Contract Law
Advice on contract formation, formal requirements, default, penalty clauses and the consequences of termination, together with contractual litigation.
Contract law deals with the formation, interpretation and performance of the agreements that define the parties' rights and duties. Form and validity, performance and default, adaptation and termination are its core headings.
