Main service
Syria's contract law is primarily governed by the Syrian Civil Code (Legislative Decree No. 84 of 1949) — a comprehensive code based on French civil law tradition and Egyptian civil law — supplemented by the Syrian Commercial Code for commercial contracts.

With 30+ years of legal practice and 20,000+ legal matters and consultations, CounselO's contracts team provides decisive guidance for individuals and businesses across Syria.

Experience you can examine
This case study examines CounselO’s role in reviewing a non-disclosure agreement for an international technology project by analysing legal and commercial risks and negotiating more balanced provisions. The review focused on key issues including dispute resolution, the non-circumvention period, the definition of business opportunities, limitations of liability, brand identity protection, and the regulation of future relationships. Most proposed amendments were accepted, while the foreign arbitration clause remained under negotiation. The study demonstrates the importance of specialised legal review in protecting interests and reducing risks before international contracts are signed.
