Commercial Transactions
Customer, supplier, distribution and services agreements for growing companies, negotiated around how the business actually earns and delivers revenue.
Most of a company’s legal exposure sits in its ordinary contracts. A services agreement, a distribution deal or a supply contract can quietly decide pricing power, liability, ownership of work product and how easily the business can one day be sold.
We draft, review and negotiate the agreements that run a business day to day, and build templates the team can use with confidence between calls to counsel.
What we handle
- Master services agreements and statements of work
- Customer and supplier terms
- Distribution, co-packing and reseller agreements
- Subcontract and vendor agreements
- Contractor and consulting arrangements
- Contract templates and negotiation playbooks
How we work
We start with how the business makes money and where it carries risk, then shape the terms around both. For owners preparing for investment or a sale, we also review existing contracts the way a buyer’s diligence team will, before they do.
