Our experienced commercial lawyers regularly advise businesses in relation to all aspects of the manufacture and supply of goods and the provision of services.

We are regularly involved in preparing standard terms and conditions which are specifically drafted to suit a client’s business needs. Standard terms avoid the time and expense associated with preparing separate agreements with individual clients. Some of the key terms to be considered and included will be payment structure and the consequences of payment not being made in accordance with the terms, the obligations of each party, the nature of the service or goods being supplied and provisions relating to liability. We can advise you on what terms are likely to be considered reasonably, thereby reducing the risk of a court deeming them to be unenforceable should a dispute arise.

It is important that businesses appreciate that their standard terms may not be incorporated into a contract merely by referring to them on your invoice. We can advise on ways to help ensure that your company’s standard terms are those which apply.

Other commercial agreements which we can advise on include outsourcing arrangements, franchising agreements and service level agreements.

Why we do it

We aim to give our clients peace of mind and confidence that their terms and conditions, which form the bedrock to their businesses, are effective and enforceable. Ultimately, we want to give businesses the best support to achieve their commercial goals.

How we do it

Our approach is always to invest quality time from the beginning in understanding your business and your commercial objectives in both the short and long term.

We are committed to providing clients with quality advice and support using our technical knowledge and years of experience.
