Commercial Agency law
Are you a commercial agent under EU law? If so, there are certain rights that you are entitled to, especially if the company you are working for decides to terminate you. The regulations define a commercial agent as:
“a self-employed intermediary who has continuing authority to negotiate the sale or purchase of goods on behalf of another person, hereinafter called “the principal”, or to negotiate and conclude such transactions on behalf of and in the name of the principal”.
We have acted for a number of commercial agents assisting them to get a positive outcome to issues that have arisen in their dealings with their principal.
Terms & Conditions of business
It is absolutely crucial that all companies have standard terms and conditions (T&C’s) that they trade under. We are here to assist our clients to ensure that they have T&C’s that are tailored to their needs. It is also important that they ensure that their T&C’s are accepted by their customers. We our here to assist you with this often over looked but important paperwork.
