Breach of contract occurs when one of the parties does not comply with the terms of an agreement. This can lead to conflicts and legal action. Consider situations such as employment contracts, rental agreements or business arrangements.
There is a difference between material and immaterial breach. Material breach involves major agreements, while immaterial breach involves smaller aspects. At SV Investigations, we help you clearly identify these situations and take action.
Breach of contract can have major consequences. If a party fails to honour its agreements, you can:
Claiming damages: For damages suffered.
Rescinding the contract: Both parties are then released from further obligations.
Taking legal action: In severe cases, this may be necessary.
Examples include non-payment of rent, failure to deliver products or early termination of an employment contract. We support you to deal with these properly.

You can first try to resolve the dispute by contacting the other party directly. If this fails, you can take legal action. We are ready to guide and advise you in this.
Minor breaches, also known as immaterial breaches, do not usually entitle you to rescission. Still, you may be able to claim damages. We will help you determine which steps are best suited to your situation and how to proceed.
To prove breach of contract, it is important to keep documentation such as written agreements, e-mails or invoices. We will help you organise this evidence and use it in legal proceedings, if necessary.
The time to take action depends on the type of contract and applicable law. We recommend seeking legal help as soon as possible. Our experts are ready to support and advise you in this regard.
