Common use of Renewable Contract Clause in Contracts

Renewable Contract. Both parties hereto recognize the long-standing partnership between the former Coastal Bend Legal Services, now merged with and into TRLA, and Nueces County and their long history of working together to ensure equal access to justice for persons who are unable to afford legal counsel and representation in civil matters. Both parties also recognize the efficiencies created by combining the resources of both organizations in fulfilling this purpose and the importance of maintaining this relationship in the future. Both parties further agree that the representation of clients in civil matters and the professional responsibility owed to the clients pursuant to the attorney/client relationship necessarily requires a reasonable assumption that continued renewal of this Contract be presumed. Accordingly, both parties agree that this Contract is renewable on an annual basis. Provided, however, that annual adjustments to the dollar amount of the contract may be made by either party pursuant to the regular process for the adoption of the annual fiscal year budget by the County. Provided further, either party may terminate this Contract upon ninety (90) days’ written notice to the other party.
