Contract Law

Every contract carries expectations – for security, fairness, and clarity. But when even a single clause is unclear or unbalanced, these expectations may prove illusory. That’s why a contract is not just a document, but legal protection – if approached with attention and expertise.



  • Before signing a contract, whether for purchase and sale of a motor vehicle, real estate, or other property
  • For rental, loan, or leasing agreements, especially if the terms are standard but contain misleading clauses
  • For contracts for work or services, where quality, deadline, and price are critical to the final result
  • For donations or property transfer agreements in exchange for care and maintenance – situations with higher risk of legal disputes
  • When an investor builds “off-plan” – because these contracts often contain conditions that may limit your rights in the future
  • When entering into a bank loan or leasing agreement, to review terms regarding interest rates, penalties, early repayment options, and other important clauses

Contract law regulates what happens between parties when they agree on something – a purchase, service, loan, or task completion. It is primarily governed by the Law on Obligations and Contracts and covers all aspects – from text preparation, negotiations, clause content, to consequences of non-performance or violations. Even a “small” clause can become a source of significant risk if someone convincingly argues that it is unlawful or illegible.



The Silvia Petkova Law Office team offers:

  • Consultations and negotiations before contract signing to avoid unfair terms
  • Preparation and drafting of preliminary contracts and support if court proceedings are needed to declare them final
  • Preparation of specific contracts, including:
    • establishment of real rights over real estate
    • purchase and sale of movable and immovable property
    • rental, loan, work, and service agreements
    • donation, transfer in exchange for care and maintenance
    • pledge, mortgage, guarantee
    • assignment of receivables
  • Preparation of powers of attorney and voluntary representations
  • Legal defense in cases of claims for declaring contracts invalid
  • Representation in contractual liability or non-contractual obligations
  • Claims for compensation in cases of tort
  • Claims for unjust enrichment
  • Protection through revocation and subrogation claims (when assessing whether a person has been wrongfully enriched at another’s expense)
  • Because we take an individual approach to each contract – no clause is underestimated
  • Because our experience includes claims, disputes, and protection of interests for both companies and individuals
  • Because we know how the law is applied not just “on paper,” but in court practice – what is allowed and what is rejected
  • Because with us, you know your contract will have clear, fair, and protected terms
