What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CO
WE own a small wedding related business. Several months ago a potential client paid a $100 deposit to retain our services. We emailed her a contract and asked her to sign and return. A month before her wedding date, we had realized that she had not yet returned the contract. We began to contact her by phone and email to notify her that we needed the contract to perform services. She has claimed that she returned the contract, but we have not received it. We gave her our email and fax number so that she had many ways to get it back to us quickly. She keeps telling us she is going to send it, but we have heard that story before. Are we obligated to perform the service based on the intent of the $100 deposit?
