Commercial

It is so important that your commercial agreements are set out in an effective legal agreement. Unwritten or informally written documents are often ambiguous. While such agreements may appear attractive in the short term they can lead to great expense later on as relationships, market conditions or economic backdrops change.

Altmore Business Law will work closely with you and your other advisers involved with the instructions to ensure that your position is fully protected by:

• Imposing clarity (unless ambiguity is required for a political, tactical or strategic reason)
• Working hard on price, commission and other clauses containing rights including exclusion and liability limitation clauses as appropriate
• Applying suitable jurisdiction and dispute resolution provisions, especially if international

We will work at the speed you require and negotiate when required, but always in a constructive way to achieve your objectives and to secure continued good relations. Complexity is never a problem.
