Commercial contracts are the backbone to every successful business, so it makes sense to invest some time making sure that they are clear and say what you think they say.
We draft and advise on all sorts of commercial contracts, including:
- Intellectual property commercialisation agreements (eg. manufacturing, distribution and confidentiality agreements)
- Technology agreements (eg. software and maintenance agreements, escrow agreements, hosting agreements, and website development agreements)
- Media and entertainment agreements (eg. publishing agreements, band partnership agreements, and recording contracts)
- E-Commerce agreements (eg. website terms and conditions, disclaimers, and privacy policies)
- Biotechnology agreements (eg. patent licence agreements, research and collaboration agreements, and material transfer agreements)
- Marketing agreements (eg. sponsorship, endorsement and merchandising agreements)

- undertaking intellectual property audits so that you understand what intellectual property you own

It’s important to stay on the right side of the law when promoting your goods or services to your customers, and when handling their personal information.
