NDA & confidentiality agreements solicitors

At Moore Barlow, our dedicated commercial contracts team understands the importance of protecting sensitive business information.

Whether you’re sharing an idea with potential investors, partners or suppliers, or you’re looking to safeguard trade secrets during negotiations, a well-drafted non-disclosure agreement (NDA) or confidentiality agreement is essential.

Our experienced solicitors work with businesses of all sizes to create bespoke agreements that protect your interests and preserve your competitive edge. With a deep understanding of commercial law and sector-specific knowledge, we ensure your confidential information remains secure and legally protected.

What is an NDA or confidentiality agreement?

An NDA, or non-disclosure agreement, is a legally binding contract used to protect confidential or proprietary information shared between parties. Also known as a confidentiality agreement, it outlines what information is to be kept private, how it can be used, and the consequences of unauthorised disclosure.

NDAs are commonly used in business dealings such as negotiations, partnerships, mergers and acquisitions, or when sharing intellectual property. They can be mutual, where both parties agree to keep information confidential, or one-way, where only one party is disclosing sensitive data. Ensuring your NDA is precise, enforceable and tailored to your commercial objective is critical to its success, which is where our solicitors can help.
