Professional Contract Drafting Services Built for Clarity and Compliance
At CAD Drafters, we provide a full complement of contract drafting services for construction companies, design professionals, developers, and property owners. Our drafting professionals ensure that every contract is explicit, enforceable, and compliant with industry protocols, legal standards, and their specific expectations. Whether your project is a small renovation or a multi-million dollar development, it’s essential to have several well-drafted contracts that operate as a strategy to mitigate risk, avoid disputes, and keep projects moving without disruption.
1. Construction drafting
Our company is experienced in drafting construction contracts in a detailed and precise manner to define each contractor’s and client’s responsibility, including terms of payment, timelines, penalties and project scope. Legally defensible contracts designed to prevent misunderstandings, delays, and out-of-scope expenses are an effective way to protect both clients and contractors.
2. Subcontractor Agreements
Our drafting professionals will draft an agreement with subcontractors that will define the duties and deliverables, including dependencies and additional agreements that comply with the contract between the general contractor and the client. We provide the drafting to allow the general contractor to coordinate the efforts of several subcontractors efficiently with minimal legal issues.
3. Service Agreements
Service contracts can vary from maintenance agreements to consulting services. We provide a service agreement tailored to the unique arrangement formulated by the service provider and client. Service contracts set Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), performance clauses, and liability terms, ensuring accountability for service obligations.
4. Design-Build Contracts
For clients with companies that provide design-build services, we prepare customizable design-build contracts that accurately reflect the two aspects of the agreement. These drafts stress performance coordination, risk allocation, and budget adherence.
5. Engineering and Architecture Contracts
Our team understands how engineering and the architectural scopes differ. We prepare agreements capturing the phases of work, deliverables, ownership of ideas and materials, and client acknowledgement, too protect both the creative and technical elements involved.
6. Project Management Contracts
It is essential to have an understandable contract in place if your project manager will be in charge of the construction schedule, resources, projects, and code compliance. The drafts we provide clarify the roles, levels of reporting, fees, and levels of authority to help minimize confusion.
7. Real Estate Development Agreements
With real estate development agreements for residential, commercial or mixed-use agreements, we prepare agreements that include planning, land use, funding, and construction phasing components. Our drafts are familiar with zoning requirements, local ordinances, and investor expectations.
8. Joint Venture Agreements
We help you create legally binding joint venture agreements that set out what each party is putting in financially, who is responsible for what, ownership of work product, and how parties may disengage. Our documents are designed specifically so each party has a clear understanding of their responsibilities, and we work to resolve conflict at the outset.
9. NDAs and Confidentiality Agreements
To safeguard our clients’ intellectual property and sensitive information, we prepare non-disclosure agreements for developers, investors, and vendors. These agreements are acceptable and tailored to their respective industry and geographic jurisdiction.
10. Procurement and Vendor Contracts
When we prepare a procurement contract, we ensure that the materials or services provided are delivered promptly, to the quality determined in advance, with the knowledge and adherence to stated penalties and warranties. This process establishes a clear path for vendors to fulfill their obligations, enabling the procurement and construction supply chain project to run more smoothly and holding them accountable.
11. Licensing and Permitting Agreements
Suppose your project includes local licensing, utility access, or permits from third parties. In that case, we prepare the agreements that outline the exact compliance obligations and timelines to prevent project delays and regulatory violations.
12. Contract Addenda and Revisions
It is a standard expectation that change, or change orders, will occur in any construction and design project. Based on our work in the construction and development sectors, we prepare the formal addenda and amendments that legally confirm any change in scope, extensions in time, changes in costs, and the reallocation of responsibility.
