Commercial Contracts

Supporting Businesses With Their Commercial Contracts

JCLM have expertise in a wide variety of Commercial Contracts including those prevalent in the Construction and Engineering, IT and Brewing sector.

We can provide advice on your Terms of Business (including website terms) and those provided by your suppliers- including making any changes we consider are necessary as a result of legislative and industry requirements- and help you in the event that things go wrong.

We are also aware of the legal framework surrounding such contracts as imposed by the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (in respect of possible unfair terms, returns/replacements and digital content) if you are dealing with a consumer; and the Unfair Contracts Terms Act 1977 (in respect of limitation clauses and exclusion clauses) in the context of business to business contracts.

Start-Ups

Commercial Contracts: The Common Pitfalls

Commercial Contracts are a matter upon which specialist advice is required but all too rarely sought.

Far too often standard terms are uploaded for free from the internet and appear on a website and do not satisfactorily deal with incorporation of terms, pre-contractual representations, exclusion of liability, warranties and indemnities to be provided, specification, price, delivery and security for payment: let alone appreciate the distinction between a consumer and a business client and its impact on cancellation, termination and break costs.

Far too often matters like this end up in court and cause cash flow issues or worse. JCLM’s monthly service for SMEs intends to deal with this widespread problem.

JCLM can also augment Commercial Contracts by designing bespoke Privacy Policies and Data Protection Policies to ensure compliance with GDPR and national laws.
