Legal
From ensuring that the correct legal structures are put in place at the outset, to structuring your partnership agreement, to negotiating and drafting commercial agreements every day (such as sale, sureties, loan agreements, leases etc). It is vital that every business owner fully understands this and the legal implications of these agreements and structures and has access to industry specialists who can help guide them through these agreements and processes and give them sound practical, commercial legal advice.
With specific reference to the purchase and sale of sites, PetroCONNECT Legal offers the services of drafting site-specific sale agreements to ensure that both the seller and purchaser are fully protected in the sale process.

As part of drafting the sale agreement, PetroCONNECT Legal will in addition attend to draft all necessary resolutions on behalf of the buyer and seller to effect the necessary sale transaction, submitting Section 34 advertisements to the Government Gazette as per the Insolvency Act 24 of 1936 and drafting of all necessary agreements to incorporate any amendments required by both parties.
