Contract Law

New Jersey Contract Law Attorneys

Contracts lie at the heart of every successful business. Whether you are negotiating or getting ready to sign a partnership, shareholder or operating agreement, a commercial lease agreement, an employment agreement or a manufacturing license, you need to have confidence that the provisions are right for your business goals and also provide a smooth exit strategy.

We are justifiably proud of our contract practice, as we have contributed to the local jurisprudence through the imminent publication of the treatise on Contracts commissioned by the New Jersey Institute of Continuing Education's ("ICLE"); which this firm authored at the express invitation of the New Jersey ICLE. This publication will serve as the essential reference on the topic in New Jersey. We thank ICLE for its vote of confidence in our reputation and abilities.

The business lawyers of Alpert Butler & Weiss, P.C., in West Orange, New Jersey, have experience in contract law, across a broad range of industries and professional practices. When drafting or reviewing a contract, we go beyond the fine print. By striving to develop long-term relationships with our clients, we get to know how a contract will impact their business objectives, now and in the future.

Simple and complex contracts

Often, contracts involve much more than two parties signing a document. We have experience in dealing with agreements from the simplest to the most complex and sophisticated. We have represented individuals, sole proprietorships, groups, associations, LLC's, partnerships, and corporations, both in the drafting of contracts and in viewing the litigation aftermath of defective or careless drafting. That retrospective view can be crucial to drafting for avoidance of serious disputes--or, if disputes cannot be avoided,--avoidance of serious litigation disadvantage.

We handle a full range of contract law issues:
