Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a contract a good commercial contract?

Good contracts are essential for your business as they offer four key advantages that can significantly impact your bottom line.

Setting your business relationship up for success involves outlining clear expectations, responsibilities, and deliverables. This sets the foundation for productive and harmonious trading relationships.
Clearly stating payment terms not only ensures transparency but also safeguards your interests by specifying the agreed financial aspects. This clarity can prevent misunderstandings and payment delays.
By minimising the potential for future disputes and/or non-compliance, a well-drafted contract acts as a preventive measure. It provides a framework for addressing issues upfront, reducing the likelihood of conflicts and legal complications down the line.
In the event of default, a well-drafted and tailored contract provides a greater level of security; putting the business in the strongest possible position to limit the scope for disputes and increase the likelihood of recovery.
