We align legal terms with the transaction itself: what each party supplies, when payment is due and the remedies available if obligations are not met.
Drafting and negotiation
We define obligations, delivery or service conditions, acceptance of works, payment, security, liability and termination. Negotiation aims to allocate responsibilities and risks clearly, in line with the company’s objectives.
Our assistance covers sale, supply, distribution, transport, works, lease, loan, franchise and service agreements. Where there is an international element, we also examine governing law and dispute resolution clauses.
Contract performance and termination
We advise on interpreting terms, amending obligations and addressing non-performance. We prepare amendments, notices and documents needed to end the contractual relationship.
For late payment and other disputes, we coordinate contractual steps with debt recovery and the preparation of evidence for potential litigation.
Can a company suspend payment if economic conditions change?
Financial difficulty does not itself change contractual obligations. We examine the terms, the allocation of risk and the conditions for relying on force majeure or hardship. Our analysis of these mechanisms explains the distinction between an impediment to performance and an obligation that has become excessively onerous.
Which documents are useful for reviewing a contract?
The draft agreement, annexes, offer and a description of the transaction. Commercial objectives, terms already negotiated and the decision deadline are also relevant.
