You don't need a form..... you need 1. a contract and 2. a lawyer.

Re: Breech Of Contract Form


If your standard contract was written by, or at least modified by an attorney in your area it should include a non-performance clause. That will help you keep at least your outlay on materials and you can charge that against their deposit. It sounds like you need a lawyer to at least look at the forms you lay on the kitchen table with the customer if you are having issues like that.

Re: Breech Of Contract Form


Maybe you can take this form and adapt it to fit your needs.It's the sellers right to recind,which sould be included with the original contract.
Just add the stipulations for not cancelling on time.
But get an attornry to give you all the facts about it's inclusion in your original contract and it's legality.


(Date of Transaction)
      YOU MAY CANCEL THIS TRANSACTION, WITHOUT ANY PENALTY OR OBLIGATION, WITHIN THREE BUSINESS DAYS FROM THE ABOVE DATE.
      IF YOU CANCEL, ANY PROPERTY TRADED IN, ANY PAYMENTS MADE BY YOU UNDER THE CONTRACT OR SALE, AND ANY NEGOTIABLE INSTRUMENT EXECUTED BY YOU WILL BE RETURNED WITHIN TEN BUSINESS DAYS FOLLOWING RECEIPT BY THE SELLER OF YOUR CANCELLATION NOTICE, AND ANY SECURITY INTEREST ARISING OUT OF THE TRANSACTION WILL BE CANCELLED.
      IF YOU CANCEL, YOU MUST MAKE AVAILABLE TO THE SELLER AT YOUR RESIDENCE, IN SUBSTANTIALLY AS GOOD CONDITION AS WHEN RECEIVED, ANY GOODS DELIVERED TO YOU UNDER THIS CONTRACT OR SALE; OR YOU MAY, IF YOU WISH, COMPLY WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS OF THE SELLER REGARDING THE RETURN SHIPMENT OF THE GOODS AT THE SELLER'S EXPENSE AND RISK.
      IF YOU DO MAKE THE GOODS AVAILABLE TO THE SELLER AND THE SELLER DOES NOT PICK THEM UP WITHIN TWENTY DAYS OF THE DATE OF CANCELLATION, YOU MAY RETAIN OR DISPOSE OF THE GOODS WITHOUT ANY FURTHER OBLIGATION. IF YOU FAIL TO MAKE THE GOODS AVAILABLE TO THE SELLER, OR IF YOU AGREE TO RETURN THE GOODS TO THE SELLER AND FAIL TO DO SO, THEN YOU REMAIN LIABLE FOR PERFORMANCE OF ALL OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE CONTRACT.
      TO CANCEL THIS TRANSACTION, MAIL OR DELIVER A SIGNED AND DATED COPY OF THIS CANCELLATION NOTICE OR ANY OTHER WRITTEN NOTICE, OR SEND A TELEGRAM TO (Name of Seller) AT (Address of Seller's Place of Business) NOT LATER THAN MIDNIGHT OF (Date)
      I HEREBY CANCEL THIS TRANSACTION.
(Date)

Re: Breech Of Contract Form


The three day right of recission law in Illinois has both hurt and helped me. It hurts when the clients get cold feet (a.k.a. buyers remorse) and go with a hack instead.
I almost feel bad for them because I know they are going to get nickeled and dimed to death for the things the hacks didn't have the experience to notice.

Re: Breech Of Contract Form


Wow, I took it hard on that one guys!

Sorry, didn't know I was going to take it so hard for some bad grammer. I do admit spelling is not strong point for me.

Any way we do have a contract that states after the 3 days of right of desicion that the down payment is non-refunable. Unless they send a written notice with-in the three days. It is also written in the legal speech but I'm not going to type all that.

Yes, we also have a good lawyer, but he mentioned having a formal letter to send out, as a reminder of that clause, would be good to have.
We can pay him to write one up, but I figured to give it a shot first and just have him give it a ok.

Hope that is better for you guys, I slowed down for this one.
But I'm sure someone will still bust my Sack.

You have a bigger heart than I. I think the hacks end up getting exactly what they are after.

I do not understand . . . why do you guys persist in treating a question as a reason to belittle and talk down to a person asking a question. If you do not know the answer or connot discuss a topic respectfully. . . then SHUT UP!

EDWARDBROS, I believe this is what you are seeking . . . www.legalzoom.com/legalforms/LegalZoom%20Notice%20of%20Breach%20of%20Contract_080602.pdf
