Contract Drafting & Legal Documentation

MSJC prepares contracts and legal documentation for mandates where drafting quality directly affects leverage, risk allocation, and enforceability. The work is particularly relevant to cross-border and Pakistan-linked mandates involving commercial contracts, EPC suites, FIDIC structures, PPAs, concession agreements, and strategic project documentation.

Drafting Scope

Our work in this area includes:

• Commercial contract drafting across supply, services, investment, and operating arrangements
• EPC and FIDIC documentation for infrastructure and project delivery settings
• Power Purchase Agreements and concession agreement support
• Ancillary documentation supporting financing, performance, and delivery obligations
• Cross-border drafting adjusted for UK and Pakistan execution realities

Drafting Priorities

The drafting exercise is organised around a small number of priorities:

• Risk allocation that reflects actual commercial leverage and project facts
• Enforceability in the relevant governing law and enforcement environment
• Clarity of responsibility across counterparties, milestones, and remedies
• Drafting discipline that reduces ambiguity and downstream disputes
• Documents that can withstand investor, lender, and tribunal scrutiny where needed

Typical Engagements

We are commonly engaged where a mandate requires:

• Preparation of a fresh contract suite for a strategic transaction or project
• Redrafting of weak or inconsistent commercial documentation
• EPC or FIDIC-based drafting support for delivery-heavy mandates
• PPA and concession agreement review where project structure is evolving
• Cross-border documentation where UK-facing standards must work within Pakistan execution conditions
