Have you had an accident because of high winds?


Storm Barney unleashes hell on Britain with 80mph gusts and crippling floods.  Strong winds can cause damage to buildings, trees and roads which can increase the chance of accidents occurring resulting in injury to individuals.


Trees are frequently blown down during high winds, they often fall onto the highway or the pavement. Large trees falling on cars and/or pedestrians cause injuries and they are often life threatening.

If you are interested in holding a live music event, or if you are a musician interested in doing some extra performances this festive season, you will want to ensure that the event runs as smoothly as possible and the fans and customers get the event that they are looking for. To make this happen it is important to have in place a legally binding agreement which can protect any and all interests most important for a successful event and to establish a future business relationship between the parties. 

So what happens if something does go wrong? In the absence of a legally binding agreement it can often be very difficult to prove the existence of a legal relationship and duty based on an informal agreement or email correspondence. By entering into a formal agreement, it protects your position and means that you may be able to bring a claim against the other party for any losses suffered as a result of any ancillary or fundamental breach.

This agreement can cover basic information such as the time, date and venue of the performance, payment terms, fee, even any special requests made by either party. This will make it undeniable by either party as to what their duties and responsibilities are and it ensures that all interests most important to the parties are protected.
