Third Party Contracts And Web Designer's Liability

[fiynn]

Hi All,I have a query about web designers using third parties such as application developers. If I advocate a computer software developer and my client indicators a contract straight with that software program developer, am I nonetheless liable for the third party's actions? When I refer to 'actions' I'm not speaking about anything malicious or intentional, just unforeseen situations that arose by means of customizing an current purchasing cart application. Truth be told, it did take really a although to get the shopping cart application to function flawlessly, nonetheless making modifications to any functioning application to fit customized needs would demand time and testing. Can my client hold me responsible for the third party's actions or shortcomings? Specially considering that they signed the third party's contract and paid them straight?I am not affiliated nor partnered with the third celebration organization who created the software application for my consumers. I did not get any compensation for the recommendation, I simply chose the application since of their portfolio and the current Fortune 500 companies who are had purchased the application. Well, now it seems as though my client will be making use of that angle to get out of paying me for the remaining balance on a net project I completed for them. I integrated a purchasing cart application that they had authorized and bought straight via the third celebration firm, but due to the fact I suggested the third party to the client, they are withholding a portion of the invoiced amount. I am Extremely frustrated to say the least due to the fact I even extended a goodwill deduction to these folks as a token of "very good will" due to problems they had with the third party firm (even though it was not my duty to extend the offer you), but I guess that was not good enough as they also chose to brief spend me by $400.00 above the goodwill deduction I extended to them-- which I did not create. So now I am searching for the full amount (withdrawing my good will deduction due to nonpayment and the $400 currently previous due. Does anybody have any feedback for me? Has anybody encountered a client such as this?
