Businesses rely on contracts every day — with customers, vendors, partners, and service providers. These agreements define payment obligations, intellectual property ownership, liability allocation, and the rules that govern the relationship between the parties.
Poorly drafted or poorly negotiated contracts can expose a company to unnecessary legal risk, unexpected costs, and disputes that could have been avoided with careful legal review.
Uncommon Counsel assists companies with drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial agreements so that contracts protect the business while still allowing deals to move forward efficiently.
The firm regularly advises clients on a wide range of commercial agreements, including:
Clients often seek legal support when reviewing a contract presented by another party, negotiating key terms in a business deal, or developing standardized contract templates for their company.
Many contract disputes arise not because a party intended to act unfairly, but because the agreement itself was unclear or incomplete. Common issues that arise in commercial contracts include:
Ambiguous payment terms, unclear pricing adjustments, or poorly defined procurement obligations can create significant financial risk.
Contracts should clearly define the work to be performed, timelines for delivery, and objective performance metrics.
Technology, creative work, and proprietary materials must be addressed carefully so that ownership and licensing rights are clearly defined.
Indemnification clauses, limitations of liability, and insurance provisions determine how risk is shared between the parties.
Depending on the industry involved, agreements may also need to address privacy obligations, data security requirements, or other regulatory compliance issues.
Careful contract drafting and review can prevent these issues before they become disputes.
Uncommon Counsel works with clients at all stages of the contracting process, including:
Many clients engage the firm on an ongoing basis to provide transactional support similar to outside general counsel.
If you need assistance reviewing, drafting, or negotiating a commercial contract, you may schedule a consultation to discuss your matter and determine the appropriate next steps.
