CONTRACTS We have accumulated
significant
experience, industry knowledge and
expertise providing business contract legal advice. We advise on
preparing contractual documentation, structuring agreements and
disputes. Our drafting expertise is drawn in part from our litigation
expertise, having seen what can happen when agreements are not drafted
to take into account a business' particular circumstances and the
specific requirement for the transaction.
We advise commercial entities of all sizes - from start-up businesses, small and medium sized business and to the large corporate enterprises locally and internationally. We support businesses in a variety of ways.

On the face of the contract this may well be the case, however much of the law is invisible - rights are implied in contracts, and the rules of interpreting the contract document by an experienced practitioner often is at great variance to an interpretation by one not interpreting such documents regularly. |
