Loan-for-Use Agreement

“It’s just lending a car to a friend – nothing complicated…”
And yet, loan-for-use agreements (výpůjčka) often lead to disputes between people who trusted each other.
A lost item, damaged equipment, or a “forgot to return it” excuse — all of these end up in court under the Civil Code.

If you want peace of mind, have your agreement drafted properly – or let me review the one you’ve been given.
You’ll know exactly where you stand and avoid misunderstandings that could cost you time and money.


💡 When a Loan-for-Use Agreement Makes Sense

  • lending a movable thing (car, machine, tools, office equipment)

  • loan of real estate (flat, house, land, office)

  • company property temporarily lent to employees

  • family or internal company loans for free use

  • short-term use of property without rent


⚖️ How I Can Help

✍️ 1. Drafting a Loan-for-Use Agreement

I prepare a custom agreement that protects both sides and clearly defines:

  • what exactly is being lent and for what purpose,

  • who is responsible for damage or loss,

  • how and when the item must be returned,

  • early termination options,

  • evidence clauses (e.g., handover protocol with photos).

🕐 Usually ready within 2–3 working days.


🔍 2. Reviewing an Existing Agreement

I’ll review the contract you received from another party (a company, landlord, or acquaintance).
You’ll find out whether it’s balanced and safe, or if it contains clauses that might put you at risk later.
Each review includes a short legal summary explaining what to amend or clarify.


⚔️ 3. Dispute Resolution and Enforcement

If the item hasn’t been returned, was damaged, or is being used without permission:

  • I prepare a pre-litigation demand letter,

  • represent you in negotiations,

  • file a lawsuit or restitution claim,

  • and handle the entire case in court if needed.

➡️ In many cases, issues can be solved amicably, without lengthy court proceedings.


💬 Common Mistakes I See

  • verbal agreements with no written evidence,

  • unclear purpose of the loan,

  • no record of the item’s condition,

  • no clear termination clause — leading to endless disputes.

🧠 Lawyer’s advice: even a short-term, “friendly” loan should be written down. It saves stress, time, and money later.
