Establishing and optimising a legally compliant distribution system requires clear contractual frameworks and strategic structuring. Whether you are working with commercial agents, authorised dealers, or franchisees, it is essential to ensure that your agreements are legally sound, economically viable, and compliant with competition law. Inadequate contracts or unclear provisions can result in significant financial and legal risks.
Common challenges in distribution law include:
- Drafting legally sound contractual frameworks for various distribution models (commercial agents, authorised dealers, franchisees)
- Designing and reviewing remuneration structures and commission agreements
- Regulating non-compete clauses and exclusivity agreements
- Reducing liability risks and avoiding false self-employment classifications
- Protecting the company against insolvency risks involving distribution partners
