• Trading terms and conditions   
• E-commerce agreements  
• Non-disclosure agreements 
• Distribution and agency agreements

Ensuring your commercial contracts are compliant  

All your contracts need to comply with any relevant legislation, case law and general contract and commercial law to ensure they are binding on all parties. There are various standard terms that always need to be included such as the parties’ details, the date, etc. but there are nearly always terms to be agreed and drafted that are specific to the particular agreement, such as warranties, late payments and dealing with disputes.   

Why are correctly drafted commercial contracts so important?  

A professionally drafted commercial contract can reduce and protect a party to the contract from risk and liability. It should also reduce the risk of disagreement and provide a clear framework for resolving any issues, meaning parties can enforce specific obligations against the other party. But above all else, a well drafted commercial contract should help secure the best possible deal or most efficient way of operating, enhance contractual relationships and bring valuable peace of mind.
