Re: expired contract, continuos employment

What kicks in is what we call "course of dealing." In plain English, it would mean though you have nothing in writing now, the way you dealt with each other in the past would control your present relationship. However, there are numerous escapes to that - depending on the language in the old contract. We practice in MD, D.C., GA & TX so if you need to contact us feel free to do so.
