Contract Lawyer Sydney

  • Civil Disputes & Litigation, Commercial Law
John Bui
/
5 July 22

A contract lawyer Sydney handles, reviews, and drafts contracts for clients. Moreover, they can also provide legal advice and make amendments to their contracts if disputes arise. A contract lawyer in Sydney is also capable of negotiating contracts among disputes. Have you ever tried signing or drafting a contract in a business setting?

Because laws and regulations vary and are constantly changing, it’s essential to hire a contract lawyer in Sydney. This helps people and businesses stay up to date with the law and avoid any legal implications on contracts. Furthermore, a contract lawyer Sydney protects their client’s best interests. This article will discuss these lawyers’ specialties, duties, and responsibilities. 

What Is A Contract?

Contracts are basically legally binding documents that set out the terms and conditions of an agreement. The majority of cases will most likely require all parties involved to sign contracts. Contracts have a great deal of stating a party’s responsibility and duty in an agreement.

Anyone can draft a contract, but it’s best to have a contract lawyer in Sydney to properly draft one. For instance, conveyancing will involve a buyer and seller entering into an agreement about a property’s sale. Buying or selling a home/property will involve a lot of legal documents and inspections.

Thus, a contract lawyer will handle the legal paperwork and ensure that no legal matter may arise in the conveyancing process. Parties can execute contracts orally or in writing. Essentially, people should be aware that a contract has three elements which are:

  1. Offer – An offer refers to a person deciding to purchase something and offering a price in return. Also, a person can give or do something in return (an act of service).
  1. Acceptance – Acceptance occurs when a seller agrees to supply the requested items or services. 
  1. Consideration – Consideration refers to the value that is given in return for the requested items or services. Also, it can be an agreement to pay at a later date after following certain procedures or events. 

Parties signing a contract must act of their own free will and not under due influence. The Australian Consumer Law sets out the rights of consumers and applies to all Australian states and territories. Whether they’re simple or complex contracts, a contract lawyer in Sydney will ensure that all terms and conditions are followed.

Contract Lawyer Sydney: Duties And Responsibilities

Conducting Research

A contract lawyer in Sydney is well aware of a contract’s terms and conditions. Hence, it’s important that they approach contracts with caution and proper research. Furthermore, they will perform legal research about previous cases and laws that may apply to contracts. 

Provide Advice

A contract lawyer may also provide people with advice on what information to include and exclude in a contract. On a larger scale, they can advise executives on what steps to take to ensure compliance with contracts. 

Litigation And Negotiation Services

Not all contract agreements are favourable for a party. Sometimes, a person, a business, or a company may be involved in a contract dispute. A contract lawyer in Sydney can assist if a party breaches a contract. However, not all contract disputes should escalate to court procedures. These lawyers can have disputed parties come to a peaceful agreement through proper negotiations. 

Draft A Wide Array Of Contracts

There are varied contracts that individuals, businesses, and companies can enter into. A contract lawyer in Sydney can draft contracts related to:

  • Real estate transactions;
  • Labour and employment;
  • Real property and intellectual property;
  • Divorce;
  • Property Settlements;
  • Annual Documents; and
  • Business Reports.

These different reports are maintained and all parties are entitled to receive a copy of these contracts. Furthermore, it is their duty to secure and provide easy access to parties who need a copy of the contract. 

Renewals

Eventually, contracts will need to be renewed for certain circumstances. For instance, service agreements may require a renewal for a business relationship to carry on. A contract lawyer in Sydney will be responsible for managing and making sure that parties will comply with renewed contracts. 

Respond And Contact Parties

The processes of drafting, managing, and renewing contracts will require proper communication between parties. A contract lawyer in Sydney is responsible for contacting and responding to parties who have entered into a contract. 

The Benefits Of Hiring A Contract Lawyer Sydney 

There are a lot of situations where a person may need the services of a contract lawyer in Sydney. Firstly, these lawyers will take care of gaps in a contract that can be dangerous in a transaction. Secondly, they can minimise costs by avoiding legal matters that can cause a company or a business to go bankrupt. People should consider hiring a contract lawyer in Sydney if there are instances like:

  • Small businesses using freelancers to perform services on behalf of a company
  • Companies in talks to merge with another company
  • Individuals or a company interested in licensing a company or business’ product. 
  • Real estate transactions
  • Businesses looking for investors
  • Freelancers performing services for a company
  • Divorce settlements
  • Property settlements
  • Contract Breaches

Indeed, these are just some of the common contracts that a contract lawyer can help with. However, it’s important to contact a contract lawyer in Sydney if you’re unsure whether your case needs a contract. Courts will often review cases that need legally binding contracts. This means that any loopholes or missing information can invalidate a contract.
