Contract negotiation and drafting
Commercial agreements often involve balancing legal requirements, commercial objectives and practical realities.
Whether reviewing a counterparty's draft, preparing a new agreement or supporting negotiations, the objective is to establish clear expectations, an appropriate allocation of risk and a framework that supports the commercial relationship.
I provide practical and structured support with contract negotiations, drafting and review, tailored to the circumstances and objectives of each matter.
When this may be useful
This type of support may be particularly relevant when:
- reviewing a counterparty's draft agreement
- preparing a new commercial agreement
- negotiating key contractual terms
- considering proposed amendments or changes
- assessing contract risks in greater detail
- requiring support throughout a negotiation process
How I can support
- Review of draft agreements
- Contract drafting and redrafting
- Preparation of proposed amendments
- Negotiation support
- Contract risk analysis
- Review of specific clauses and provisions
Practical approach
Every agreement and commercial relationship is different.
The scope of support is therefore tailored to the agreement, the commercial objectives and the specific issues involved. Support may range from targeted comments on selected provisions to comprehensive drafting and negotiation support.
The objective is to help businesses establish clear agreements that support their commercial objectives and provide a practical foundation for the relationship between the parties.
Relationship with contract risk assessment
In some situations, an initial contract risk assessment may provide sufficient clarity and direction.
Where more detailed analysis, drafting assistance or negotiation support is required, support can be expanded to reflect the circumstances of the matter.
