International Contract Review

International contracts often include clauses you may not be familiar with because laws differ between countries. This can be difficult to navigate, especially if you're unsure whether the contract can be enforced in Australia. A lawyer can help identify clauses that may be unfavourable to your business and highlight key legal issues that may arise under the contract. This can help you make an informed decision about whether to sign, with a clearer understanding of how the arrangement would work in an international context.

Contracts can be made internationally enforceable by including the appropriate provisions. For example, you may include an international arbitration clause that sets out which country will resolve disputes and how that process will work. Otherwise, the parties can agree on the governing law and jurisdiction of the agreement. This should specify where disputes can be dealt with if an issue arises, and which country's laws will apply to the contract.

Our package starts at $800 + GST and includes a review of the contract by a Sprintlaw lawyer, as well as a walkthrough of the review findings and any key suggested amendments.
