Contract Law
Drafting, negotiating and protecting against breach of contract — commercial and civil contracts, compensation claims and creditor protection in Bulgaria.
Contract law regulates the contractual and non-contractual relationships between persons. Global Lex Consulting provides legal assistance in drafting, negotiating and performing all types of civil and commercial contracts.
We draft contracts tailored to the client's specific needs and risks — supply, works, lease, loan, leasing, agency, distribution and franchise agreements, intellectual property assignment agreements and many others. We review contracts presented by the other party and identify risks and unfavourable clauses.
In cases of breach of contract, we advise and represent clients in negotiations, mediation and court proceedings for compensation or specific performance.

- Under what conditions is a contract void under Bulgarian law?
- Under Art. 26 of the Obligations and Contracts Act, a contract is void (нищожен) when it: contradicts the law or good morals, has an impossible subject matter, is made without genuine consent, or is aimed at circumventing mandatory law. Void contracts produce no legal effects and either party may rely on nullity at any time — there is no limitation period for nullity claims.
- What compensation can you claim for breach of contract in Bulgaria?
- Under Art. 82 OCA, the non-breaching party may claim direct and immediate losses and lost profits caused by the breach. If a penalty clause (неустойка) was agreed, it is due regardless of whether actual damage is proven, unless the court reduces it as grossly excessive. Statutory interest for late payment accrues from the date the debtor is formally put in default (покана).
