Legal counsel on the negotiation, drafting, review and monitoring of contracts, with attention to the operations and risks of each business.
From negotiation to performance
Contract work begins with understanding what the parties intend to achieve. We examine proposals, obligations, commercial terms and related documents to structure instruments that are consistent with the business and clear to those who will have to perform them.
What we review
Subject matter, delivery and acceptance criteria, price, price adjustments, guarantees, liabilities, confidentiality, terms, renewal, termination and dispute resolution. The priority given to each point depends on the activity, the risk exposure and the company’s position in the negotiation.
How the work is organized
Our advice may include mapping critical issues, preparing drafts, reviewing documents submitted by the counterparty and supporting negotiations. It also covers amendments and setting up routines to track obligations and deadlines.
Contracts that keep pace with the business
Signing is one stage of the relationship. Changes in scope, disagreements over performance and the need to end a partnership call for reading the contract together with the operational reality. Our approach takes into account the continuity of the business and the documentation of decisions.
