Whether you’re entering a new commercial relationship, reviewing a contract presented by a client or supplier, or need standard trading terms drafted for your business in Wicklow, our Commercial Contract Solicitor service provides expert legal review and drafting at a fixed, transparent fee — entirely online, with no need to visit an office.
Why Commercial Contracts Matter for Businesses in Wicklow
Commercial contracts are the legal backbone of your business relationships. They determine who is responsible for what, what happens when things go wrong, who owns the intellectual property, and how disputes are resolved. Signing a poorly drafted contract — or signing without reading one — can expose your business to significant financial and legal risk. Having a qualified solicitor review or draft your commercial contracts is one of the most important legal protections your business can have.

Contract Review vs Contract Drafting — What Do You Need?
Many businesses in Wicklow find themselves in one of two positions: either they have received a contract from another party and need it reviewed before signing, or they need a contract drafted from scratch to govern a new business relationship.
- Contract review: We read the contract carefully, identify unfavourable or unusual clauses, advise on the risks, and recommend specific amendments or negotiating positions
- Contract drafting: We draft a contract from scratch tailored to your specific commercial arrangement, ensuring your interests are properly protected
Both services are available at a fixed fee. See also our dedicated Contract Review service for uploading existing documents.
Key Clauses We Always Check
When reviewing or drafting commercial contracts for businesses in Wicklow, our solicitors pay particular attention to:
- Limitation of liability: Are the liability caps reasonable? Are consequential loss exclusions appropriate?
- Intellectual property ownership: Who owns the work product, deliverables, or developments?
- Termination rights: Can either party exit the contract, and on what terms?
- Payment terms and late payment: Are payment terms clearly stated and enforceable?
- Force majeure: What happens in the event of circumstances beyond a party’s control?
- Governing law and jurisdiction: Is Irish law specified? Are Irish courts named?
- Confidentiality obligations: Are they proportionate and enforceable?
