Frequent questions
Frequently asked questions
Why ratify a private contract before a public broker?
Ratification certifies that the parties acknowledge the content and the authenticity of their signatures, making it much harder to repudiate the document later.
Is it worth including an arbitration clause?
In commercial relationships between businesses, it usually speeds up dispute resolution and maintains confidentiality. We can integrate it with clear appointment rules.
Do you review contracts I've already signed?
Yes. We analyze the existing contract, identify risks, and tell you your options: an addendum, renewal with changes, or an exit strategy.
About to sign something important?
Let's review the contract before you sign it, not after things go wrong.
