Contract Redline / Negotiation

$2,000
Protect your interests with precise revisions and strategic negotiation.

When a contract requires more than a read-through—when terms need to be adjusted, strengthened, or renegotiated—our Contract Redline / Negotiation service provides hands-on legal drafting and strategic support. We revise the agreement directly, identify and resolve risk areas, and help you secure terms that align with your business goals and risk tolerance.

This service is ideal when you want both clarity and action: a marked-up, negotiation-ready contract that reflects your preferred terms and positions.

Scope of Work
  • Review contract provided by Client to identify risk areas, recommended revisions, and strategic issues
  • Draft redlines and revisions to strengthen protections, clarify obligations, and align terms with Client objectives
  • Conduct consultation with Client via phone/email to discuss material terms, risk allocation, negotiation strategy, and deal dynamics
  • Negotiate with counterparty counsel or representatives, or equip Client with negotiation-ready redlines and positions
  • Finalize contract for execution and circulation for e-signature, ensuring a clean closing package

Contract Review

Understand what you're signing—clearly, confidently, and without surprises.

We help you spot risks, identify obligations, and evaluate whether the terms align with your goals—without engaging in redlines or counterparty negotiations.

This service is ideal when you want informed guidance and strategic perspective, but do not yet need revisions drafted or negotiation support.

Scope of Work
  • Review contract provided by Client to identify key terms, risk areas, and operational obligations
  • Prepare written or verbal feedback summarizing material issues, recommended adjustments, and strategic considerations
  • Conduct consultation with Client via phone/email to walk through risks, business alignment, and potential negotiation points
