Built around your priorities
Before we open the contract, we ask what is riding on it and where you have room to negotiate. The review follows that answer, not a generic checklist.
Contract risk review
Many commercial contracts are signed without being read properly. Hover first.
A Kestrel review sets out what a contract commits you to, where the exposure sits, and what is worth raising. In plain English, before you sign.

Above an AI summary. Below a full solicitor review.
An AI summary is cheapest, and the risk stays with you. A full solicitor review is the most thorough, and usually more than the deal needs. Kestrel is the proportionate option.
We read your contract as a career commercial negotiator would. Liability, price, termination, IP and payment terms all get a finding. Then we talk it through. The decision stays with you.
A senior commercial read
Decades of contract negotiation sit behind every review. We check what a clause says, whether a reasonable business would expect it, and what happens if it is tested.
Clear, usable findings
Every clause category is rated by severity and explained plainly, with wording you can put back to the other side.
