Contract Review & Drafting, item by item.
Every engagement is scoped to what you actually need. These are the matters Eight Law handles most often in this area.
Contract review
A clear read on risk, in plain English.
- A prioritized issues list: what matters, what's standard, what to ask for
- Redlines with explanations you can share with the other side
- Review of liability, indemnity, IP, payment, and termination terms
- Quick reads on routine agreements
Contract drafting
Agreements written for your business, not a generic template.
- First drafts that put your terms on the table
- Reusable templates for recurring deals
- Amendments, renewals, and extensions
- Termination and notice letters
Negotiation support
Moving the deal forward.
- Talking points for your negotiation
- Negotiation directly with the other side, if you prefer
- Closing out open issues and final versions
Signs it's time to call.
How it's billed
Many contract reviews and defined drafting projects can be quoted as a flat fee once we see the document. Extended negotiations are usually hourly with an estimate. Regular contract flow fits an outside general counsel retainer.
- You've been sent a contract and the deadline is close
- You keep signing the other side's paper
- A deal is stuck on a few clauses
- You need a template you can reuse with every customer
- Something has gone wrong and you need to know your rights under the contract
