OUR MAIN ADVANTAGES

LIMITING LEGAL RISKS

A business contract entails rights and obligations for the signatories. The scope of the obligations for the company depends essentially on the quality of the writing in the contract. It is important to remember that, in case of problems with the interpretation of contract provisions, it is the Commercial Court (the Commercial Chamber of the Court of First Instance in Alsace-Moselle) that has jurisdiction. This court is much stricter than civil courts, because it deals exclusively with businesses. Entrusting the drafting or auditing of a business contract to a specialised legal expert limits your risks considerably.

SETTING YOUR MIND AT EASE

Entering into a business contract can have an impact on the very survival of your company, because if a clause is drafted improperly or a provision is missing, very serious financial consequences may result. But the role of the head of the company is to dedicate himself fully and serenely to running his company well. Using the services of a legal expert specialised in corporate law sets your mind at ease.

SAVING TIME

Corporate law is a highly technical field. Without the help of specialists, much time can be wasted trying to draft or audit business contracts. In any event, that time is not being spent on more important tasks concerning the company’s everyday affairs. And so, having FIBA draft these contracts for you will save you both time and money.
