FAQs

Commercial contracts vary significantly from contract to contract. You should read the whole contract before signing to ensure it meets your requirements. The key elements we suggest you review are:

  • The payment terms – what you are expected to pay and when? Are there additional payments or retainers due?
  • Termination clause – look at how you can exit the agreement and what are your termination rights?
  • Liabilities – what are you liable for, and the limits of those liabilities, should you breach the terms?
  • Governing law – what is the governing law?

 

Our commercial team can help you understand the key terms of the contract.

Drafting a shareholders agreement can be extremely complex and it is best to get advice from one of our experts. However, prior to getting an agreement drafted you should think of the areas that are important to the shareholders. These can include:

  • Dividends
  • Employment status as a director
  • Influence
  • Protection of minority shareholders
  • Valuation of the shares
  • Voting powers

 

You should further look at the areas that you wish for the shareholders agreement to cover such as the process of transferring or selling of shares.

Terms and conditions should make clear:

  • what you are selling
  • the price of sale

  • termination

Commercial disputes can become expensive and time consuming without a proper process in place to review and assess.

Firstly, you should review the terms of the agreement and whether either party has defaulted on terms. Then assess the loss and try and negotiate an amicable solution.

Prior to pursuing legal recourse, you must follow appropriate alternative dispute resolution.
