If one is working on a contract that pays only a percentage, let's say 15% on all deals brought in and one is then terminated before the deals can be completed,
can one litigate using the argument of Quantum Meruit? Or perhaps another legal argument?
It seems to be the M.O. of the other party to do this, so that the value of the work
is never compensated for. Also, the other party refuses to answer any communication to argue that they should be allowed to complete the deals so that they can both benefit. As everyone knows, 100% of zero is nothing.
Is there a simple resolution to this type of situation?
It seems grossly unfair to work on 'spec' and not be able to receive any consideration and that some of the deals could not be quantified financially.
Therefore, exact compensation could never be realized if it went to trial.
Thank you for any thoughts.
