Contact Us

Phone Call

Quote
We will provide you a firm fixed price quote within 12 hours of our call
Quote Option 1: Basic Check
For the quoted fixed firm price we will review the contract and highlight in the contract (using the ‘comments’ feature in word) the risks, issues or problems with a clause, or sentence or the contract in general. This way you understand the contract you are about to sign and can make an informed decision as to whether you should sign the contract.
Quote Option 2: Comprehensive Check
We review the contract, and make amendments or modifications to the contract to make it more favourable to you (as most contracts are drafted in favour of the party that created the contract). We then insert a comment for the other side, or for the other side’s solicitor, about why we want the change and why the change is reasonable. The comment is therefore similar to a ‘sales pitch’ to the other side ‘selling them’ on why the proposed change is fair and reasonable.This way all you have to do is forward on to the other side the version of the contract that we create for you. Makes your like simple and gets you a better result!
