Negotiations
Most business outcomes are shaped long before anything is signed, or disputed.
Negotiation isn’t about posturing or pressure. It’s about understanding leverage, setting priorities, and knowing where flexibility exists. It’s the contract term that feels non-negotiable, until it isn’t. The deal structure that looks fair, until you test the assumptions.
We help clients approach negotiations with strategy, preparation, and clarity, whether they’re finalizing a deal or resolving a disagreement.
We regularly assist clients with negotiations involving:
Business contracts and commercial agreements
Partnerships, joint ventures, and ownership arrangements
Franchise, licensing, and service agreements
Employment, contractor, and separation terms
Disputes where resolution depends on leverage and timing
Effective negotiation starts well before the first conversation. Our role is to help you define your goals, understand your leverage, and assess risks—so decisions are intentional, not reactive.

Evaluating proposed terms and identifying pressure points

Drafting or revising language to reflect negotiated outcomes

Supporting direct negotiations or engaging on your behalf

Advising on negotiation strategy and sequencing
Not every negotiation needs to be aggressive, but every negotiation benefits from preparation and clarity. We help clients engage constructively while protecting their interests and preserving options if discussions shift.
Whether you’re entering a new agreement, renegotiating existing terms, or navigating a sensitive dispute, we provide steady guidance so you can negotiate from a position of confidence and control.
