What is a commercial contract?

In short, a commercial contract is a contract between two parties detailing a commercial agreement between the said parties. This simple definition does not scratch the surface regarding what the contract will actually contain.

A typical commercial contract can be several pages long and will contain several important key provisions to set out the commercial arrangement and protect the businesses interests. We highly recommend obtaining legal advice before signing a commercial agreement.

The importance of commercial contracts

A commercial contract does not have to be written, but it is advisable for the agreement to be documented in writing for the avoidance of any doubt. In our experience, a documented arrangement is much more likely to protect your businesses interests.

The importance of well-drafted commercial contracts for businesses cannot be overlooked. Our contract lawyers use detailed, robust and effective language to set out the reality of the contractual arrangement. This aims to ensure your business arrangement runs smoothly without any issues or confusion. We are able to draft and advise on a variety of commercial contracts, such as contracts for the provision of goods or services, outsourcing contracts, and supply agreements.
Our knowledgeable contract solicitors understand the key provisions that should be taken into consideration when drafting the contract. For example, how will the arrangement be terminated? What are the implications on the arrangement post-Brexit? The failure to address these considerations can be devastating and costly to a business, so we pride ourselves on our commercial awareness and our ability to identify these risks to our clients.
