At the Law Offices of John R. Reeves, PC, we will draft your contract to suit your specific legal needs. We will review any changes made by the other party and advise you as to your best interests. We will analyze any contract prepared by the other party for you to sign and advise you whether it is in your best interest to sign the contract. We can help you answer questions like:
- Should I sign the contract?
- Am I putting my personal wealth and assets at risk if I sign the contract?
- Are there adequate protections for me if the other party does not perform (breaches the contract)?
- Can the wording of a contract prepared by the other party be changed to better protect my interests?
- How long do I have to enforce the contract?
- Is an oral agreement enforceable in court?
Why have a lawyer review a contract?
Once a contract is signed, its terms usually control, even if one party did not read them closely. A lawyer can point out terms that shift risk to you, such as automatic renewals, penalty and fee clauses, indemnity provisions, choice-of-law and arbitration clauses, and non-compete language, and can suggest changes before you sign.
John R. Reeves reviews and drafts contracts for individuals and small businesses in the Jackson area, including leases, sale agreements, and service and employment agreements.
