Notwithstanding that freedom of contract is the prevailing principle in Finnish contract law, certain provisions of contracts may still be subject to mandatory regulations.

MK-Law has advised its clients with the preparation of numerous different types of contracts, including sales, supply, procurement, distribution, agency and other similar contracts. We also conduct and represent our foreign clients in contract negotiations in Finland in the extent it is possible without the client’s participation. Further, if your company has a standard contract template that you wish to use, we may review it for you to ensure that Finnish laws and business practice is taken into consideration in necessary extent.
