International Contract Review

WHAT’S IT FOR?

If you’re asked to sign a contract, it’s a good idea to have a lawyer review it. An experienced lawyer can spot clauses that are unfavourable to you, and also recommend provisions that are usually included in contracts of a similar nature.

WHAT’S INCLUDED?

We’ll review a contract provided by you, highlight key issues and risks for you, and prepare a list of changes for you to request from the other side.

This package includes:

• Review of the contract by a Sprintlaw lawyer
• A walkthrough of the review findings and any key suggested amendments by a Sprintlaw lawyer, either via the phone or video call (up to 60 minutes) or in a video recording
• Optional: List of changes for you to request from the other side (this will be in a format you’ll be able to send to the other side).

Please note that this is a limited scope package does not include re-drafting or marking-up the document. If re-drafting or marking-up is required, we will provide a new quote for the re-draft. This package also does not include any direct negotiations or correspondence with the counter-party or their lawyers, or reviewing any responses from the counter-party or their lawyers to the list of requested changes. If you need further negotiation support or additional rounds of review, we will provide a new quote scoped according to our Negotiation Support package.

Please note that as we are New Zealand-qualified lawyers, we will review your documents in accordance with New Zealand law. We generally suggest that businesses with international dealings consider speaking to local lawyers in the relevant countries to check whether there may be specific regulatory issues that may affect your business. If you did engage us to review this document, we will only be able to advise on the commercial aspects of the arrangement and won’t be able to make any comments on any foreign laws.
