Because our Orlando contract litigation attorneys work on a contingency-fee basis, our clients are not burdened with hourly billing rates and monthly legal bills.

What Legal Remedies Are Available in an Orlando Breach of Contract Lawsuit?
In most cases, our attorneys pursue claims for money damages or equitable relief on behalf of our clients. Equitable relief is an order from a court requiring a person or company to act or refrain from acting in a certain way.
Monetary Damages
Liquidated Damages: Some contracts contain a liquidated damages provision, which provides a specific, predetermined amount of money that a court can award to the aggrieved party if the contract has been breached. Clauses for liquidated damages are common in real estate and construction contracts, as well as contracts for the sale or lease of business equipment.
Compensatory Damages: Compensatory damages are intended to “make the plaintiff whole” and provide monetary relief

representing the benefits the plaintiff would have received had the contract not been breached. Compensatory damages may include consequential damages, which are intended to provide compensation for any indirect damages caused by the breach of contract. For example, our attorneys may be able to recover lost profits caused by another party’s failure to perform its obligations under a contract.
In general, liquidated damages provisions in contracts are enforceable in Florida courts if: 1) the damages resulting from the breach are not readily ascertainable; and 2) the amount of liquidated damages provided under the contract is not grossly disproportionate to the actual damages incurred.
What are Attorneys Fees and Costs? The fees and costs of the litigation may be recoverable if such recovery is expressly provided for under the terms of the contract.
Equitable Remedies in Breach of Contract Cases
Specific Performance: In some cases, our attorneys can also seek an order from the judge requiring “specific performance” in a breach of contact lawsuit. If a court orders specific performance, the breaching party is required to fulfill its obligations under the terms of the contract. Specific performance may be granted in cases where monetary damages would not adequately compensate the non-breaching party. For example, if a contract is for the sale of unique goods that cannot be obtained from another seller, a court may issue an order requiring the breaching party to perform under the terms of the contract and deliver the unique goods.
Rescission: Rescission is an equitable remedy that voids the contract. When a judge grants rescission, both sides are generally excused from any further performance under the contact. In addition, any money that had been remitted under the contract is usually returned.
