The Legal Risk Score of a Sale of Goods Agreement (Short Form) Template is Low
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- The agreement stipulates that ownership of the goods transfers immediately upon signing the agreement, which could be risky if the buyer has not yet inspected the goods or if delivery is delayed.
- The seller is required to deliver the goods by a specified deadline, which could pose a risk if there are unforeseen delays or issues in logistics that prevent timely delivery.
- The buyer's ability to return the goods is limited, as returns are only permissible with the seller's reasonable consent, potentially leaving the buyer with unwanted goods if the seller refuses consent.
