Business Structures & Commercial

When it comes to contracts, it’s essential to get it right first time because the final agreement affects those involved well into the future.

We know that a deep understanding of your business can never be underestimated. And that’s why we’ll explore all possible litigious aspects of a relationship within the terms of a contract or agreement at the time of negotiation.

We make it our business to pay attention to taxation, operational flexibility, effectiveness, and risk management in negotiations and contract documentation. At the same time, we provide authoritative technical legal advice, but we won’t hesitate to get a barrister on board if your situation requires an additional level of specialisation.

Drafting contracts is carried out with longevity in mind. For this reason, we’ll always test our contingency planning in contract drafting, particularly given the current volatility in the commercial sector. In addition, we also offer tailored taxation advice to complement our commercial work.

Our team are experts at recognising eventualities you may not have even considered, helping to avoid the cost of restructuring and the risk of future litigation.
