Parties typically believe that their letter of intent is not a legally enforceable agreement. Instead, they consider the letter to be merely a summary of the major terms of the transaction which are then to be included in a full, and often lengthy, contract which is signed by both parties. Problems arise with letters of intent where the LOI itself contains provisions stating that the parties agree to one thing or another.

The Bottled Business Sense Show provides practical business perspectives that uniquely emphasize both legal and media marketing strategies that protect and insure the longevity of your business.
In order to protect yourself from transactions which occur during the course of your business, every contract you enter into on behalf of your business should be in writing in order to cement the terms of the contract in a form that is less susceptible to dispute. In this show, Bill and Rick discuss how you can be more assured of what you bargained for and therefore make yourself less likely to expose your assets to loss, should a “contrived” dispute arise.

In order to uphold a covenant not to compete, a contract for sale of a business may not circumvent California’s deeply rooted public policy favoring open competition. Otherwise, the non-compete agreement is void. In this show, Bill and Rick discuss the requirement that there be a clear indication that in the sales transaction the parties value or consider goodwill as a component of the sales price, as well as the fact that a covenant not to compete be reasonable in terms of time, activity and territory covered. Likewise, the discussion will distinguish the viability of agreements involving the taking of proprietary material, or “trade secrets,” versus a non-compete agreement.
