Contracts
Contracts are the legal glue that holds society's economic and personal relationships together. From simple purchase agreements to complex collaboration agreements, contracts regulate rights, obligations and risks between parties. A well-drafted contract serves as a predictable framework of rules that the parties can relate to, while flawed agreements often become a source of misunderstandings, conflicts and costly disputes. Today's business and private life involves increasingly complex contractual relationships that span national borders, technological solutions and long periods of time. Standard contracts and oral agreements rarely cover all relevant matters, and can leave the parties vulnerable when unforeseen situations arise. At the same time, legislation, market conditions and technology are changing rapidly, requiring contracts to adapt to new realities in order to remain relevant and enforceable.

We also help standardize contract provisions across the contract portfolio to ensure consistent risk management.

We assist with legal analysis of ambiguous or complex contract provisions when the parties disagree on their interpretation.
