Contract Law

A well‑drafted contract prevents problems. Contract language must be precise and understandable. Ambiguous or confusing clauses are rarely a sign of complexity — they usually indicate a lack of skill on the part of the drafter. Drafting contracts is one of our core areas of expertise.

Professionally prepared contract templates and general terms help facilitate transactions and manage risks. A clever lawyer can draft terms that shift nearly all liability to the other contracting party. However, a good commercial lawyer does not necessarily recommend such entirely one‑sided conditions. A strictly legal perspective may overlook commercial realities — business considerations and the continuity of business relationships must also be taken into account.

We prepare a wide range of contracts on a daily basis, including employment contracts, shareholders’ agreements, various service agreements and framework agreements, as well as deeds of sale ranging from ordinary real estate transactions to complex business acquisition agreements. We assist our clients in contract negotiations and in disputes arising from contracts. We prepare high‑quality agreements in both Finnish and English.
