Italian term

e si stipula

Italian to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) Contracts
"tutto ciò premesso, si conviene *e si stipula* quanto segue" - Before committing to something like "Now, therefore, it is hereby agreed as follows", I was seeking a second opinion on the redundancy, or not, of - *e si stipula*.
NB: I know the literal translation is stipulate.

it is agreed "and stipulated"

There is no redundancy. Note that Aldo Gabrielli's "Il Grande Italiano" dictionary defines "stipulate" as: "concludere formalmente un contratto tramite la redazione del documento nelle forme dovute".

thank you
agree Adele Fenstermacher : Actually, "to stipulate" also means to agree, so there is a redundancy. However legal writing (which is a subject that I teach) is often full of redundancies; e.g. "null and void". The modern practice is to use either "agree" or "stipulated" but not both.

it is hereby agreed

As a translation for "si conviene e si stipula". This is Italian boilerplate and as such should not be translated literally but by the English equivalent.
