The Contract our clients choose or agree to sign creates a legally binding agreement by which rights and/or obligations are acquired or granted.

We advise our clients, whether a project owner, main contractor, subcontractor or professional consultant on the choice of contract which provide the best risk allocation by considering documentation that suits the related industry best, practical constraints, available resources, regulatory requirements and contract administration obligations.

Where a Standard Form of Contract (FIDIC, IChemE, Orgalime model forms etc.) has been chosen for use, we can draft tailored amendments, advise on the amendments provided by others or advise on the appropriateness of the selected contract.

We provide our clients with contract selection advice, training, tailored drafting of contract and letters of intent, contract interpretation and review of how their contract applies to them in respect of rights and obligations.
