A breach of contract can disrupt plans, strain finances, and impact the well-being of the affected party.

Achieving Remedies When A Contract Has Been Breached
There are a number of different remedies that may be in order if you have been harmed by one party’s breach of contract, including:
- Specific Performance: If you seek to compel the breaching party to fulfill their contractual obligations, such as completing a service or sale as agreed, specific performance may be pursued through legal action.
- Compensatory Damages: Compensatory damages aim to compensate the injured party for financial losses incurred due to the breach of contract. This remedy seeks to restore the injured party to the position they would have been in had the breach not occurred.
- Punitive Damages: Punitive damages are intended to punish the breaching party for their wrongful actions. Unlike compensatory damages, punitive damages are not directly tied to the financial losses suffered but are imposed as a form of punishment and deterrent.
- Liquidated Damages: Contracts often include provisions for liquidated damages, which are predetermined damages specified within the contract. These damages serve as a deterrent against breaching the agreement and provide a clear remedy for contract violations.
- Consequential Damages: Consequential damages may be awarded to a party as a result of the indirect losses or damages incurred due to the breach of contract. These damages go beyond direct financial losses and account for additional, foreseeable consequences of the breach.
