Commercial Contracts Counsel

Practical contract support for companies that need to move deals forward while keeping their position in mind. We work with growing businesses on the agreements that drive revenue, manage vendor risk, and keep operations clean.

What We Help With

Where Revenue Meets Risk

MSAs and Statements of Work

Master services agreements, SOWs, and order forms for service providers and customers. We help align scope, payment, IP, liability, and termination terms with how the business actually delivers.

SaaS and Subscription Agreements

Subscription terms, online terms of service, and enterprise agreements for software and platform companies. We focus on usage, data, uptime, security, renewal, and exit provisions that match the product.

Vendor and Procurement Agreements

Inbound vendor and supplier contracts, including review of third-party paper and negotiation of changes. We help identify exposure on liability caps, indemnities, data handling, and renewal mechanics.

Non-Disclosure and Confidentiality Agreements

Mutual and one-way NDAs for diligence, partnerships, hiring, and customer conversations. We keep them workable and drafted with enforceability in mind, without slowing down the relationship.

Partnership and Referral Agreements

Channel, reseller, referral, co-marketing, and strategic partnership agreements. We help structure economics, exclusivity, and termination with attention to exit flexibility as the partnership grows.

Templates, Playbooks, and Process

Standardized contract templates and negotiation playbooks so your team is not starting from scratch on every deal. We help define fallback positions and approval thresholds that match your risk tolerance.

Negotiation Support on Live Deals

When a deal is mid-negotiation and the other side has come back with aggressive terms, we step in to help you separate what is truly risky from what is market. We work with sales, finance, and leadership to find solutions that close the deal while working to limit hidden exposure.

Who We Work With

Companies in Active Contract Mode

Growing Companies and Founders

Businesses where contract volume is increasing, terms are getting more complex, and leadership wants experienced counsel to handle agreements without slowing the team down.

In-House Teams That Need Capacity

General counsel and legal operations leaders who need experienced support on commercial contracts during high-volume periods, special projects, or complex negotiations.

Companies Facing Larger Counterparties

Businesses negotiating with enterprise customers, large vendors, or platform partners where the other side controls the paper and the terms need careful review.

Teams Building a Contracting Process

Companies that want to move from one-off contract reviews to a repeatable process — templates, playbooks, escalation paths, and consistent positions across deals.

How Engagements Typically Work

A Clear Path From Intake to Active Work

Step 1
Intake Conversation

A short call to understand your business, the contracts in play, and the outcomes you are working toward. There is no obligation to engage the firm after the call.

Step 2
Scoped Engagement Letter

If we are a fit, we put a written engagement letter in place that defines the scope, fees, and how we will work together. The attorney-client relationship is established at this point.

Step 3
Work Begins

We move into the work — drafting, reviewing, negotiating, or building process — with regular check-ins and clear communication on status, risk, and next steps.

Margolis PLLC attorneys are licensed in Florida and New York. We work with clients located in those states and with companies elsewhere whose matters involve Florida or New York law.
