The Legal Risk Score of a Catering Agreement (Customer is an Individual) Template is Low

Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:

  • There is a risk related to the financial obligations required from the customer, including upfront payments and potential full charges if changes occur close to the event date, which could lead to significant financial exposure if plans change unexpectedly.
  • The document outlines that the caterer will provide services according to industry standards, but does not detail recourse for the customer if the services provided fall below these standards, potentially leaving the customer without leverage if the catering services are unsatisfactory.
  • The customer must ensure that the location and facilities meet certain requirements and that their guests behave appropriately, which introduces a risk that external factors beyond direct control of the catering services could impact the success of the event and compliance with the agreement.
