About this assignment agreement

This form of assignment is most commonly used when a large number of contracts are transferred from one business to another. This template is for the transfer or assignment of contracts  between two parties.

When to use this assignment agreement

If your multiple agreements do not include this provision, you may still wish to use this agreement and take the small risk that some subscribers or users may walk away. If they do not, but instead carry on as before and make their next payment to the new owner, they are, in law, affirming the contract with the new owner, and all is well.

So a novation should be used where practicable and assignment is the fallback where there is a large number of contracts or where novation is unnecessary because all the contracts permit assignment anyway.

You should use a novation agreement rather than an assignment if all three parties are available and agree. Use: Novation agreement: transfer of service contract.

Reasons to buy from Net Lawman

Full money back guarantee – buy with confidence
This assignment agreement comes with a no questions asked full money back guarantee. You take no risk that it might not be right. Once you buy it, we’ll give you 30 days to evaluate it in any way you want. If for any reason you’re not happy, just e-mail us and we’ll refund your money in full immediately.

Guidance notes included - prior legal knowledge is not required
Comprehensive guidance notes, written by the author of the document, are included. These notes ensure that you don’t need to be a lawyer or have knowledge of the law to understand which paragraphs you should edit to complete the agreement.

Minimal editing required
Like all Net Lawman documents, this agreement has been written specifically in such a way that you don’t need to spend hours editing it. It uses an approach where you remove the sections that aren’t applicable to you, so you don’t have to add any back, write your own, or worry about whether you are using correct legal language.

Paragraphs have been written to stand alone from each other. Removing one that isn’t applicable to your circumstances doesn’t affect the standing of any other in the template.

Plain language minimises future disagreements
Your assignment agreement is real law written in plain language that all parties will understand. This will minimise the likelihood of later disputes.

If a dispute does arise and you find yourself in court, the judge will look more favourably on a legal agreement written in plain language over one peppered with complicated legal jargon. Your case will be stronger if it is clear that both sides understood the document when it was signed.
