we provide comprehensive legal services in the fields of trade law and international commercial transactions, offering businesses expert guidance in navigating the complexities of global trade and finance. With extensive experience in international sale of goods, banking law, and commercial contracts, we ensure that our clients’ interests are fully protected across multiple legal systems, including Syrian, English, and French law.
We specialize in advising on cross-border sales agreements, and helping clients draft, negotiate, and enforce contracts that govern the international trade of goods. Our team ensures that contracts are aligned with international standards clearly defining the obligations of buyers and sellers to minimize risks and avoid disputes. For transactions involving shipping and delivery, we provide strategic advice on the application of Incoterms, helping businesses choose the most appropriate terms to allocate risk, cost, and responsibility efficiently.
In addition to sale and shipping contracts, we offer legal counsel on a range of financial instruments that facilitate and secure international trade transactions. Our expertise in banking law covers the drafting, negotiation, and enforcement of Letters of Credit (LCs), which are essential for securing payment in international trade. We guide our clients through the intricacies of UCP 600 (Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits), ensuring that the terms of LCs protect the interests of both buyers and sellers, minimizing risk and providing financial security in cross-border transactions.
We also advise on the use of correspondence bonds and guarantees such as performance bonds, bid bonds, and advance payment guarantees. These financial instruments provide crucial security in international trade, helping ensure that contractual obligations are met. Our team ensures that these instruments are legally robust, clearly defined, and enforceable, safeguarding clients against non-performance by other parties, ensuring that their commercial agreements are backed by the security needed to mitigate risks and provide financial protection in case of default or non-performance. Additionally, we assist businesses in the drafting, enforcement, and collection of promissory notes and debt instruments, which are integral to financing commercial transactions.
