What is Escalator Clause?
An escalator or escalation clause refers to a provision that triggers an increase in prices or wages. These clauses are part of the contracts and become activated when parties meet specific conditions. The condition can be inflation rate or cost of living. People leverage escalator clauses to opt for long-term and extensive contracts.
With an escalator clause, individuals also don’t have to worry about future market growth. Essentially, escalator clauses ensure wage increase so long as there is a specific change in inflation. Simultaneously, it protects landlords who may miss out on high rental payments.

- Pro 1: Effective way to forward an offer
- Pro 2: escalation clauses can be different for different sellers
- Pro 3: an objective strategy to stay relevant

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
