A contract is intended to serve as the foundation of trust and clarity between the parties who agree.

It’s not a total break from diplomacy or a signal that talks have failed. It’s the next move in a broader negotiation strategy—one with formal rules, procedural rigor, and consequences that demand clarity and preparation. As Partner Richard
