Question 1

What is a legal contract review?

Accepted Answer

A contract review involves an Solicitor reading through your contract with context in mind of your circumstances, and pointing out where there are any red flags, concerns and/or recommendations that you should consider before signing or otherwise agreeing to the contract.

Question 2

What exactly does our Tenancy Agreement review entail?

Accepted Answer

Our contract review service is designed to give you a snapshot of the legal concerns relevant to your Lease Agreement. We are here to give you confidence to either proceed or to ask the right questions to ensure that your position is protected. Our lawyers carry out detailed reviews and provide commentary in lay terminology in annotations within the document. You can choose what to do with this advice: either you can ask us to amend the document, ask us for further advice and assistance in regard to negotiation strategy or you can use our comments to bolster your negotiation position with the other side. Either way, our snapshot will give you the valuable insights you need to move forward.

Question 3

What are some typical considerations for the review?

Although each Lease Agreement review is unique, and different aspects will be taken into account depending on your specific context, here are some common aspects that we might consider: Lease Term (start and end dates, renewal or early termination provisions), Rent and Adjustments (amount, calculation, and provisions for rent increases), Operating Expenses and CAM Charges (tenant's responsibility for common area maintenance costs, taxes, insurance, utilities), Leasehold Improvements (whether tenant can make improvements, who pays, and removal requirements), Maintenance and Repairs (responsibility for different parts of the property), Security Deposit (amount and conditions for return), Default and Remedies (conditions that constitute a default and available remedies), Assignment and Subletting (whether tenant can assign or sublet), Insurance (types and amounts required), Indemnity Clauses (liability provisions), Use of the Premises (restrictions and prohibited uses), Options (to renew, expand, or purchase), Dispute Resolution (process for resolving disputes), Force Majeure (provisions for unforeseen circumstances), Compliance with Laws (tenant's responsibility to comply with relevant laws), and Condition and Delivery of the Premises (condition for delivery and return).

Question 6

What if my contract has already been signed and I am looking to get an opinion on my legal position of this signed contract?

Accepted Answer

If your contract has already been signed, and you are looking to get guidance on a specific situation that has arisen, not to worry, you can still use this review service in the same manner, but in the field which reads 'Is there any information that you would like to bring to our attention about this contract', please insert the specific points that you are looking to have the guidance center around.

Question 7

What if it transpires that my Commercial / Residential Tenancy Agreement needs to be fundamentally amended after the review?

Accepted Answer

Our review service is designed to identify issues and concerns within the document or contract.

Whether you proceed with such amendments is obviously at your discretion.

Question 9

Can I ask clarifying questions to my solicitor about the review?

You also have the option, as an optional extra, to schedule a 20-minute consultation with your Solicitor if you would like to clarify any questions during an online consultation.

Question 10

What if I would like AirCounsel to assist with contract negotiations?

Accepted Answer

Once your contract has been reviewed, it may be necessary to negotiate amendments with the other party/ies to the contract. This might take the form of amendments being effected to the contract itself by our Solicitors, email correspondence being sent by us to the other party/ies with our proposed amendments, or a call / online meeting with the other Party/ies to discuss & negotiate. Once reviewed, and if necessary, we will provide you with a quote to attend to the negotiations.

Question 11

Does the review also include amendments being made to the contract?

Accepted Answer

Our reviews entail pointing out issues and concerns, and as such, does not ordinarily include actual amendments being made to the contract or document, which amendments are normally quoted for separately. However, you can order an hour of amendments as an optional extra during the checkout process.

Question 12

How do you measure page length?

Accepted Answer

Page length is measured in Tahoma font, size 11, 1.5 line spacing. If you are uncertain how to do this, feel free to send the agreement via live chat or email for us to measure it for you.

Question 13

What if I am uncertain how to measure the length of my contract or document?

Accepted Answer

No issue. Upload the contract as is and select the page tier that you think is correct. Once the order is received, we will then measure it in our measuring font. Should it measure much longer than the tier ordered, we will simply revert to you with the shortfall payment link in order for you to make a payment corresponding with the correct page length tier.

Question 14
