Terms & Conditions

Your terms and conditions protect your business every time you sell goods or provide services. They define responsibilities, manage risk, and reduce the chance of disputes. Clear, properly incorporated terms give you certainty and confidence, so you can focus on running your business, not resolving avoidable problems. If you would like to review or update your terms and conditions, we can assist you.

Bespoke drafting

Your contracts should reflect how your business actually operates. We draft tailored terms and conditions that align with your services, customers, and risk profile. The result is a practical, commercially focused contract that supports your growth and protects your position when challenges arise.

Terms and conditions audits

Outdated or poorly drafted terms can leave you exposed. We review your existing terms and conditions, identify weaknesses and recommend clear, enforceable improvements. We also advise on proper incorporation, ensuring your terms are legally binding from the outset and not vulnerable to challenge.

Reviewing another party’s terms

When presented with another business’s terms and conditions, it is important to understand the risks. We can review and provide concise red flag reports or manage full negotiations on your behalf. Our focus is simple. Protect your interests while keeping your commercial relationships moving forward.

Questions we’re often asked

What is limitation of liability?

A limitation of liability clause sets a financial cap on what your business may have to pay if something goes wrong. It must be reasonable and compliant with the law to be enforceable, but when properly drafted it provides legitimate and important protection.

Can a business draft its own terms and conditions?

You can, but without legal knowledge it is easy to overlook key protections or include clauses that are not legally valid. Template terms rarely reflect how your business actually operates. Taking

Can we include terms on an invoice?

Usually, that is too late. A contract is often formed before an invoice is issued. If your terms were not clearly communicated and accepted at the right stage, they are unlikely to be enforceable. We can help you implement the correct process.

We have used Blacks for the past 20 years, both personally and in business and have always had a professional, reliable service.
