Legal Question in Business Law in Massachusetts

Any attorney will say it depends on a number of factors. Do you have a written contract and does it stipulate venue (location) for disputes? If not, you can always sue in MA and see what the other side does. Consult with an attorney in your area for specifics.

You want to sue in mass. The issue will be, does the mass court have jurisdiction over the Connecticut company? This depends on whether the defendant has regular contacts with mass. Or, whether, in this case, it contacted you in mass or the contract has connections to mass. For instance, did the company contact you in mass; does it advertise in mass, was your work perdormer in mass? It is a fact specific inquiry as to whether the mass long arm statute is satisfied and whether due process is met. Please call me Monday if you interested in discussing this.
