Distribution Law
Our many years of experience enable us to provide sound advice in all areas of distribution law. We carefully analyse the initial situation and develop economically successful concepts on a case-by-case basis.
We represent our clients in-court and out-of-court in asserting or defending contractual claims in connection with distribution systems of all kinds in all sectors.
In the course of globalisation, commercial agency contracts with an international dimension are becoming more and more important. Problems often arise with regard to the commercial agent's claim for compensation after termination of the contract. Within the EU, commercial agents are entitled to compensation under Directive 86/653/EEC. Outside the European Union there is more room for manoeuvre. We also support our clients, both contractors and commercial agents, on a cross-border basis with our international network partners.
