Our day-to-day work involves creating, reviewing and negotiating contracts for clients to help them do business. We work with our clients to understand their business and the deals they are trying to do.
We act as gamekeeper and poacher – acting for clients who supply goods and services and acting for clients who purchase them. This gives us valuable commercial perspective when negotiating contracts.
Using this knowledge and our experience, we then make sure contracts accurately reflect the deal and cover off the legal issues. The result is that our clients have certainty and protection in their commercial dealings.
We can also assist clients who have to contract in accordance with public procurement rules when buying or selling goods/services.
We can advise on most types of commercial contract, including all of the following (and more):
- Distribution
- Agency
- Joint ventures
- Standard terms and conditions
- Franchising
- Manufacturing
- Supply of goods/services
- Purchase of goods/services
- Intellectual Property licences
We can provide as much or as little input as our clients’ budgets will allow. We can draft a contract and negotiate it all the way to signature or we can do a quick, high level review of a contract to make sure there are no major problems.
