Commercial contracts and litigation

Negotiating a company’s commercial commitments, and enforcing them when they are not honoured.

A contract and a fountain pen, ready for signature

Supply, services and partnership agreements, framework agreements, terms and conditions: we negotiate and draft commercial commitments with an eye on the day they may be argued over in court. We then step in when the relationship comes under strain: delays, non-performance, disputed invoices, termination, liability.

Strategy is set by the contract, the parties’ dealings, the evidence available and what the case is worth: a formal demand, summary proceedings, a full claim before the Paris commercial court, or negotiation. We also handle unfair competition and free-riding claims, where securing evidence quickly is often decisive.
