Commercial Law
Herrington Carmichael has a team of experienced commercial lawyers that provide a combination of legal expertise and pragmatic commercial awareness.
We are acutely aware that not all projects fit neatly into a standard form of document and that contracts need to be tailored to the specific circumstances and the needs of our clients. Our wealth of experience means that there is very little that we have not seen before, so we are well placed to deal with whatever is thrown at us.
As well as advising clients on standard form terms & conditions for the purchase and supply of goods and services, we are experienced in drafting contracts for specific product sales or individual projects, both in the context of domestic and international markets.
We regularly advise clients on and negotiate complex commercial agreements, shareholder agreements, distribution agreements, nda agreements, confidentiality agreements, outsourcing agreements, manufacturing agreements, SAAS contracts, and managed services agreements to name a few.
Our projects often include an international dimension, and we regularly project manage pan-European and global legal projects for clients from the UK.
We also regularly advise on:
- Pre-contract representation considerations, including in connection with government and local authority tenders.
- Applicable law and jurisdiction questions, particularly when considering multi-national contracting arrangements.
- Price, payment and security for payment issues.
- Retention of title, risk and insurance clauses.
- Incoterms® 2010 considerations.
- Post-termination enforcement issues relating to foreign counter parties.
