Commercial Contracts for Your U.S. Business
You have agreed on a price and want to move forward. But the document also needs to explain what you are buying or providing, when payment is due, and what happens if the arrangement changes.
LOIGICA drafts and reviews commercial contracts for businesses and investors with interests in the United States. We help you connect the written terms to the deal you intend to make and work through questions before you commit.
Tell us about the transaction, your role, and any deadline.
What Commercial Contracts Address
Commercial contracts set out the terms of a business relationship or transaction. They can address the exchange of goods or services, a business collaboration, or arrangements involving an investment.
The useful starting point is what each party expects to happen. A contract should address the agreed work or transaction, each side’s responsibilities, and the procedures that apply if circumstances change.
A short agreement can still involve significant commitments. We assess the document in the context of your plans rather than relying on its length or title.
When Your Business May Need Contract Support
You may want help when:
For example, a client may request extra work after approving a project. The agreement may need a way to authorize changes and adjust the price. We help identify those practical questions during drafting or review.
Terms That Deserve Attention
What exactly must each party provide? We review descriptions of work, delivery milestones, acceptance procedures, and dependencies. If one party must supply information or approvals, that responsibility should be clear.
We examine when invoices become due and how the proposed terms address deposits, expenses, or disputed charges. For international arrangements, currency and payment mechanics may also need attention.
We consider how the parties may approve extra work, revised deadlines, or other changes. Informal discussions can leave uncertainty about what changed and who agreed. The document can establish a practical approval process.
Depending on the transaction, the review may address liability limits, indemnities, confidentiality, and ownership or use of work product. We explain what the proposed wording asks your business to accept.
We review the duration, notice provisions, and conditions for ending the relationship. We also consider what happens afterward, including outstanding payments and obligations that continue after termination.
Applicable law, court selection, and arbitration provisions can affect how a dispute proceeds. We discuss these terms in the context of the parties and transaction. Their effect requires review under the relevant law.

Business Contract Drafting and Review at LOIGICA
If you need a new agreement, we begin with the proposed transaction and the terms you have discussed. We identify unresolved points, prepare the agreed draft, and explain the wording for your review.
If another party prepared the document, our business contract review examines it against your objectives. We discuss identified concerns and recommended revisions within the agreed scope. You can ask how a proposed change would affect the deal.
Supporting documents matter too. A proposal, order form, or schedule may contain terms that conflict with the main agreement. We identify which materials belong in the review before starting.
Direct commercial contract negotiation is an additional service. The drafting or review engagement includes revisions and recommendations as agreed; it does not automatically include contacting the other party.
How We Work With You
We discuss what each party will contribute, your priorities, and any points already agreed. Tell us whether a document has been signed or performance has begun.
We identify the documents, legal questions, and work needed. We explain the proposed scope and fee, including how revisions will work and whether negotiation requires a separate engagement.
We prepare the agreement or examine the existing draft. We raise questions where instructions, supporting materials, or the commercial terms need clarification.
We explain the proposed wording and address your feedback. If the other party sends further changes, we clarify whether reviewing that version falls within the engagement.

Commercial Agreements With International Parties
Tell us where the parties are based and where the goods, services, or investment activity will be located. We also need to understand which entity is entering the agreement and who will sign for it.
International sales of goods may raise questions about the application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Other arrangements involve different rules. The contract type and locations help determine which questions need specialist review.
We address the U.S. issues within our engagement and identify where foreign counsel or tax advisors should participate. If you have versions in different languages, bring that up before drafting or review begins.
Why Work With LOIGICA
You need advice that relates to the transaction you are trying to complete. We discuss the commercial purpose behind the wording and explain the choices that need your attention.
The aim is a document you can use in the relationship: to understand responsibilities, handle proposed changes, and refer back to the agreed terms. We make room for questions before you approve a draft.
Discuss Your Business AgreementFrequently Asked Questions
Can you review the other party’s standard contract?
Yes. Tell us your role and what matters most in the transaction. We can assess the draft and recommend changes. The other party may accept, reject, or propose alternatives to those revisions.
Can you adapt a contract we have used before?
Yes, after reviewing whether it fits the new transaction. Different parties, activities, or locations may require changes even when the arrangement seems similar.
Does the service include direct negotiation?
Direct negotiation can be contracted separately. We clarify who will communicate with the other party and what support is included before that work begins.
What determines the fee?
The transaction’s complexity, document length, supporting materials, and requested work affect the fee. Revision rounds and negotiation may change the scope. We discuss the proposed fee before starting.
What if there is already a breach or dispute?
Tell us what has happened and whether you have received a notice or deadline. Contract drafting and review do not automatically include dispute representation. We assess the need for a separate engagement.
