Commercial

In a complex world, our specialist commercial lawyers bring clarity and insight to helping our clients structure and manage their business relationships, whether with their customers, suppliers or partners.

Commercial agreements are the life-blood of any organisation's business. From interpreting clauses in an existing contract to drafting and negotiating long-term outsourcing or supply chain agreements, we collaborate with our clients to ensure they achieve their strategic and commercial objectives. 

Our team regularly advises on a wide range of agreements, often with an international dimension, including:

  • Terms of business
  • Distributorship and agency agreements
  • Logistics and supply chain contracts
  • Business process and IT outsourcing
  • Education joint ventures
  • Grant agreements
  • High-tech manufacturing and life sciences contracts

These issues are complex but we prepare agreements in plain English and advice without legalese.
