Contracts are the promises that keep a business running. When one party fails to honor those promises, the results can reach far beyond the immediate disagreement—impacting supply chains, project schedules, and client relationships. In a business community as active as McKinney’s, where manufacturing, technology, construction, and professional services all thrive, contract disputes can quickly become complex and costly.
If you are dealing with a broken agreement, or if you have been accused of breaching a contract, Roquemore Skiersi can help. Our practice is devoted to business and commercial litigation. We represent McKinney business owners and companies at every stage of a dispute—from early negotiations and mediation to courtroom trials and arbitration hearings. Every matter we handle is prepared carefully and strategically, because readiness often determines results.
Our attorneys have represented clients in Collin County courts and across Texas in disputes involving supply contracts, partnership breakdowns, and failed transactions. We understand how to prove the core elements of a breach of contract claim, calculate damages, and guide clients toward favorable outcomes that protect their financial and reputational interests.
When your business is facing a legal dispute, you need counsel who does more than read contracts—you need lawyers who know how to enforce them. Many firms focus on transactional work, but our experience lies in dispute resolution and litigation. We have successfully represented companies before judges, juries, and arbitration panels throughout Texas.
Litigation experience matters, even when most cases end in settlement. Every breach of contract claim moves through motions, hearings, discovery, and negotiations that require both strategic foresight and trial readiness. We use our courtroom experience to strengthen your position long before a trial date is set. That preparation often leads to faster and better settlements, saving you time, cost, and disruption.
Contracts are meant to create stability and predictability, but when a counterparty fails to perform, prompt action is critical. Our McKinney breach of contract attorneys represent businesses across industries in disputes such as:.
No matter the issue, we evaluate your contract, identify leverage points, and build a strategy that protects your business while controlling risk.
A breach of contract claim is a legal action with specific elements that must be proven. In Texas, the party bringing the claim must show that a valid contract existed, that it performed or had a valid excuse for not performing, that the other party failed to perform, and that the failure caused damages. Proving each element requires careful reading of the agreement, an understanding of the facts on the ground, and evidence that links the breach to measurable losses.
Under Texas law, a breach occurs when one party fails to perform as the contract requires. This might mean missing a payment deadline, failing to deliver goods, performing substandard work, or refusing to perform altogether. To succeed in a breach of contract claim, the plaintiff must prove that:
Each of these elements must be supported by evidence. Our firm works with clients to gather the documentation, communications, and financial records that demonstrate performance and quantify loss.
Texas law provides several remedies when a contract is broken. The right remedy depends on the facts of the case and the specific terms of the agreement.
For sales of goods, the Texas Uniform Commercial Code offers additional remedies, allowing buyers to reject defective products or revoke acceptance when hidden defects later appear. Acting quickly under these provisions helps limit losses and strengthen your position in litigation.
Although trial is sometimes necessary, most breach of contract cases resolve beforehand through negotiation, mediation, or summary judgment. However, the quality of trial preparation often determines the quality of settlement. When opposing counsel sees that a case is well-prepared—with organized evidence, clear witness testimony, and sound legal arguments—they are more likely to resolve the matter on fair terms.
Our approach combines legal skill with practical understanding. We learn your goals, analyze the contract language, assess potential defenses, and determine whether litigation, arbitration, or settlement offers the most efficient path forward. Throughout the process, we communicate clearly, explain the risks and benefits of each decision, and ensure that your business interests remain protected at every stage.
