Our Approach
A contract review that gives you an answer, not more questions
Practical analysis designed to help you understand the deal, identify the risks and decide what to negotiate.
We review the agreement
We assess the contract in the context of your commercial objectives, not simply clause by clause in isolation.
We identify the risks
Material legal and commercial issues are highlighted so you know where attention is actually required.
We provide redlines
Where appropriate, we propose practical drafting and fallback positions you can take back to the other party.
You receive an issues list
Key issues are separated from the noise and translated into clear commercial consequences.
We talk you through it
Your fixed-fee review includes a 20–30 minute debrief, depending on document length.
Commercial Risk

The provisions that matter depend on the transaction. Our review focuses on the clauses that can materially affect your rights, obligations, risk exposure and ability to operate.

Frequently Asked Questions
Commercial contract review FAQs
How much does a commercial contract review cost?
Fixed-fee commercial contract reviews start from £169 + VAT for a document of up to 20 pages on our standard three-day turnaround. Pricing varies according to document length and turnaround time.
How quickly can you review my contract?
Our standard turnaround is three days. Two-day fast and next-day express review options are also available, subject to capacity and the nature of the agreement.
What do I receive after the review?
Fixed-fee reviews include proposed redlines where appropriate, a risk/issues list and a 20–30 minute debrief depending on document length.
Can you negotiate the contract for us?
Yes. Negotiation support can be added after the initial review. This can include written negotiation points, calls and further drafting or redline cycles depending on the engagement.
What types of business contracts can you review?
We review a broad range of commercial agreements including MSAs, SaaS and technology agreements, NDAs, supply and procurement contracts, consultancy agreements, distribution agreements, DPAs, shareholder documentation and many other business contracts.
Can you review a contract before I sign it?
Yes. Pre-signature review is a core part of the service. Reviewing the agreement before execution gives you the opportunity to understand material obligations and negotiate provisions before becoming bound by them.
Do you support businesses outside London?
Yes. Covenant Advisory Group is based in London and provides remote commercial legal support to businesses across the UK and, where appropriate, on cross-border commercial matters.
Is Covenant Advisory Group a law firm?
Covenant Advisory Group Limited is an independent legal consultancy providing non-reserved legal services. We are not an SRA-regulated law firm and do not undertake reserved legal activities. Where a matter requires reserved legal services or specialist jurisdiction-specific regulated advice, we will make that clear.
Have a contract waiting to be signed?
Send us the agreement and tell us what you're trying to achieve. We'll confirm the appropriate review scope, fee and turnaround before work begins. Fixed-fee reviews start from £169 + VAT.
