Contract disputes – Comprehensive resolution service with DEDICA

In business activities, contractual disputes are an almost unavoidable risk. Even if the contract has been carefully drafted, differences in understanding, implementation or changes in actual circumstances can still lead to conflicts. At that time, resolving contract disputes in Vietnam requires deep legal knowledge, practical handling experience and wise rights protection strategies.

DEDICA provides comprehensive contract dispute resolution and consulting services, helping customers resolve conflicts quickly, minimize damages and ensure maximum legal benefits.

1. What is a contract dispute?

Contract disputes are conflicts between parties during the process of concluding, performing or terminating a contract, related to agreed rights, obligations or benefits.

Some common types of disputes in Vietnam include:

• Disputes over goods purchase contracts, service contracts, lease – lease contracts, construction contracts, processing contracts, business cooperation contracts (BCC), investment contracts, labor contracts, etc.
• Disputes over breach of payment obligations, late delivery, wrong quality, or illegal cancellation of the contract.
• Disputes arise from unfavorable terms, ambiguous terms, or bilingual contracts with differences in interpretation.

2. Common causes of contract disputes

• The contract was not drafted clearly and completely, leading to different interpretations.
• A change in legal policy or business circumstances makes it impossible for a party to continue to perform its obligations.
• Lack of dispute resolution mechanisms (courts, arbitration) stipulated in the contract.
• A party breaches its payment, delivery or information security obligations.
• Contract disputes involve foreign elements, especially when there are differences in language and applicable law.
