AREAS OF PRACTICE

Commercial law

Drafting a business contract, checking the terms before you sign or waiting for payment? At a consultation in Baku, we can go through the documents and discuss what to do next.

When to speak to a lawyer

You want to check a contract before signing

We’ll look at when payment is due, how delivery or completed work is accepted and how either side can end the contract. We’ll discuss what to clarify before you sign.

A business partner hasn’t kept to the contract

We’ll compare the contract with your correspondence to see which term wasn’t met and what documents could show that.

A payment is late

We’ll check the due date against the invoice and proof of delivery or acceptance, then talk through what you can do next.

What to ask at your consultation

“The client accepted the work but hasn’t paid. Where do I start?”

Have the contract, invoice and proof of acceptance ready. Note when payment was due and what the client said when you last got in touch.

What to prepare for your first meeting

  • The latest version of the contract and any attachments.
  • Invoices, proof of delivery or acceptance, and correspondence with the other side.
  • A short note on the outcome you want.
