Commercial Contracts

Get expert legal guidance for all your commercial arrangements, protecting your interests and minimising risk.

Taking care of the small print and the large print - commercial contracts you can rely on for business success

Future proof your contractual arrangements

A good contract will be clearly drafted, protect your business interests and shield you from any risks that may arise in the future. It should also establish a stable and mutually beneficial arrangement with the other party, avoiding expensive disputes or the need to find new business partners at short notice.

Expertise and experience – we’ll navigate the complex legislation

Contracts legislation is complex and extensive, and there is a lot of case law that can influence the outcome of any dispute. It’s essential to have legal expertise when presenting a contract or reviewing a contract from another party. We have a strong team with many years’ experience who keep abreast of all changes in the law for your benefit.

I have been told my property has development potential. What do I do?

If you’ve been contacted by a developer or a land promoter regarding a potential development to your property, you may wish to consider granting an option agreement or a promotion agreement. An option agreement is made between the landowner and the developer, where it is intended that the developer will apply for planning permission and requires an option to buy the property. A land promotion agreement is used where a developer agrees to apply for planning permission and will market the property for sale on the open market once planning permission has been obtained. This is usually in return for a proportion of the net sale proceeds. The law on this is very complex and you will need specialist advice.
