as per all the friendly comments, the "within" could be removing without losing the directness of the phrase. As could the " 's " of contract's;

"from 26 months of the contract start date"

thanks everyone!

agree  liz askew: Definitely "Within" BUT "FROM" the contract start date.
8 mins
  -> thank you for your suggestion...see the amendment above
agree  Noni Gilbert Riley: or even "within 26 months of contract start date" - contract as an adjective here making it a little less wordy
17 mins
  -> thats a great idea... making it esier to read as well... thank you
agree  Myriam S: 26 months before the contract's start date. I think "within" is too vague, it doesn't suggest anytime during the 26 months but rather before. I agree with the rest of the wording you suggest.
19 mins
  -> thank you very much... ive altered it slightly to take in all these helpful commments
agree  NetTra: I agree with Liz.
1 hr
  -> thanks very much NeTra
agree  MikeGarcia: Maybe "effective date" would be better if this is UK legalese...in any case, a very good answer.-
1 hr
  -> thank you very much Miguel... you're right effiective maybe better... my specific legal language is somewhat limited..!
