Practical legal guidance for commercial agreements and business transactions in New York City and surrounding areas.
Well-prepared contracts give business relationships a clear foundation. They define expectations, establish payment and performance obligations, and explain how the parties will address changes or disagreements. Kahn Yuniver Law advises businesses, entrepreneurs, investors, and professionals on drafting, reviewing, and negotiating agreements for daily operations and significant commercial transactions.
We approach each agreement in the context of the client’s business. Our attorneys explain the provisions that carry meaningful risk, recommend terms that fit the relationship, and help clients make informed decisions before committing. The goal is a workable agreement that reflects the deal the parties intend to make.
We prepare new agreements and review contracts proposed by other parties, checking that the documents accurately describe the arrangement and address foreseeable issues. Our work includes:
Contract Negotiations
Our attorneys negotiate with attention to both legal exposure and commercial priorities. We address scope of work, performance standards, acceptance requirements, payment schedules, and remedies for nonperformance. We also negotiate warranties, indemnification, limitations of liability, confidentiality, intellectual property rights, and dispute resolution provisions. Throughout the process, we help clients evaluate proposed compromises and understand their practical effect.
Commercial Transactions and Business Relationships
We assist with strategic partnerships, joint ventures, licensing arrangements, asset transfers, and other business-to-business transactions. Our representation includes reviewing the proposed structure, identifying existing contractual restrictions, and preparing the agreements and related documents needed to carry out the transaction. Where several parties or agreements are involved, we work to align the documents and clarify each participant’s responsibilities.
Risk Assessment and Contract Management
A contractual obligation can affect a business long after the agreement is signed. We assess provisions that may create financial exposure, restrict operations, or conflict with existing commitments. Our review can include exclusivity, assignment rights, compliance requirements, insurance obligations, and ownership or permitted use of work product. We recommend revisions that address the identified concerns and help clients recognize deadlines and obligations that require ongoing attention.
Amendments Renewals and Terminations
As a business relationship evolves, its agreements may need to change. We negotiate amendments, extensions, and renewals, including changes to pricing, services, and performance requirements. When a relationship is ending, we review termination rights and notice provisions, assess potential consequences, and prepare termination or transition agreements. We also address outstanding payments, return of confidential information, ownership of deliverables, and obligations that continue after the agreement ends.
