Giving your commitments the precision they deserve

A well-drafted contract is the first protection against future disputes. A poorly worded clause, an imprecise obligation or a missing guarantee can lastingly weaken your interests.

Cabinet Bassour & Abaragh supports individuals, professionals and businesses in the drafting and review of their contracts: commercial contracts, residential and commercial leases, service contracts, memoranda of agreement and various conventions. Our aim is to clearly express the parties’ intent, to identify risks and to provide for appropriate mechanisms in case of difficulty.

We act before signing, drafting a tailored document or reviewing an existing draft, and we are also present during the negotiation phases to adjust sensitive clauses within the applicable legal framework.

Situations we handle

Here are situations in which the firm may act, depending on the nature of the commitments and the stakes specific to each transaction.

  • Tailored drafting of commercial contracts and service agreements
  • Review and protection of residential and commercial leases
  • Memoranda of agreement, settlements and amicable resolution conventions
  • Partnership, distribution, supply and subcontracting agreements
  • Sensitive clauses: guarantees, penalties, termination, jurisdiction, price
  • Critical review of draft contracts before signing
  • Adaptation of contracts to the evolving relationship between the parties
  • Advice on the overall coherence of a contractual file

This list is indicative and not exhaustive. Each engagement is calibrated according to the transaction contemplated, the interests at stake and the applicable regulations.
