What kind of legal advice should I seek before entering into a contract with another party?

Before entering into a contract with another party, it is important to seek specific legal advice from a licensed attorney who is knowledgeable about the relevant laws and regulations in your jurisdiction. An attorney can help you understand and interpret the language of the contract, as well as explain any potential implications or restrictions that may be present. Additionally, an attorney can answer questions regarding how applicable laws may affect the validity of certain terms or clauses in the contract, identify any key provisions that must be included for enforceability purposes, review evidence related to negotiation history before signing, and provide guidance on how changes made by one party should be documented. Furthermore, if there are any dispute resolution procedures in place such as mediation or arbitration clauses within the agreement then legal counsel will also need to review these documents prior to signing. Finally, a lawyer can advise you on possible remedies if either party breaches their obligations under the contract once signed.
