Does your vendor contract say who pays attorney's fees?
This AI-generated video of Jordan Gerheim walks through three vendor contract clauses to check: venue, attorney's fees and arbitration. A venue clause can set where a dispute is heard.
Pull three contracts off your shelf and ask: Which state does the venue clause name? Who does the fees clause say pays? Who picks the arbitrator, and whose rules apply?
Answering them does not tell you what a particular contract means or predict how a dispute would end.

Proud to sponsor the Downtown Mobile Alliance Annual Meeting for the fourth year in a row.

This year our own Jordan Gerheim had the honor of opening the meeting and calling the room to order. The Alliance brings the whole city together once a year to look at what's been accomplished and hear from great speakers about what's still ahead.

Thank you to the Downtown Mobile Alliance for the invitation, and congratulations on another great meeting.

Many business owners assume that once something has already happened, such as an unfavorable contract, an escalating dispute, or a decision they are second-guessing, it is too late to seek legal guidance.
That is not always the case. But the longer an issue remains unresolved, the more the available options, timing, cost, and practical path forward may change.
This carousel walks through a common pattern of what can happen as an issue sits unresolved.

When a key employee leaves, the business may face more than the loss of one person. Client relationships, pricing information, confidential data, and company access can create risk if the business has not put the right protections in place.
A signed non-compete may be part of the solution, but it is not the complete answer. Swipe through to see what can create exposure, what a written agreement should address, and what options may remain if an employee has already left.

Alabama's new franchise law gives certain franchisees protection when operating on a religious day would conflict with sincerely held religious beliefs.
The details matter. The original agreement, any renewal or amendment, and any expansion agreement can affect whether an exception applies.
If your franchisor has changed ownership, your agreement is being renewed, or you are being asked to accept new operating requirements, it is worth reviewing the terms before you sign.
