BUSINESS PRACTICE AREAS
Commercial & business law
Structuring your commercial relationships and defending your interests in performance and in disputes alike.
Our approach
A commercial relationship is largely shaped by the contract behind it: termination terms, transfer of risk, warranties, dispute resolution. These provisions, often overlooked at signing, become decisive when the relationship deteriorates.
We draft and negotiate your commercial contracts, secure your distribution networks and handle debt recovery and litigation when performance falls short. The aim is to resolve disagreements at the contractual stage, before they reach court.
What we do
- Drafting and negotiating commercial contracts
- Distribution, franchising, agency and dealership
- General terms and conditions of sale and purchase
- Commercial leases and business goodwill
- Debt recovery and enforcement
- Commercial litigation before the commercial courts
Frequently asked questions
Do our general terms of sale really protect us?
Only if they were brought to the other party's attention and accepted, and if their clauses withstand judicial scrutiny. We audit both their content and how they are accepted, which matters just as much.
How can we recover an unpaid debt?
Through a step-by-step approach: formal notice, negotiating a payment plan, then court proceedings and enforcement if necessary. We first assess the debtor's solvency so that costs stay proportionate to the real prospect of recovery.
Can an established commercial relationship be ended?
Yes, but the conditions and notice period must be handled carefully, or you may incur liability. We check the applicable contractual framework and organise the termination to limit your exposure.
