agreements

Negotiating and drafting agreements is an important part of our business and one of the areas where we excel as lawyers.

Whether drafting an agreement or reviewing one, our first step is to understand your business, your objectives and the relative leverage of the parties. No contract is risk free, but depending on your bargaining power, terms can be negotiated, and risks managed.

It’s important that you understand how the agreement operates and any potential liability imposed on you. What you think the deal is and what the contract says may be two different things. Your lawyer should be able to read between the lines and help you understand the “real deal”.

SOME OF THE AGREEMENTS WE DEAL WITH:

  • Share Purchase Agreements
  • Asset Purchase Agreements
  • Shareholder Agreements
  • Non-Disclosure Agreements
  • Franchise Agreements
  • Commercial Leases
