About
What are Healthy Contracts
Healthy Contracts are a legal and relational approach to designing agreements. They integrate legal clarity, strategic alignment and care for the relationship between the parties.
Traditional contracts focus mainly on protection against breach. Healthy Contracts also focus on trust, communication, expectations and how people collaborate in practice.
The goal is not only to sign a document, but to create a healthy foundation for working together.
What we do
We help founders, partners and organizations turn difficult conversations into clear, actionable and sustainable agreements.
This approach is particularly valuable when the success of the project depends on trust between people.
- founder and partnership agreements
- long-term business collaborations
- joint ventures and strategic partnerships
- governance and shareholder relationships
About the founder
Healthy Contracts was founded by Simone Guaglianone, an Italian lawyer based in Barcelona.
His work brings together commercial law, negotiation, governance and a human view of the conflicts that emerge in companies and shared projects.
After years supporting international companies, Simone created Healthy Contracts to design agreements that do not only regulate relationships, but strengthen them.
Our philosophy
Business is never just business.
It is always human relationships.
Healthy Contracts is inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's self-supporting bridge: a structure held together by internal balance, without nails or glue.
The strongest business relationships work in the same way. They do not rely only on sanctions, but on trust, alignment and shared responsibility.
For a long time, contracts have been designed to protect parties from each other.
This often turns negotiation into a defensive conversation focused on risk, control and suspicion.
Healthy Contracts starts from a different premise: behind every contract there is a relationship, and the quality of that relationship determines the success of the project.
Because behind every contract there is a relationship.
And the quality of that relationship determines the success of the project.
Methodology
How we work
Phase 1
Relational Discovery
We explore the human and strategic foundations of the collaboration: purpose, expectations, needs, boundaries and real risks.
Phase 2
Alignment
We align purpose, values, expectations, roles, contributions and sensitive scenarios before drafting.
Phase 3
Agreement Architecture
We translate alignment into a clear legal structure that matches the relationship the parties want to build.
Phase 4
Living Agreement
We create frameworks that can be reviewed, adapted and used to support important conversations over time.
Methodological inspiration
Our approach is inspired by Relational Contracting and Conscious Contracts®, methodologies that understand agreements as tools for collaboration.
We combine that perspective with international legal experience and a practical focus on companies, founders and partners.
Agreements are not only legal tools.
They are the architecture of collaboration.
