What is a breach of contract claim?

A breach of contract claim in Arizona is a legal remedy for when one party does not uphold their end of an agreement or contract. A breach of contract claim is typically used when a party has not fulfilled their agreement, usually because of an injustice, mistake, or faulty performance. When a breach of contract claim is established, it usually means that either party has the right to receive reimbursement for any damages that were caused by the breach. To be eligible for a breach of contract claim, there are certain conditions that must be followed. First, the agreement must be in writing and signed by both parties. Second, the alleged breach must be indicated in the agreement or contract. In Arizona, legal remedies for breach of contract claims can involve either monetary or non-monetary restitution. Monetary restitution is when a party receives financial compensation for the damages that were caused. Non-monetary restitution is typically when the person recovering from the breach is given something else to make up for the damages caused. A breach of contract claim can also involve penalties, including civil fines, court costs, and attorney fees. These additional expenses are meant to hold the breaching party accountable for their actions. To file a breach of contract claim, the party filing the claim must provide evidence to support their case. This typically includes documents, contracts, and other records providing proof of the breach of contract.
