Commercial Contracts
Commercial Contracts
We advise on the agreements that define and support our clients’ business relationships—from high-volume, day-to-day contracts to bespoke, highly negotiated arrangements.
Focus on business alignment.
We bring the same level of sophistication to contract work that clients would expect in a large-firm setting—but we deploy it selectively. Not every agreement requires a heavily negotiated, fully optimized document. Some do. Many do not. Our role is to know the difference and focus effort where it creates value.
We approach contracts as practical tools. That means drafting and negotiating agreements that are clear, enforceable, and aligned with how the business actually operates—while avoiding unnecessary complexity that can slow deals down or create friction in ongoing relationships. We also bring an in-house perspective to this work, with an emphasis on usability, consistency, and scalability across an organization.
Scope of Practice
Core operational agreements: Customer and vendor contracts, master services agreements, supply agreements, and purchase terms
Technology and data arrangements: SaaS agreements, licensing agreements, data processing and data-sharing agreements
Strategic and revenue-driving relationships: Distribution agreements, reseller arrangements, channel partnerships, and joint commercial initiatives
Protective and ancillary agreements: Confidentiality agreements, non-solicitation and non-compete arrangements
Custom and one-off arrangements: Bespoke agreements tailored to unique business models, new products, or atypical commercial structures
In many cases—particularly for novel or complex arrangements—we are not working from a template. We start from a blank page, structuring agreements around the specific business objectives and risks at issue.
