Where we can help

Personal Contract Types

Small clauses can change your options later. We read them closely.

Employment Contracts

Review pay, notice, probation, restrictive covenants, and other terms before you sign.

Tenancy Agreements

Check rent, repairs, deposits, break clauses, and unusual provisions that may affect your home.

Pre-nuptial Agreements

Set out financial expectations and protect assets with advice suited to your circumstances.

Cohabitation Agreements

Agree who owns what, how bills are shared, and what happens if living arrangements change.

Loan Agreements

Record loans between family or friends, including repayment dates, interest, and missed payments.

Personal Agreements

Get practical help with a written agreement when a standard template leaves gaps.

The value of careful review

Why Use a Solicitor?

Standard templates cannot see the details behind your agreement. They may use broad wording, miss a key protection, or place a duty on you that you did not expect.

Merlin Contracts explains the legal effect in plain English and points out the clauses that deserve a decision. You stay in control of the final terms.

Know the price before work begins.

Fixed-fee options are available for defined drafting and review work, so the scope and cost are clear from the outset.

Client experiences

Hear from People Like You

Good advice makes a document easier to live with.

"The tenancy review found a clause that would have left me paying for repairs that were clearly the landlord's responsibility. I raised it before signing and the wording was changed."

Radulescu Kalinsky, tenant in Hertfordshire

"The explanation of my probation period gave me the confidence to ask for a fairer notice arrangement."

Sahej Nouri, employee in London

"Why did we choose Merlin Contracts? Because the advice was direct, the revisions were clear, and we knew what we were signing."

Caraline Osuch, homeowner in Bedfordshire

Clear advice, clear scope

Personal legal work should leave you informed, not guessing.

Costs agreed early

We explain what the work includes and discuss a fixed fee where the task has a defined scope.
