The Short Form Assignment Agreement is designed for use under Swiss law when parties need to execute a straightforward transfer of rights or assets. This document is particularly valuable when a comprehensive assignment agreement would be unnecessarily complex, such as in situations involving clear-cut transfers of intellectual property rights, contractual rights, or other assignable interests. The agreement complies with Swiss legal requirements, particularly the Swiss Code of Obligations, while maintaining brevity and clarity. It's commonly used in corporate restructuring, intellectual property transfers, or when independent contractors need to assign their work products. The document includes essential provisions for the transfer, basic warranties, and governing law clauses, while avoiding the complexity of a full-form assignment agreement.
