Who A Contract Business Lawyer Is And What They Do
To be able to operate properly, business owners work with lawyers hand-in-hand. However, you can’t just consult any lawyer if you need help with specific matters, such as commercial contracts. Fortunately, we have the best people to help you with that. Contract lawyers specialize in reviewing and drafting legal contracts that a business might need.
They are often deemed as the ‘backbone’ of a business, maintaining a good relationship with its shareholders, suppliers, employees, and clients. They ensure that their client’s rights are protected and that incorrect legal procedures are not costing them valuable time and money.
Contract lawyers work with an extensive set of tasks, mainly dealing with legal business contracts. A few of these include nondisclosure agreements (NDA), joint venture agreements, partnership agreements, and supplier contracts. They work with clients to advise them on the meaning of every legal contract that needs to be signed for specific transactions. Since contracts contain legal terms a client might not be familiar with (“legalese”), they can explain these terms or help revise them to tailor to the client’s needs.
They can also help with contract breach cases and will be tasked to review a contract if a party fails to perform an obligation and advise a client on the next steps.
Common Types of Business Contracts
There are over 5.93 million businesses in the Uk. Whether you’re building a brand or an already established business moving towards expansion, you will encounter several contracts. Business lawyers help o through all the nuisances and the nitty-gritty of contracts. They make the process easier, and you can have peace of mind when conducting business with partners.
Here are some of the most common business types our lawyers can help you with:
Non-Disclosure Agreements(NDA’s)
When you’re building your business, you go through the creative and brainstorming process and collaborations with potential partners & investors to develop a foundation with which your business plan will be put into play. This is actually when a confidentiality agreement comes in handy. NDAs are legal documents that outline confidential content or restricted access to information that parties sign to maintain confidentiality for a relationship, for example, employment or partnership. NDAs give a business owner legal status in case whoever you’re working with discloses your business information.
Partnership Agreements
Partnership agreements outline the responsibilities of business partners involved in a business relationship. It also lays out the clear obligations, profit/loss distribution, capital ownership, partnership dissolution, etc. Such agreements are drafted during a partnership, and any time a partner wishes to change the terms and conditions, it has to be done in writing. These contracts also are helpful during dispute resolution.
Service Agreements
Service contracts encompass agreements between a buyer and a vendor. Lawyers for business contracts can assist you with anything from completing equipment leases required to finish a job to getting assistance with a contract to send to clients.
General Employment Law/ Agreement
The relationship between you and your employee, including pay, benefits, length of employment, reasons for termination, and any other issues about your business, such as ownership of generated works, are made clear by having an employment contract. Making sure the right expectations are established from the outset is always a good idea when you hire new employees for your business.
Investment Agreements
The arrangements you have with the people who lend you money to run your firm are defined by investment contracts. The success of your company depends on these partnerships. Therefore you must make sure that both parties gain from the agreement. Our business contract lawyer can assist you in drafting, reviewing, and even amending an existing contract’s provisions to achieve the greatest results for all parties and intellectual property.
Business Lease Agreements
You’ll need to sign a business leasing agreement if you need office space. Sounds easy. Unfortunately, a business lease agreement’s terms differ drastically from those of residential ones, which you may be familiar with. We highly advise using a business contract attorney to assist with commercial lease agreements. Without the proper assistance, the terms involved might become confusing and harm your situation.
