Commercial Contracts That Protect Your Position, Not Just Paper.

Every commercial relationship your business enters - with suppliers, customers, distributors, agents, partners or joint venture counterparties - is only as strong as the contract that underpins it. Get the drafting right and you have a document that protects your margins, defines the exit, and closes down the arguments before they start. Get it wrong and you inherit somebody else's liabilities, hand away control, or find yourself locked into terms you cannot commercially sustain.

Blackstone Corporate Law drafts and reviews the full spectrum of commercial contracts, including supply and distribution agreements, services contracts, terms and conditions, agency arrangements, partnership agreements and joint venture agreements. We focus on the points that matter commercially: scope and pricing, payment terms, IP ownership, warranties and indemnities, limitation of liability, termination rights, non-compete and non-solicit provisions, dispute resolution, and - critically for partnerships and JVs - deadlock, decision-making and exit mechanisms. The objective is simple: allocate risk deliberately rather than by accident, and give you a document you can actually enforce.
