Contract review in San Diego.
Same day. No attorney needed.

San Diego attorneys typically charge $250-$500 per hour for commercial contract review, with biotech and IP specialists often billing at the higher end. A standard NDA review costs $500-$1,000; a biotech research agreement review can run $1,500-$4,000. Kontractually's flat monthly subscription covers unlimited reviews at a fraction of that cost.

California Labor Code Section 2870 protects employees from assignment of inventions that are developed entirely on their own time, without using the employer's resources, and that do not relate to the employer's current or anticipated business. Contracts cannot require employees to assign these inventions. Additionally, California's non-compete ban means IP assignments cannot be used as a backdoor non-compete. Kontractually flags IP assignment clauses that attempt to assign rights beyond California's permitted scope and identifies provisions that may be unenforceable under Section 2870.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by CPRA, requires contracts with service providers handling California consumer personal data to include specific provisions: limiting the service provider to specified permitted purposes, prohibiting selling or sharing personal information, requiring assistance with consumer rights requests, and including a deletion obligation upon termination. For biotech companies, clinical trial data may fall under both HIPAA and CCPA depending on the data type. Kontractually reviews service agreements and vendor contracts for missing CCPA-required service provider terms.
