Understand the commitment before making it
A contract creates a framework for future action. Reviewing it before signing gives you an opportunity to clarify the scope, identify obligations and ask questions while changes can still be discussed.
Consider what happens if performance is delayed, a payment is disputed or the relationship ends. Check that schedules, specifications and related documents are consistent with the main agreement.
A legal adviser can help explain the wording and identify points for negotiation. The review should be tailored to your objectives and the specific transaction.
