Commercial Agreements
A good agreement is one you never need to revisit. It states precisely what each party undertakes, what happens when things go wrong, and how the relationship ends if it must.
We draft new agreements, review drafts proposed to our clients and lead negotiations, aligning every clause with the client's commercial goals and risk appetite.
What we do
- Investment and shareholders' agreements
- Partnership and joint-venture agreements
- Licensing, IP and royalty agreements
- Distribution, agency and franchise agreements
- Services, supplier and customer agreements
- Confidentiality (NDA) and non-compete
Frequently asked questions
Should I have a contract drafted by the other side reviewed?
Yes. A draft prepared by the other side usually reflects its interests. An early review identifies one-sided clauses, gaps and exposures so they can be fixed before signing.
How long does drafting an agreement take?
It depends on complexity and the number of negotiation rounds. A standard agreement can be ready within days; a complex multi-party deal may take weeks.
