Before starting Nex Legal, our Founder spent years managing procurement teams at a global miner and before that was a commercial litigation lawyer for years!

He has sat in the room where contracts are written, negotiated, and used to manage millions in spend. This gives us unique insight in how big clients structure their terms, what they're designed to protect, and where suppliers (particularly small to mid sized suppliers) get caught out. On the other side, he has seen what happens when contracts fail and disputes end up in court. That combination and experience means we don't just review your contract as a legal document. we read it as someone who's operated on both sides of the table and knows where the real risk sits.

A contract review done by most lawyers is generic. The usual suspects will be flagged - indemnities, liabilities, intellectual property, warranties (lawyer talk for promises) etc etc.

We understand that context is important and must be understood. Without this, any contract review is being done in a vacuum. Most lawyers will read your contract give you a clear, plain language breakdown of all the risks. We do that. That's a no-brainer.

Where we're different is that we will look at these risks and the operational terms within the contract to make sure it makes sense for your business: how you do work, how you operate. This makes sure that the deal you struck is represented in the contract you sign.

We charge fixed fees — no hourly surprises. But the number depends on what you need, and we won't pretend otherwise. Book a call, tell us your situation, and we'll give you a clear price upfront.

Yes. That's exactly when most people call!

Book the call, walk us through what you're looking at, and we'll work out the fastest path to getting you comfortable with what you're signing.

You walk us through the contract, what's keeping you up at night, and what you're trying to achieve. We tell you where we think the risk sits. We map out what comes next and what it costs. By the end, you'll know whether this is the move.

No. Our Principal spent years managing global procurement teams on the buy side of a global miner. Before that he was a commercial litigation lawyer for years. We know how the big end of town structures these contracts and have a good sense of where risk sits and how to avoid disputes down the road.

We will tell you straight what you're dealing with. If the contract is fine, we'll say so. If it's not, you'll know exactly why.
