Contract Drafting & Commercial Advisory

Protecting a Growing Business Through Enforceable Agreements

A growing SME had been operating largely on the basis of verbal arrangements and informal understandings with suppliers, contractors, and clients. When a key supplier defaulted on a delivery obligation, the absence of a written agreement left the business without a clear legal basis for recovery. Kaibe and Associates Attorneys was instructed to resolve the immediate dispute and put the client's commercial relationships on a sound legal footing.

We resolved the supplier dispute by relying on implied contractual terms and evidence of prior dealings, recovering a settlement in favour of our client. We then undertook a full review of the client's commercial relationships and drafted a comprehensive suite of agreements — including service level agreements, supplier contracts, non-disclosure agreements, and a standard client retainer. Each document was tailored to the client's specific business model and risk profile, with payment terms, dispute resolution clauses, and intellectual property protections clearly defined.
