Legal Question in Business Law in Nevada

Upholding Advertising Insertion Order

Hi. We have a client who owned a real estate office. He signed an insertion order to advertise in our magazine, and had agents in his office advertise. Now, he has sold the business and is trying to have his lawyers say that he is legally responsible for the debt, that the office is. He signed the insertion order, authorizing advertising for the office. In terms and conditions, it specifically states ''Publisher shall have the right to hold and advertiser and/or its advertising agency jointly and severely liable for money due and payable to advertising that advertiser ordered, approved and was published.'' How do we enforce it? Help me please, they owe us over $8000.

Re: Upholding Advertising Insertion Order

If the advertiser is an entity other than the individual owner, the entity (corporation or limited liability company) may be the only liable party. If the advertiser is the individual, he may be sued in the Justice Court of the Township in which the payment obligation was to be performed. Jurisdiction is capped at $10,000 principal, according to this law:
