Every business, big or small, will make contracts with other businesses. Whether those businesses are suppliers, customers, tradesmen, agents, distributors or advisers, there will probably be a contract of some sort in place. When problems arise, the contract should be the first place to turn - but often, the contract is unwritten, or vague, or simply didn't provide for the situation which has come up. Informal contracts between friends can cause real difficulties after the parties have since fallen out.

Axiom Advocates can provide advice on what your contracts actually mean and what you can do to enforce them - or whether you have any way of escaping them. We can often recommend steps that you can take without going to court or provide authoritative opinions that may help to resolve any dispute. If litigation is called for, Axiom members can represent you and advise you on the best way to fight your corner.

We can also help by reviewing your contracts or your standard terms when they're being drafted. With their experience, and their knowledge of the legal issues, Axiom Advocates can make sure that your contracts give you the best protection possible, in case trouble emerges later on. A well-drafted contract can save time and money in the long run.
