Contract Drafting and Review
We draft agreements reflecting your arrangement, with clear obligations, implementation terms, and procedures for potential disputes.
We help clients draft and review contracts in light of the transaction and its purpose. We assess obligations, payment terms, delivery, liability, termination, and dispute resolution. We identify provisions needing revision or negotiation, and align the wording with the actual agreement and documents relevant to the relationship.

FAQ
Before you get in touch
Can you review a contract drafted by the other party?
Yes. We review the draft against the transaction, your interests, and proposed obligations. We explain significant terms and risks, and suggest revisions for discussion before the final version is approved.
Can you review a contract that has already been signed?
A signed contract can be reviewed to interpret obligations, assess an existing issue, or consider an amendment. We also examine schedules, correspondence, and performance; changes may require agreement between the parties.
Can one contract template cover every transaction?
A template may provide a starting point, but suitability depends on the transaction, parties, and risks. We review the arrangement and adapt relevant provisions to reflect actual obligations and intended performance.
How do you handle contracts in Arabic and English?
We review consistency of meaning and obligations between versions, identifying differences and their implications. We also assess the prevailing-language clause and any requirements for presenting documents to relevant authorities.
