Distribution law

In today's world of free trade, well organized and well protected distribution networks are crucial to commercial success.

We advise our clients in drafting their distribution agreements (standard terms and conditions of sale/purchase, long term supply agreements, framework trading agreements, agency agreements), especially in the sectors of e-commerce.

We also deal with the setting up and the protection of distribution networks in France and Europe, in particular in the field of selective distribution. We have assisted our clients in the biotechnology sector when needing to ensure that their distribution agreements did not entail any loss of their know-how.

Our litigation department has particular expertise in the termination or non renewal of distribution agreements, and advises our clients on a pre-contentious or contentious basis on how to limit the risks pertaining to such terminations.
