Cooperation Agreement / Letter of Intent
Set up your collaboration properly — as a binding cooperation agreement or as a letter of intent, with clearly separated binding and non-binding parts.
The cooperation/LOI agreement governs the collaboration between two companies. The wizard steers the degree of commitment — from a pure statement of intent, through a partially binding variant (confidentiality and exclusivity are binding), to a fully binding contract — and makes clear that no external civil-law partnership (GbR) with joint and several liability is created (§ 705 BGB).

Who it is for: Companies preparing a collaboration, partnership or transaction and wanting to record the key points cleanly.
For complex fields such as the scope of services or the purpose, you can request a suggestion via the sparkle button — the suggestion stays editable before it enters the contract.
Once created, you can hand the contract to a suitable lawyer from our network with one click — including full text and metadata.
Even a statement of intent can give rise to obligations through expressly binding parts or de facto binding content. For capital-intensive joint ventures and joint IP development, we recommend legal review.
Our templates are ready-made documents that you adapt to your case. They are not legal advice and do not replace a review by a lawyer; we give no guarantee of correctness, completeness or up-to-dateness. Use is at your own responsibility.
