Areas where Crest’s team has expert knowledge:

All notes below are indicative only and are not to be relied on as legal advice.

  • Often a contract has been put together like ‘Frankenstein’ from pieces of historical contracts that worked for various jobs. This is not always optimal for the task at hand where the purpose may better suit a tailored approach. Crest can help you focus the purpose and re-cast the documents.

  • It is common for a contract to be written to ‘cover every scenario’. That is not always advisable if you need to negotiate swiftly or need to build trust from day 1 of your negotiation. Crest has can help you to design a contract that covers the core risks you see and that builds less friction with your counterparty on things that are not the focus.

  • A simpler contract that is fit for purpose can save negotiating time. Crest can help you review what you are using and recommend ways to optimise your process and documents.

  • Crest’s team has experience simplifying standard and more customized documents and is well placed to advise you, including on ‘out of the box’ challenges.
