Urban Life: Our Youth

Hengtai Law Firm.

"Lawyer Liu, BNH Company said it would rent the entire first-floor hall from the developer and invite investment from outside, so I went to choose a location. They charged me a deposit of 2 yuan, but they agreed to open the business. It's been a year and they haven't opened yet. They were unsuccessful in attracting investment and no merchants were willing to do business with them. So, I asked for my deposit to be returned, but they refused to return it for various reasons." A young man the woman said.

"Okay, Miss Tulip, I understand the situation you mentioned." Liu Long was receiving a female customer.

"This BNH company is really annoying. You said, if they fail to attract investment, can you blame me? On the one hand, since I have paid money with them, it is not easy to invest elsewhere. I was waiting for the opening of this place so that we could enter the shopping mall. In this way, I lost a lot of investment opportunities in the past year. In addition, my 2 yuan was used in vain for them for a year, and I was not prepared to ask for the interest. I just I asked for the return of my principal of 2 yuan, but they were unwilling to return it. They said that the developer was unwilling to refund the rent of their BNH company. What does the matter between them and the developer have to do with our business? It is really unreasonable. I'm furious!"

"You're right. What they said is just an excuse to not want to refund the money. It has nothing to do with you."

"Then how can I get my 2 yuan deposit back?"

"When you were discussing this cooperation, did you sign a more formal contract?" Liu Long asked.

"There is a contract! I handed him 2 yuan, can I not ask him for the receipt and contract? I'm not a fool." Tulip said, handing the contract and receipt they signed to lawyer Liu dragon.

Zhou Youcai listened on the sidelines, feeling a little feverish on his face. He thought that when someone handed over 2 yuan, they would sign a contract, ask for a receipt, and go through relevant procedures, but when he handed over 100 million yuan, there was no formality.

He looked at the woman carefully. She was about 160 centimeters tall, with a plump figure, fair skin, particularly lively eyes, and shoulder-length hair flowing down like a waterfall.

Liu Long took the contract and receipt, looked at it carefully, and then said to Tulip: "Don't worry, I have read your relevant materials. This lawsuit is simple and clear, and the procedures are complete. I can definitely help you get the 2 yuan." You want your money back. Not only that, it is clearly written on it. If either party breaches the contract, it will pay the other party 1 yuan in liquidated damages. Then, they will not only have to return your principal of 2 yuan, but also We will pay you a liquidated damages of 1 yuan. Therefore, we must learn from experience and lessons, and when paying fees such as deposits to merchants or others, we must ask for relevant legal procedures to protect our own legitimate rights and interests."

"Lawyer Liu, if you say that, then I would like to thank you very much. In fact, if they had returned the principal of 2 yuan to me earlier, I would not even be prepared to ask for the liquidated damages of 1 yuan. However, they really made me too angry, and I also lost a lot of business and investment opportunities during this year, so now I advocate following what is stipulated in the contract!"

"Yes, this is your legitimate rights and interests, and it should be so." Liu Long said.
