Legal drafting of contracts

Legarithm is not about writing better analogues of existing draft contracts. You can be sure that each of our contracts is a legal document, customized to your situation and your goals, which will provide comprehensive protection of your interests and guarantees that your counterparty performs its obligations.

What kind of contracts do we make for clients?

CONTRACTOR CONTRACTS

SLA (service level agreement), SA (service agreement), MSA (service agreement), NDA (non-disclosure agreement), RFP (request for proposal), SOW (statement of work) and other contracts are just a few of the types of contracts you will enter into with your contractors.

With our experience, we can tell you what to look out for and help your business grow without the worry that your contractors will let you down or expose you to legal liability.

CONTRACTS WITH CLIENTS

This type of contract is the flip side of contractor contracts, here you, our client, are in the contractor’s shoes. As in the previous case, we can show you from our experience where the risks are hidden and what you should pay attention to.

Why involve lawyers in the creation of contracts when you can download a draft from the Internet?

The IT business involves constant interaction with counterparties from different jurisdictions. In addition, it is likely that your company will also be registered in one of the foreign jurisdictions.

Imperative norms, which cannot be changed by the consent of the parties, are categories of cases in which it is impossible to choose the place of dispute resolution – this is only a small part of what can be encountered in multijurisdictional legal relations in the IT sphere.

Despite the above, the Internet is overflowing with examples of various contracts, usually of poor quality, the use of which carries many hidden risks: they may be prepared in accordance with the norms of outdated legislation, do not meet the goals of your company, designed for use in other countries, may contain provisions that are harmful to your interests and much more. We, in turn, do not offer one package of identical standard contracts for all our clients, despite the widespread practice of such actions in the market.

Legal support of labor relations and relations with the individual entrepreneur

“Hiring de jure independent contractors and de facto employees” sound familiar? Most likely you decided to hire independent contractors (registered as IEs in their country of residence) as developers under service contracts for your company registered in the United Kingdom, Estonia, Delaware, California, or any other jurisdiction.

Have you bypassed the system by getting rid of the enormous amount of social security benefits that the government requires you to provide to your employees? Certainly yes, but are you sure that tomorrow the local labor market regulator won’t ask you why there is only one director of the company?

We are not suggesting that you give up your usual work models, but we advise you to update them in a more thoughtful configuration by contacting the experts. We can help draft employment contracts that will fully comply with legal regulations and protect the interests of the company.

Legarithm attorneys have significant experience in creating the most optimal systems of relationships with permanent employees, contractors and individual entrepreneurs.
