Any business needs to enter into commercial agreements. Many of these will be presented to you to sign by suppliers but occasionally you will need to produce your own to set out your terms. I can either review contracts which you have been asked to sign, or I can draft agreements for you.
A company sale is governed largely by pages of warranties and indemnities which allow for the buyer to reclaim some of the price that he has paid in the event that any of those turn out not to be accurate.
Every business should have basic terms and conditions of trade which apply to all relationships with your customers. These determine conditions under which you provide your goods or services.
The Red House Consultancy is a legal services consultancy company operated by Tim Ball. I am a former solicitor with over 30 years of experience in company and commercial legal issues and was, for many years, a partner at the city firm Charles Russell Speechlys.
Back in late 2019, I set up The Red House Consultancy and it’s been trading since that date. It is not a formal law firm but a consultancy whereby I use my significant experience to provide advice.
I no longer practice as a solicitor, I do not hold a practising certificate, operate a client account, or handle any client funds. I, therefore, following the Legal Services Act 2007, do not offer advice on any reserved legal activity such as conveyancing, probate activities or representing you in litigation. I also do not advise on family law issues, debt recovery, commercial or domestic property matters, criminal law and landlord and tenant issues.
I work in and around East Sussex, including Heathfield, where I am based, Hailsham, Eastbourne, Battle, Mayfield, Uckfield and Crowborough.

With confidentiality clauses, If you get the duration wrong, you either lock parties in for longer than the information has value, or you lose protection before the deal completes.
If you are an owner-manager wondering whether now is the moment to sell or to buy, then here’s the short answer: the market is hot again.
In essence, a legally binding contract is any agreement that the law will enforce. That means each party to the agreement is obliged to follow through on their commitments.
