Commercial contract lawyers, before you sign it
A contract with a gap or an unclear clause becomes binding the moment you sign it. We draft and review the agreements that keep your business running, so they hold up later.
Sound familiar?
Standard terms drafted for someone else's business rarely protect yours.
Without clear terms, scope disputes get expensive fast once work has started.
Outdated terms can leave gaps you won't discover until something goes wrong.
Once your signature is on it, an unfair clause is binding even if you didn't notice it.
What we handle
Draft supplier and customer agreements
An agreement written around how your business actually operates holds up far better than a generic template.
Review contracts before you sign
Once you've signed, an unfair clause is binding, so the time to catch it is before your signature goes on.
Prepare terms and conditions of trade
Trading terms set out who takes the risk if something goes wrong, so outdated ones can leave gaps you don't know about.
Draft service agreements and licences
A clear service agreement sets expectations upfront, which is far cheaper than arguing about scope halfway through the job.
Advise on liability and indemnity clauses
These clauses decide who pays if something goes wrong, and they're often the most heavily negotiated part of a contract.
Negotiate contract terms on your behalf
Having someone else negotiate the fine print keeps the relationship friendly while still protecting your position.
What happens when you get in touch
Whether it's one you've received or one you need drafted, send it through and tell us the context.
We flag anything that concerns us and explain what it actually means in plain terms.
You'll know exactly what you're agreeing to, and what to push back on if anything needs changing.
Common questions
How quickly can you turn around a contract review?
We respond within one (1) business day and can usually give you a clear view of the risks well before that.
What does a contract review cost?
It depends on the length and complexity of the document. We'll confirm the basis of the fee before we start.
Do I need a written contract for every supplier?
Not always, but for anything ongoing or high value, a written agreement protects you if a disagreement comes up later.
Can you review a contract someone else has sent me?
Yes, this is one of the most common things we do. We'll go through it clause by clause and flag anything that concerns us.
Not sure if you have a problem worth acting on?
Send us the contract before you sign it, and know exactly what you're agreeing to.
No cost, no obligation.
