n<p>Verbal contract cases can be highly complex, making skilled legal representation essential. Colby Lewis is well-versed in commercial litigation and will work diligently to address your needs in the courtroom, so you can focus on what matters most.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I Sue a Financial Advisor?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve given money to a financial advisor to invest, and your money was lost, you may have legal recourse. It will need to be proved that your financial advisor breached a contract, breached their fiduciary duty, or was negligent. There are several other situations that also warrant commercial litigation.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve lost money, that doesn\u2019t always mean that you\u2019ll be able to win a court case. However, a skillful legal team can help you wade through the process, and get you maximum recoveries if you do have a case.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; module_class=&#8221;flip-spacing&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/clewislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Colby-Lewis-Image-3.jpg&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Colby Lewis Image (3)&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; filter_brightness=&#8221;84%&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|4px|4px|4px|4px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#FFFFFF&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||50px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|5%|3%|5%|false|true&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;off|||4px|4px&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1080px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is a Non-Compete Clause and How Can I Deal with it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Non-compete clauses are commonly found in employment contracts. These types of clauses state that you won\u2019t work for one of your employer\u2019s competitors for a specified period of time.<\/p>\n<p>Courts will not honor non-compete clauses that are deemed to be unreasonable or too limiting on your future employment prospects. Legally, the non-compete clause must be in place to protect \u201clegitimate business interests\u201d. Otherwise, they are likely to not be respected.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s very important to look at your non-compete clause in detail when you sign a contract. Make sure to read your contract in detail and let your employer know if you have some issue with the non-compete clause before you sign, so you don\u2019t have to deal with any difficulties later on.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Footer&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#1c306e&#8221; use_background_color_gradient=&#8221;on&#8221; background_color_gradient_stops=&#8221;#1c306e 67%|#0e1733 67%&#8221; background_enable_image=&#8221;off&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;bottom_right&#8221; background_blend=&#8221;soft-light&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; background_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; background_enable_image_tablet=&#8221;off&#8221; global_module=&#8221;226360&#8243; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; z_index=&#8221;500&#8243; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;||-24%||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;||-45%||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Avenir Light||||||||&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Avenir Heavy||||||||&#8221; header_3_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_3_font_size=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; background_layout=&#8221;dark&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1080px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Contact Colby Now<\/h3>\n<p>Seriously injured?

You will have to prove the existence of the offer, acceptance of the offer, and other stages of the contract. If the relevant party didn\u2019t know that their agreement was legally binding, it is unlikely to be successful.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Because verbal contract cases are so complex and variable, it\u2019s important that you seek legal representation from experts in the field. Colby Lewis is an expert in all matters related to commercial litigation, so you can focus on your life while he gets your needs met in the courtroom.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=\"list-secondary-square\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" _module_preset=\"default\" header_3_text_color=\"#f26419\" custom_padding=\"1%||1%||true|false\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<ul style=\"padding-bottom: 0px!important;\">\r\n<li>\r\n<h3>Can I Sue a Financial Advisor?<\/h3>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">If you\u2019ve given money to a financial advisor to invest, and your money was lost, you may have legal recourse. It will need to be proved that your financial advisor breached a contract, breached their fiduciary duty, or was negligent. There are several other situations that also warrant commercial litigation.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">If you\u2019ve lost money, that doesn\u2019t always mean that you\u2019ll be able to win a court case.

These types of clauses state that you won\u2019t work for one of your employer\u2019s competitors for a specified period of time.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Courts will not honor non-compete clauses that are deemed to be unreasonable or too limiting on your future employment prospects. Legally, the non-compete clause must be in place to protect \u201clegitimate business interests\u201d. Otherwise, they are likely to not be respected.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">It\u2019s very important to look at your non-compete clause in detail when you sign a contract. Make sure to read your contract in detail and let your employer know if you have some issue with the non-compete clause before you sign, so you don\u2019t have to deal with any difficulties later on.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-565","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.8 (Yoast SEO v27.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Commercial Litigation FAQ - The Law Offices of Colby Lewis<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/clewislaw.com\/es\/common-questions\/commercial-litigation-faq\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_MX\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Commercial Litigation FAQ\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Law Offices of Colby LewisCommercial Litigation FAQCommercial litigation is a very complex area, with many types of possible cases.
