    Contract review

    from 500 CHF (for up to 10 pages)

    A carefully drafted contract clarifies rights, obligations and commercial risks. We review your business agreement in light of your objectives and legal requirements, identifying provisions that may be unclear, incomplete or disadvantageous.

    Our legal contract review covers legal enforceability and consistency with your stated contractual intentions.

    The package includes:

    Personal introductory consultation about your contractual objectives

    ‘Red flag’ report on particularly critical contractual clauses

    ‘Yellow flag’ report with recommended amendments
