🧑‍⚖️ What does a “contract review” mean?

A review is not just proofreading. It’s a legal analysis that:

• verifies compliance with current law

• identifies missing or invalid clauses

• highlights risky language or gaps in protection

• recommends changes to improve legal certainty

📋 How the review process works:

1. You send the document (e.g., PDF, Word)

2. You receive comments or change suggestions in tracked mode

3. If needed, we schedule a consultation to discuss specific edits

4. You get final recommendations for signing or next steps

❌ When a review is no longer enough

• Outdated or incomplete contracts (e.g., templates older than 5 years)

• Agreements lacking clear content or purpose

• If you’re unsure what the contract covers — and what it doesn’t

• When the document is a “patchwork” of various templates

In such cases, I recommend drafting a new contract instead of a review – it’s often more effective and even more cost-efficient.

📚 Real-life example:

A man signed an employment contract downloaded from a website. A “friendly lawyer” looked it over.

Later, the court ruled it was a disguised freelance arrangement (“švarcsystém”) due to missing clauses. He was fined over CZK 200,000.
Why? The review wasn’t professional – it was just a casual read-through.

✅ Lawyer’s recommendation:

A contract review is a great first step if you already have a document and want certainty.

It’s a fast, accessible service – and if I see that a complete rewrite is better, I’ll tell you and suggest the next steps.
You’ll always know in advance what the review includes and how much it costs.
