Agreement Check
Read it before you sign it.
Send an agreement before you sign it, and an advocate reads it clause by clause: what it commits you to, what is missing, and what to change. The fee is shown inside the check, before you pay anything.
What the advocate reads for
Every promise, and every way out of it.
-
Who is bound, to what
The parties, what each must do, and whether the words actually say it.
-
Money and dates
Payments, deposits, interest, penalties, and the dates each one falls due.
-
How it ends
The term, renewal that happens on its own, notice periods and termination.
-
When things go wrong
Liability, indemnities, caps on damages, and who carries which risk.
-
Where a dispute goes
Courts, arbitration, the seat and the law that governs the agreement.
-
What is missing
Stamp duty, registration, signatures, annexures, and the clause that should be there.
What to expect
How a check runs, step by step.

Questions
Asked often, answered plainly.
The report is the advocate’s reading of one agreement. Whether to sign stays your decision.
What kinds of agreement can be checked?
The agreements people and businesses sign every day: services and supply contracts, employment and consultancy agreements, leases, loans, and shareholders’ or partnership agreements, among others.
Who reads it?
An advocate of the firm, who reads the agreement and signs the report. The fee pays for that advocate’s time.
What does it cost?
The fee is shown inside the check, before you pay, and nothing is charged until you agree to it.
Does the report tell me whether to sign?
It tells you what the agreement commits you to, what is missing and what to change. Whether to sign is your decision, and the advocate can talk it through with you on a call.
Before you sign
One agreement, one written report.
For a wider question than one agreement, the advocates’ desk is open as well.
