Develop your litigation prevention tools

Prevent litigation with your distributors rather than suffer it. 

Method to develop your litigation prevention tools

Gouache Avocats intervenes to help you set up the supports and processes necessary for effective contractual management: distributor application files, confidentiality agreements, zone reservation contracts, other preliminary contracts, pre-contractual information documents, distribution contracts, reminder letters, formal notices, standard animation reports, internal procedures.

Our intervention ensures you control the risks related to the pre-contractual and contractual period, the risks of price agreements and restrictive practices, the risks of requalification of the distribution contract. It allows you to have effective contract management tools at the same time.

Gouache Avocats intervenes to train your teams internally on the legal risks related to contracts whose conclusion is entrusted to the development team and the risks related to the execution of contracts for which the network coordination, but also sales or marketing teams are in charge. 

Gouache Avocats is also involved in drafting all the documents related to the usual contractual events: contract renewals, amendments (extension or reduction of exclusive territories, definition of purchase quotas, etc.). 

Gouache Avocats assists you in all pre-litigation situations: constitution and preservation of evidence, construction of positions and files, formal notices, recovery and taking of securities (pledges of goodwill, seizures of accounts, etc.), termination, transactions.

Our intervention to prevent disputes with distributors in your network

We note that the prevention of litigation from the drafting of the contract, if it is accompanied by effective contractual management by risk-trained staff, makes it possible on the one hand to significantly reduce the litigation rate and on the other hand the litigation loss rate.

It is a strategic investment for the promoter of the distribution network.
