Contract review by a lawyer
Before you sign, have your contract reviewed. The firm identifies risks, unbalanced clauses and the points to renegotiate, with clear recommendations.
A contract review keeps you from signing an unfavourable commitment. You understand what you are signing and what needs to be corrected.
You receive a structured memo, ranking the risks in order of importance.
The need
You are asked to sign a contract you do not fully understand.
An unfavourable commitment is hard to undo once signed.
The risk
Penalising clauses, excessive liability, no way out.
What you accept today binds you for the long term.

Critical reading, identification of risks and renegotiation recommendations.
You decide to sign, negotiate or refuse with full knowledge of the facts.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions

The analysis identifies and ranks the legal risks; the proofreading corrects and improves the text directly. The two can be combined.

Yes, a structured analysis memo with the points of vigilance and our recommendations.
Can you then negotiate for me?
Yes, the firm can take charge of renegotiating the identified clauses.

Testimonials
What our clients say
Had a consultation with Me Cora Maglo about my Luxembourg Blue Card application. She explained everything clearly: the process, timeline and documents I need, and helped me with my wife’s family reunification too. Honest and practical advice. I felt confident after talking to her.Farshid Pourlatifi
J’ai beaucoup apprécié le service de Maître Maglo : son sérieux, sa sympathie, son professionnalisme et sa disponibilité. Toujours répondu rapidement et clairement, avec des conseils pragmatiques, sans pousser à des procédures longues et coûteuses lorsqu’elles ne sont pas justifiées.Nathan Wirtzfeld
Super assistance and great support! Highly recommend. All my questions were answered, Cora and her team kept me updated all the time. I will definitely reach out to them next time for my residency.Tatiana
