Online Agreement Review Lawyer India | Flat Fee

In short

Before you sign a sale agreement, sale deed or business contract, let an advocate read it. We review your draft, show every change as Word track changes with simple comments, answer your questions and help you finalise it, all online, from anywhere in India, for a flat fee quoted in advance.

Most disputes start from a clause that nobody read carefully. A vague date, a missing payment term or an unfair penalty can cost far more than a review. Our document review service is built to be simple: you send the draft, we send it back with the changes marked clearly, and we stay with you until it is ready to sign. You do not need to be in Bengaluru. We work online with clients across India and abroad.

What documents can we review?

Property: agreement to sell, sale deed, gift deed, release deed, joint development agreement, builder-buyer agreement, lease and rental agreements
Business: service and vendor agreements, partnership and LLP agreements, shareholder and founder documents, NDAs, MoUs, distribution and franchise agreements
Employment: offer letters, employment contracts, consultancy agreements, non-compete and notice-period clauses
Finance: loan agreements, guarantees and security documents

If you do not see your document here, send it anyway. We will tell you honestly whether we can help.

How your reviewed draft looks

We work in Word track changes, so you see exactly what we changed and why.

SAMPLE: HOW YOUR REVIEWED DRAFT LOOKS IN WORD

5. Payment. The Purchaser shall pay the balance sale consideration within a reasonable time after execution of ₹____ on or before ____ (the Completion Date), against registration of the Sale Deed. The Purchaser shall deduct and deposit TDS at 1% as per law and hand over proof to the Seller.

Comment from reviewer: “Reasonable time” is vague and can cause a dispute. A fixed date protects both sides. Please confirm the amount and the date.

Red = removed Green = added or changed Cream box = our comment explaining why.

Answers to your questions

Doubts on the draft are answered until you are comfortable.

What we look at in a sale agreement or sale deed

Names, addresses and capacity of every party, and whether all co-owners are included
Property description, survey or site number, boundaries and measurements, matched against the documents
Price, advance, payment schedule and the date for registration
Who bears stamp duty, registration fee and the 1% TDS (for deals of ₹50 lakh and above)
Possession, khata transfer and handover of original documents
Seller’s promises about clear title, and what happens if they turn out to be false
Penalty, refund and cancellation terms if either side backs out
Clauses on loans, mortgages, tenants, pending cases and dues

This review checks the agreement. If you also want the ownership history verified, we can do a separate title check.

What we look at in a commercial contract

Scope of work, deliverables and timelines
Payment terms, taxes, late payment interest and termination for non-payment
Limits on liability, indemnities and penalties
Ownership of work and intellectual property
Confidentiality, and whether restrictions on you are valid (see our note on non-compete clauses)
Termination, notice, renewal and what survives after the contract ends
Governing law, arbitration or court jurisdiction, and stamp duty

How it works

1. Send your draft

WhatsApp or email the agreement (Word is best, PDF is fine). Tell us your side: buyer, seller, landlord, tenant or business.

2. Get a flat quote

We read the document, understand the effort involved and send you one fixed fee. You pay only after you accept.

3. Receive tracked changes

We return your draft with every change highlighted and a short comment explaining each one in simple language.

4. Ask questions, finalise

Call or message us with your doubts. We help you settle the final version, and can negotiate and finalise it with the other party if you wish.

Flat fee, no surprises

Our fee is fixed after we see your document. It depends on the effort involved: the length and complexity of the draft, the number of rounds you expect, how urgent it is, and whether you want us to speak to the other side. You get the quote before any work starts, and the fee does not grow with the number of emails or calls on the same draft.

To get your quote: send the draft on WhatsApp or email with a line about what you want. We will reply with the fee and the time needed.

Why a review is worth it

Prevents disputes: unclear clauses are the usual cause of court cases
Saves money: correcting a draft costs a fraction of fighting over it later
Saves time: you get an organised list of what to change and what to accept
Gives you confidence: you know what you are signing
Works from anywhere: NRIs and busy professionals can handle everything by email, phone and video

Who uses this service

Home buyers and site buyers before paying an advance
Sellers and landlords who want a balanced draft
Tenants checking a lease before moving in
Start-ups, freelancers and small businesses signing client or vendor contracts
Employees reading an offer letter or exit terms
Buyers, sellers and businesses in other cities and states, and NRIs abroad

Work with us from anywhere in India (or abroad)

You do not need to visit the office or even be in Bengaluru. Share documents on WhatsApp or email, talk to us by phone or video call, and receive the reviewed draft by email. Clients in other cities, other states and abroad use the service the same way. If you prefer to meet, our office is in Malleshwaram, Bengaluru.

What about laws that differ by state? Contract law and most agreement principles are the same across India. Stamp duty, registration fees, land records and approvals differ from state to state. For a property outside Karnataka, we review the agreement and flag the points that depend on local rules, so that you can confirm them with the local Sub-Registrar office or a local advocate. For Karnataka and Bengaluru properties we cover those points ourselves.

Confidential

Your documents and discussions are confidential and protected by professional privilege.

Points to remember

A review advises you on the draft. It does not guarantee how a court or the other party will act.
Reviewing is different from drafting a new agreement from scratch. If you need a fresh draft, tell us and we will quote for that separately.
Negotiation and finalisation: if you need us to negotiate with the other party or their lawyer and finalise the agreement, we do that as well. Tell us when you ask for the quote, and it will be included in the flat fee.
Share the final or near-final version. Review works best before signing, and not after the money has moved.

Frequently asked questions

I live outside Bengaluru, in another state or abroad. Can you still review my agreement?

Yes. Everything is done online by email, WhatsApp, phone and video call. For property outside Karnataka we review the agreement and point out the state-specific items to verify locally.

How much does a document review cost?

We charge a flat fee based on the effort required. Send us the draft and we will quote the fee before starting. There is no obligation.

What is “track changes”?

It is a Word feature that shows each addition and deletion in colour, with comments in the margin. You can accept or reject each change with one click.

I only have a PDF. Can you still review it?

Yes. We can mark up the PDF or retype the key clauses into Word. A Word file is easier and saves time.

Can you review an agreement the other party’s lawyer has drafted?

Yes. This is very common. We check the draft from your side and suggest the changes you should ask for.

Can you negotiate and finalise the agreement with the other party?

Yes. If negotiation and finalisation with the other party or their lawyer is required, we do that too. We communicate your changes, handle the replies and help you reach a final version ready for signing. Tell us when you ask for the quote.

How long does it take?

It depends on the length and complexity. We confirm the time with the quote, and urgent drafts can be discussed.

Do I need a title check as well?

A review looks at the agreement. A title check verifies ownership documents of the property. For a purchase, you may want both.

Is my document kept confidential?

Yes. We treat everything you share as confidential.
