Contract Drafting & Negotiation in Oxford.
Robust commercial contracts that protect your interests and move deals forward.
Locally relevant context.
We see the same patterns repeatedly with Oxford-area businesses: contracts that were fine at start-up stage no longer reflect how the business actually trades, or weren't pressure-tested for the deal sizes coming through today.
From science and tech spin-outs around the Oxford Science Park and Begbroke, to consultancies and creative businesses around Jericho and Summertown, Oxford's commercial activity is unusually concentrated and unusually varied. The legal needs of a 12-person AI start-up off Botley Road look very different from a long-established Headington consultancy — but both benefit from the same thing: an adviser who picks up the phone.
Contract Solicitor FAQs.
- We have a contract template — can you just pressure-test it?
- Yes. A focused review of an existing template is one of the most cost-effective things a growing business can do. We'll identify the clauses that carry real risk and the language worth tightening.
- Is your work covered by SRA regulation?
- Yes. Radcliffe Enterprise Law is a regulated firm and our work is subject to the SRA Standards and Regulations.
- Do you only work with businesses in Oxford?
- No — we work with businesses across Oxfordshire, the Thames Valley and the Oxford-to-Cambridge corridor, and remotely with clients further afield. Most matters can be handled without ever needing to meet in person.
