Contracts & Agreements Lawyer in Iran | Iranian Business Law for Expats

For any business or personal transaction in Iran, a well-drafted and legally sound contract is your most critical safeguard. The Iranian legal framework for contracts is distinct and can present unique challenges for non-citizens. Entering into any agreement without a clear understanding of local law can expose you to significant financial and legal risks. At Saeed Naghdi Law Firm, we specialize in providing comprehensive legal services to protect your interests, ensuring your agreements are not only valid but also fully enforceable.

Don’t let a language barrier or unfamiliar laws put your investments at risk. We’re here to provide clear, direct legal counsel. If you’re considering a new agreement or need an existing one reviewed, reach out to us today. For immediate and confidential advice, you can easily contact us via WhatsApp or Telegram.

Contracts and agreements form the bedrock of both personal and commercial interactions. In Iran, these legal instruments are primarily governed by the Civil Code, a comprehensive framework deeply influenced by civil law traditions and Islamic jurisprudence. For anyone operating within this system, whether an individual or a business, understanding the specific requirements for the formation, interpretation, and enforcement of contracts is not just beneficial—it’s essential for avoiding disputes and ensuring legal certainty in all your dealings.

For foreigners and international businesses, this legal landscape presents unique complexities. The principles that govern contracts in your home country may not directly apply in Iran. This is especially true for legal concepts like good faith, the scope of a contract’s terms, and the procedures for dispute resolution. A simple misunderstanding of a single clause or a procedural formality can render an entire agreement unenforceable, leading to costly disputes and significant financial loss. This is why having a clear and precise contract is not just a formality; it’s the foundation of your legal security in Iran.

Our Services: Legal Solutions for Your Property Needs

When establishing a business or pursuing an investment in Iran, a solid legal foundation is essential. For foreign companies and investors, navigating the specific requirements for business formation, joint ventures, and partnership agreements can be a significant challenge. The Iranian legal system requires careful attention to detail to ensure your corporate structure and commercial agreements are fully compliant and legally sound.

Our firm provides comprehensive legal assistance for all types of business and investment contracts, including:

Joint Venture and Partnership Agreements: We draft and review agreements that clearly define the roles, responsibilities, and profit-sharing arrangements between local and foreign partners, mitigating potential disputes.
Investment Contracts: We provide legal counsel on structuring your investments to comply with Iranian laws and protect your capital. We conduct thorough due diligence to identify and mitigate risks associated with your business partners or assets.
Corporate Formation: We guide you through the process of establishing a company in Iran, from choosing the right legal entity (e.g., private joint-stock company) to managing the registration process.

We ensure that your commercial agreements are robust, enforceable, and aligned with your long-term business goals in Iran.

Personal transactions in Iran, such as renting a property, hiring a service, or entering into a private loan agreement, also require legal clarity. While these agreements may seem straightforward, a lack of understanding of local law can lead to unexpected consequences. A poorly drafted rental contract, for example, can leave you vulnerable to disputes with your landlord over rent increases or property maintenance.

Our firm specializes in drafting and reviewing a variety of personal agreements to protect your rights:

Lease and Rental Agreements: We draft or review your lease contract to ensure all terms—including rent, duration, renewal options, and tenant rights—are clearly defined and legally binding.
Service Agreements: We assist in preparing contracts for various personal services, ensuring your obligations and the provider’s responsibilities are explicitly stated.
Private Agreements: We provide legal counsel on other private arrangements, such as loan agreements, to ensure they are legally sound and enforceable.

Protect your personal dealings with a legally vetted agreement. We are here to provide peace of mind in every transaction.

In the fast-paced world of business and personal dealings, being presented with a contract and being asked to sign on the spot is common. However, signing an agreement without a professional review can be a costly mistake. Our contract review and drafting services are designed to be your legal safeguard, ensuring that no clause goes unnoticed and no risk is left unaddressed.

Our services are essential for:

Identifying Risks: We meticulously review contracts to identify ambiguous language, unfavorable clauses, or potential liabilities that could expose you to future disputes.
Ensuring Enforceability: We verify that your contract complies with the Iranian Civil Code and other relevant laws, making it fully enforceable in an Iranian court.
Negotiation Support: We provide clear recommendations and strategic advice to help you negotiate better terms, ensuring the final agreement is fair and balanced.
Expert Drafting: If you need a new contract, we draft a comprehensive and clear document from scratch, tailored specifically to your needs and objectives, ensuring it is legally sound and watertight.
