Commercial contract disputes
Commercial contract disputes may arise if the law on a particular subject within the contract is unclear. A well drafted contract can help to avoid any legal uncertainty by including express provisions in order to reduce any application of any uncertain legal rules.
Commercial contract disputes may also arise if the language used within a business contract is unclear. Any business contract should be drafted in clear terms to avoid any potential disputes. A contract term that is unclear may be construed against the party relying on it.
