Our multi-disciplinary Commercial Contracts team advises international and domestic corporate clients, financial institutions and public sector bodies across the entire spectrum of contractual arrangements and at all stages of the contractual life-cycle from strategic planning and structuring to procurement to contract negotiation and drafting to advising on termination, renewal or transition to dispute resolution and enforcement.
We have an extensive
depth and breadth of experience and expertise from across a broad range of
specialist practice areas. Our lawyers are trusted business advisers and
first-rate legal practitioners. They bring

relationships, protect against risks and cushion against the downside. Our
client-focused approach, commercial acumen and understanding of our clients’
business is critical to our success and we are known for our capacity to
