Our Salt Lake City and St. George, Utah contract lawyers help business clients create—and if necessary, defend—contracts and agreements
Commercial contracts and agreements are an essential part of any Utah business. They allow businesses to purchase and sell goods and products, lease the facilities needed for operations, use technology to conduct operations, protect intellectual property, and form solid employment relationships with key management.
We draft, negotiate, and review all types of agreements, including those involving purchases and sales, employment, non-compete, shareholder matters, distribution, agency agreements, intellectual property and license agreements, joint ventures, and franchise agreements.
As contract lawyers, we often represent clients in creating unique agreements to cover specialized needs, situations, and requirements. We know the key to drafting effective contracts for our clients is clearly identifying all parties’ obligations to the agreement, including what is to be done, how it is to be done, and by when.
We take the time to conduct ample due diligence and ask the necessary questions to address all major issues. With years of experience, we are adept at identifying areas where a contractual relationship might not work as originally intended and developing contractual provisions to protect our clients in such circumstances. While no contract can anticipate every unforeseen event or address every potential contingency, we endeavor to protect our clients as best as possible according to the size and importance of the contractual matter at hand.
