What is Breach of Contract?

A contract is an agreement offered by one party and accepted by another. Contracts are almost always written documents in Arizona, but it is not impossible to have an entirely oral contract. When a contract is not fulfilled by one or more parties, there is a Breach of Contract. Parties sometimes choose not to fulfill their contractual obligations, and sometimes during the course of business, it can be impossible to do so. What happens after a breach of contract depends on the situation. Usually, the party who breached the contract is liable for damages the breach caused, and bringing the matter to court is sometimes needed to resolve this issue.
