  1. Contract review and interpretation: We carefully analyze your agreements to identify potential issues, obligations, and risks, ensuring you understand your rights and options before moving forward.
  2. Legal notices and demand letters: A strong demand letter can end a dispute early. We draft clear, enforceable notices to push for compliance or negotiate repayment.
  3. Mediation and arbitration: Many disputes can be settled without litigation. Our attorneys represent you in mediation or arbitration to reach a fair resolution while saving time and costs.

Our attorneys apply Florida contract law to every case we handle, including key statutes like the Statute of Frauds (§ 725.01), which determines when contracts must be in writing, and the five-year deadline for filing breach of written contract claims (§ 95.11(2)(b)). For cases involving the sale of goods, we rely on the Florida Uniform Commercial Code (Chapter 672) to protect your business interests.

Breach of contract issues can cost you clients, revenue, and future deals. We help Tampa business owners resolve issues fast—recovering losses, enforcing rights, and protecting what you’ve built.

Frequently Asked Questions

To sue for breach of contract in Florida, you’ll need to file a civil lawsuit in the appropriate county court—usually where the agreement was made or where the defendant lives or does business. You’ll need a copy of the written contract (if applicable), proof of the breach (like unpaid invoices, emails, or other evidence), and documentation of your damages.

Most Tampa business owners work with a breach of contract attorney to build the case, send a demand letter first, and prepare for court if negotiations fail.

A breach of contract is typically a civil matter, not a criminal offense. However, if the breach involves intentional fraud, forgery, or theft—such as falsifying financial records or knowingly misrepresenting terms—it could trigger criminal charges.

If you’re unsure whether your situation crosses that line, speak with our Tampa business lawyer to evaluate the facts.

Start by consulting a Tampa breach of contract attorney to review your case. If the breach can’t be resolved through a demand letter or negotiation, your attorney will file a complaint in Hillsborough County court.

The lawsuit outlines the contract, the breach, and the damages you’re seeking. From there, your case may proceed through discovery, mediation, or trial depending on the facts and the other party’s response.

In Florida, you generally have five years to file a lawsuit for breach of a written contract and four years for an oral contract. (See Fla. Stat. § 95.11.) Waiting too long can prevent you from recovering losses—even if you have a strong case—so speak with a lawyer as soon as a dispute arises.

In Florida, businesses harmed by a breach of contract may be entitled to compensatory damages (to cover financial losses), consequential damages (for lost profits or operational impact), or in some cases, specific performance (forcing the other party to follow through on the agreement).

At Southron Firm, P.A., we help Tampa businesses calculate the full extent of their losses and pursue the strongest path to recovery.
