Commercial Contracts

We provide expert and practical advice in the preparation and negotiation of commercial agreements.

Contracts are extremely valuable documents.  Not only do they give you a number of benefits, allowing you to achieve your objectives, they also provide you with protection against some risks.  Do not let them have a life of their own; make sure they are clear and focused.

Our approach to contract negotiation is that:

  • We make sure you get what you want out of the contract.
  • We look at the key risks which the parties will face and determine how these should be apportioned.
  • We do not believe in amending contracts for the sake of it.

We provide the following services:

  • A quick overview - advising you by telephone or in writing of the key risks.
  • A more detailed review - highlighting risks/unusual clauses and suggesting changes.
  • A detailed review and draft amendments on the contract or in a covering letter.
