We updated Kokodiili Oy’s contract templates

Kokodiili is a company that provides assembly and installation services for kitchen, home, and office furniture as well as professional renovation, delivered skilfully, on time, and at the agreed location. The company operates in several locations and serves a diverse range of clients.

Lindblad assisted the company in updating its contract templates and general terms and conditions to ensure they were up to date. The objective of the work was to ensure that the contract terms are as functional as possible and aligned with current consumer protection laws.

A large number of small contracts require careful standardization

“Our contracts for construction sites are typically small, but there are many of them,” says Antti Välimäki, the entrepreneur of Kokodiili Oy. “We make a lot of contracts with consumers. The contract templates must be in good condition, otherwise errors start to multiply widely and lead to significant risks. In addition, we aim to be transparent towards our customers, so the terms must be in order.”

“We ended up collaborating with Lindblad based on a previous assignment, and I’ve also gained a lot from their free seminars. Those gave me a good impression of their expertise, which is why I also turned to Minna Ravi, as she seemed like a smart person based on the seminar.”

The process was made easy, and our matters were taken care of completely

“Minna went through our business model with us: who we are and what we do. After that, everything was easy. We sent Minna our current contract templates as background information, and Minna created new ones for us,” Välimäki explains the process.

“Of course, using a lawyer wasn’t entirely free, but it was definitely worth it. The process worked solution-oriented and smoothly,” Välimäki reflects. “Lindblad had a clear commitment to provide us with a useful outcome and ensuring everything was completed properly. Minna made some minor clarifications with us afterward to ensure that the contracts were exactly right.”
