Consultation on Contract Preparation and Analysis
The consultation aims to provide legal assessment of proposed contractual relations, determine applicable legislation, and develop an approach to structuring deal terms considering the party's interests. Business objectives, risks, counterparty status, contract subject matter, and key provisions requiring agreement are analyzed.
Following the consultation, a basic legal position is formed and costs are estimated for subsequent stages - contract drafting, legal review of provided text, negotiation support, and agreement formalization.
Key Stages of Contract Support in the US:
- Defining objectives and contract type
Selecting appropriate legal agreement form (sales, services, investments, licensing agreements, etc.). - Contract drafting or legal analysis
Preparing drafts considering state legislation, industry specifics, and balancing party interests. - Negotiating key terms
Developing and agreeing on provisions regarding subject matter, timelines, payment, liability, force majeure, confidentiality, governing law, and dispute resolution. - Risk assessment and formal requirements review
Evaluating regulatory compliance, provision admissibility, and potential legal/tax consequences. - Negotiation support and finalization
Legal assistance in discussions, term revisions, and contract execution.
Contract preparation and analysis are essential for legal security in business relationships, requiring careful attention to details, wording, and applicable US legislation.
