When a non-disclosure agreement is violated, this means that a party has released information that the contract states they were not to share, including trade secrets. A litigation attorney should be contacted immediately when this happens.

Refusal of Contract Obligations
There is an obligations breach when a party in a contract does not complete the duties they are contracted to.

When a fundamental or material breach occurs, this permits the other party to terminate the contract, while also being able to sue for damages. An anticipatory breach occurs before the due date and an actual breach is on the due date.
