Commercial

The key to drafting and negotiating a good commercial contract and looking after a client’s interests is to understand their business, to understand how the contract fits into their business and to understand their expectations and aims for entering into the contract. Only then can you provide pragmatic and commercial advice.

What is vital, what is preferable and what is inconsequential? These are fundamental questions that a lawyer must address, but too often fails to because they provide advice in a vacuum, divorced from the commercial reality of the situation.

 "I have worked with Nick on a number of deals and contracts. He is our sole business advisor now and I have worked with many. What's important to us is someone who gets to the core of the problem fast, only requires telling once, instinctively knows the best way to deal with it, and achieves the right balance of quality advice and value for money. Nick delivers on all fronts. Highly recommended."
