Contact a local employment law attorney to start with.

i have discussed with a local attorney. he isn't sure???????? however, mentions the added cost if we were to litigate outside of the state...huh?

so, the question i ask myself....should i be looking at the governing state? he wants the case and doens't seem to care....no dissespect to the attorney. however, if i am paying the bills...i care.

any thoughts...anyone?

 

[rhh]

hey folks...please help!

i would at least like an opinion or two. i would think it would be a pretty simple question? i want to finalizie a contract and begin to move on...

thanks in advance...

If an attorney who has read the contract can't answer the question, how can you expect us to?

 

[rhh]

cbg......why would i expect/hope/wish that a stranger on the web might asisst.....because you do NOT have a vested interest.

come on...this can NOT be that difficult! if so, please explain.

somebody for the love of whatever......please resond with an answer.

thanks in advance...

Yes, it is that difficult. We cannot interpret a contract we have not read. We don't know what the terms are; what options it gives you; or what the context of the one and only phrase you provide, is in.

The fact that the contract says the law of a different state will govern, is NOT enough for us to tell you where you will have to ligitate.

As I said, if someone who has read the contract cannot give you an answer, we cannot do so on the basis of a single phrase taken out of context.
