Contract Analysis and Clause Review

A contract can look straightforward while placing important obligations in definitions, exhibits, renewal language, termination clauses, warranties, indemnity provisions, or dispute-resolution terms. LegalWhat can help organize those provisions for review.

Analyze a Legal File

Identify the parties and obligations

Confirm who is bound, what each party must do, what must be paid or delivered, when performance is due, and what conditions must occur first.

Find risk-shifting clauses

Indemnity, limitation of liability, warranties, insurance requirements, personal guarantees, liquidated damages, and attorney-fee provisions can materially affect risk.

Check termination and renewal

Automatic renewal, notice periods, cure rights, termination for convenience, termination for cause, and post-termination obligations should be identified before a dispute arises.

Review governing law and disputes

Choice-of-law, forum, venue, arbitration, mediation, jury-waiver, and notice provisions can determine how and where a dispute must be handled.
