HOW DFA LAW CAN HELP
Business Legal Services for the Work in Front of You
A contract to review, a business question to resolve, or a legal team stretched for capacity can each call for a different kind of support.
Corporate Legal Advice
Consider the legal implications of business decisions with advice that takes your commercial priorities into account. Understand the questions to address before deciding how to proceed.
Contract Review
Understand the obligations and potential risks in an agreement. Review how its terms relate to the work being done, your business objectives, and the commitments each side is making.
In-House Legal Support
Add legal capacity when your existing team is short-handed or managing a heavier workload. Discuss the tasks, priorities, and period of support your team needs.
Understand Your Agreement
Contract Review Before Your Next Commitment
The commercial terms you focus on first may be only part of an agreement. A useful review considers the document as a whole and how it relates to the intended business relationship. Depending on the agreement, questions may include the following.
Corporate legal advice helps connect these questions to the decision you need to make. The focus and depth of the review should reflect the agreement and your priorities.
Work and Payment
What must each side deliver, and when is payment due? Acceptance requirements, invoicing terms, and additional charges can affect the practical demands of the agreement.
Duration and Exit
When does the agreement end or renew, and what notice is required? These provisions deserve attention when planning whether to continue or end the relationship.
Responsibility and Liability
Who takes responsibility if performance falls short or a claim arises? Review liability limits and any terms requiring one party to cover specified losses or claims.
Information and Ownership
What information must remain confidential, and who owns any work product? Consider the wording alongside how your business intends to use the information or materials.
