Contract Review Checklists
Before you sign anything, work through the same clauses our lawyers check on every review — free, checkbox by checkbox. Each checklist covers one contract type, ordered highest-risk clause first.
NDA Checklist
10 clauses to check, 4 flagged high-risk.
NDAs look simple but quietly decide who carries the risk when confidential information changes hands. Our lawyers check the clauses that make a non-disclosure agreement enforceable — and fair to your side of the deal.
MSA Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
A master service agreement governs the whole relationship — every statement of work inherits its terms. Our lawyers focus on the clauses that set your risk ceiling across all future work, not just the deal in front of you.
Vendor Agreement Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
Vendor and supplier agreements decide what happens when service quality slips, prices change, or you need to exit. Our lawyers check the clauses that most often favour the vendor over the buyer.
SaaS Agreement Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
SaaS and software agreements bundle licensing, data handling, and service commitments into one contract. Our lawyers check the clauses that decide what happens to your data, your uptime, and your costs over time.
Service Agreement Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
Service agreements govern how work gets delivered, paid for, and owned. Our lawyers check the clauses that most often cause disputes between service providers and clients.
Employment Contract Checklist
10 clauses to check, 4 flagged high-risk.
Employment contracts set the terms of the relationship long after the offer is accepted. Our lawyers check the clauses that most affect flexibility, compensation, and what happens if things end.
Freelance Contract Checklist
10 clauses to check, 4 flagged high-risk.
Freelance and independent-contractor agreements decide whether you get paid on time, who owns the work, and what happens if a client cancels mid-project. Our lawyers check the clauses that matter most for solo professionals and agencies.
Real Estate Contract Checklist
10 clauses to check, 4 flagged high-risk.
Property contracts carry some of the highest financial stakes of any agreement you’ll sign. Our lawyers check the clauses that decide title clarity, possession timing, and what happens if either side defaults.
Founders Agreement Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
Founders agreements are signed early, when relationships are strongest — which is exactly why the exit and vesting terms matter most. Our lawyers check the clauses that protect the company when a co-founder leaves, disengages, or disagrees.
Investment Agreement Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
Investment agreements set the economics and control terms that follow a company through every future round. Our lawyers check the clauses that decide who gets paid, who has a say, and what happens on exit.
Shareholder Agreement Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
A shareholder agreement governs how a company is run once there is more than one owner. Our lawyers check the clauses that decide control, exit, and what happens when shareholders disagree or a new investor joins.
SOW Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
A Statement of Work translates a broader agreement into one specific, priced piece of work. Our lawyers focus on the mechanics that decide whether that scope actually holds — what counts as done, what happens when it changes, and which document wins if the SOW and its parent agreement disagree.
DPA Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
A Data Processing Agreement sits alongside a SaaS, vendor, or outsourcing contract and sets the specific terms for how personal data is processed, secured, and returned or deleted. Our lawyers check the clauses that decide your actual exposure if a vendor mishandles data processed on your behalf.
Licensing Agreement Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
Licensing agreements grant rights to use intellectual property — a patent, trademark, copyright, software, or brand — without transferring ownership of it. Our lawyers check the clauses that decide how much control the licensor keeps and how much value the licensee actually gets.
Terms & Conditions Checklist
10 clauses to check, 5 flagged high-risk.
Terms & Conditions set the rules between you and your users — what they can do, what you’re liable for, and what happens when something goes wrong. Our lawyers draft each section around your actual product and business model.
Privacy Policy Checklist
10 clauses to check, 4 flagged high-risk.
A privacy policy that just lists generic clauses invites scrutiny, not trust. Our lawyers draft each section around what your product actually does with user data.
