Lease Review, Contract Review and Checking Service
We provide fixed cost contract checking and contract review service covering contracts, terms and conditions, leases and business agreements. We check your legal documents/agreements to ensure they are fit for purpose for which you intend to use them and there are no liabilities or costs at a later date.
Where you are already using template documents or have never checked a contract or agreement we can ensure they are legally compliant. We also advise on alignment with your ways of working so any document checked by us is less likely to fail when tested.
Our service precludes disputes that lead to non payment and debt issues caused by poorly drafted clauses, poor ways of working, unsustainable delivery mechanisms (including ambiguous payment terms), and poor or non-existent disputes procedures.
Effectively drafted Agreements can preclude poor payments and the disputes that follow.
Please call 0333 121 0161 for a free no obligation discussion about our services; or
visit our contact page and we will get back to you the same day.
Our specialist team have many years of experience in checking and drafting contracts documents across England and beyond.
A contract review is a contractual process used to identify and analyse the key provisions within any agreement.
It is established law that if you sign something you are responsible for it, so any signed contract, agreement or terms and conditions can have significant implications for the future of your business. We check your documents so that you aren't exposed to substantial risk.
There is no such thing as a standard document/ contract and there is no excuse under law for not doing contract review on what you are given
before signature. Reviewing a contract before it is signed clarifies each party's obligations, protects their interests and ensures that all parties are being treated fairly.
Unlike other companies who use contract review software we enact contract reviews manually to analyse the implications of every provision.
Any contract is a legally binding agreement. Without a thorough review, there's a risk that the parties could be committed to something
they can't deliver. They could also be lumbered with unfavourable terms that lead to costly, and entirely avoidable, legal disputes.
Therefore the contract review process is important as it reduces the legal and financial risk involved in any agreement.
A contract review ensures that all terms are fair, enforceable, and properly documented; making it clear what happens if either party were to break the conditions laid out in the contract.
Our unique approach means that we can translate the legal gobbledygook into plain English.
We use a diligent and experienced paralegal team under out £1m PI insurance and set out a summary of the key points of liability and potential liability.
A basic premise often overlooked by lawyers and contract checking software is that contracts never fail on the legal wording they fail in
the way real people work with each other in real situations. It is no good having all the legal wording in the world if the parties cannot agree on how they work together or what they will do when an
unforeseen event happens.
What Are the Key Steps in a Contract Review?
Contract reviews can be broken down into many areas, but we seek to keep it simple (KISS) for the business and what risks they are likely to face, a careful review of the payment terms and triggers, commercial terms and duration periods.
An example is days eom on payment. 30 days eom = 44 days average payment
60day eom = 84 days average payment.
Contract Review Checklist

If you do not currently use Terms and Conditions, you are leaving your business wide open to problems. We are able to advise and draft terms and conditions at fixed fees and advise you on the law of contract so there are no loopholes for any potential dispute.
We cover the following
1. Drafting Terms and Conditions
We draft terms and conditions. All we need is a breadkdown of the way you are working and seeking to deliver goods and/or services.
2. Overhaul of current Terms and Conditions
Many businesses do not review their terms and conditions. We provide a Terms and Conditions health check to assess your current terms and advise how they could be updated and improved to protect your business further.
3. Concise terms regarding overdue payment, charges and interest
We can help you ensure your terms and conditions clearly state the provisions of the law under late payment.
Advice on how to ensure terms are effective and legally binding
It is a common misconception that terms and conditions need to be signed for them to be legally binding and enforceable. We advise you on the law to ensure you are fully protected at all times.
Special terms for individual business sectors
Due to our experience dealing with contracts across a wide variety of business and industry sectors, we can provide clients with advice on special and unique terms and conditions required in your business sector.
