Expert Legal Advice for Non-disclosure Agreement (NDA)
NDAs Legal Services
In today’s competitive business environment, protecting sensitive information is crucial for maintaining a competitive edge and building trust with partners and stakeholders. Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), also known as Confidentiality Agreements, are essential for protecting confidential information shared with employees, clients and business partners.
These legally binding contracts establish a confidential relationship between parties, ensuring that sensitive information is not disclosed to unauthorised individuals.
At Mounteney Solicitors, we specialise in crafting NDAs tailored to meet the specific needs of your business, providing you with legal protection and peace of mind.

What are NDAs?
An NDA, or confidentiality agreement, is an essential legal document designed to safeguard the sensitive information held by your company.
This contract is legally binding between all parties and outlines which information can be shared and which must remain protected.
When to use an NDA
You can use an NDA in numerous business scenarios, particularly when one party wants to avoid disclosing confidential information. For example, if an employee enters a settlement agreement, the confidentiality agreement can conceal the financial settlement’s confidential details alongside the reasons behind the agreement.
An NDA also becomes essential when working with a new supplier or independent contractor who can access confidential information. The contract becomes crucial in safeguarding your intellectual property and business interests, providing legal recourse in case of agreement breaches.
It is important to know that you are entering into a mutual agreement when you and all associated parties sign a confidentiality agreement. Therefore, all parties agree not to divulge or use each other’s protected information for any purpose other than where the agreement specifies.
If you are unsure about the NDA’s terms, we highly recommend seeking legal guidance to ensure you enter into an agreement that protects your best interests.
What should be included in an NDA?
A comprehensive and legally sound document ensures legal protection whilst providing peace of mind that your business interests remain secure. A basic NDA should include the following:
- Names of involved parties
- An outline of the confidential information you wish to protect
- How long the agreement will be in effect
- An obligation that the information is kept confidential by the receiver and only used for legitimate purposes defined in the agreement
- The legitimate purposes for which the receiver can disclose the confidential information and who they can disclose this information to
- How the information will be held whilst in use and disposed of upon project completion
It makes sense to draft your wishes as a starting point, but you’ll need advice to make it legal. If you feel your confidentiality agreement template lacks the necessary provisions or are uncertain about a draft’s unfairness, our expert commercial agreement lawyers can review your agreement. We will ensure it is fit for purpose and, most importantly, protect your interests.
How long will the process take?
We would expect to complete an initial draft of the NDA within a week of taking your instructions, but special dispatch may be available where necessary at an extra charge; this time frame allows us to ensure that we provide clients with a comprehensive and legally sound document whilst thoroughly addressing all necessary details and legal requirements.
At Mounteney Solicitors, we prioritise accuracy and efficiency to meet our clients’ needs professionally and promptly.
