Businesses and individuals alike enter contractual relationships on an almost daily basis.

Contracts range from buying a newspaper to multimillion-pound business deals.

Contracts may be written, unwritten, or a combination of the two. Some contracts legally have to take written form, but others can be verbal.

Contractual terms may be clearly stated or implied. They may be implied by operation of law or custom, or for business efficacy. The contract terms might arise from standard terms and conditions or from a previous course of dealing.

When a dispute arises about a contract you will need clear, concise advice about all the above points at the outset.
