Commercial contracts and agreements underpin almost all business relationships in the transport and logistics sector. The likelihood is that the commercial agreements with your customers, suppliers, contractors and agents will govern your business model. Whether these were drafted on your behalf or not, it is crucial that you understand both the content, implications and constraints of these agreements.

Our commercial transport and logistics team take a no-nonsense, commercial approach to drafting or renegotiating your contracts and agreements.  Whilst our ultimate aim is to offer you good business protection, we also understand the human aspect to any business relationship and always negotiate with an eye on maintaining and advancing your commercial relationships.

We can:

  • Review any new agreements you are being asked to sign and advise you on any risks and implications, and on your options,
  • Seek to renegotiate existing agreements and contracts on your behalf,
  • Draft entirely new contracts for you to use both within your business and with third parties.
