Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New York

Re: Debt Liability

yes he is liable. If the business is not a corporation and he is the individual DBA whatever, he is liable. There are a number of problems with your fact pattern that go beyond this service...but if the payments were made by the business and not BOB, the rest of the debt ought to be recoverable from the business owner.

Re: Debt Liability

While your question may seem like an easy one it actually is pretty complex and depends on a lot of factors. Overall, it's really going to depend on what type of business the company is that took the advertising out. I they are a corporation, or any derivative, or are a company whereinwich the signor of the contract was merely acting as an agent for the company - which generally this is the situation - then you will be able to sue the company and/ or the other individual.

Re: Debt Liability

Find a local lawyer and sue all of them -- the business and the individuals. Let them figure out amongst themselves who is responsible. Best of luck.

Re: Debt Liability

Well......the contract goes with the business. If the business is a sole proprietorship, it should stay with the the father, but then, how could the son run the business?

Under $5,000, sue them all in the local town/village justice court where they are located. Allege breach of contract, account stated, and unpaid services. Let the Court sort it out.

Good Luck
