Contracts
Our economic and social relations are based on contracts. However, we are not entirely aware of the time and places we enter into contracts – validating tickets on the bus, doing shopping, lending money to a cousin etc. Not all of these agreements are drawn up in writing, but it does not mean they cannot be the basis for potential claims.
Although the law does not always require contracts in writing, it is advisable to do so. This form definitely facilitates the interpretation of the intentions of the parties and eliminates unnecessary conflicts. For safety, any contracts involving valuables, large sums of money, or unknown people should be drawn up in writing.
If you do not enter into a written contract, remember to save the receipt or invoice. As far as real property is considered, checking its legal status in the perpetual books is advised. And perhaps most importantly, read before signing anything. Do not trust your clients if you do not understand the contract, insist on further clarification of its content, and if it is impossible, consult a lawyer.
Bear in mind that all contracts are different. It has become common to use contracts downloaded from the Internet. If small, simple, low-risk transactions are taken into consideration, using a sample contract from the Internet is acceptable. However, it can be risky because we do not know who has drafted the contract, for whom it has been originally prepared, whose business it protects. As far as more risky transactions are concerned, at least consult the content of the contract with a lawyer.
Our law firm offers the following services:

consulting/interpreting the content of contracts that you intend to sign, so it is beneficial to you.
