Sales Agreement (Goods Supply Contract)
A Sales Agreement establishes the legal framework for the sale and supply of goods between parties, setting terms for pricing, delivery, and risk transfer. This playbook examines key negotiation points including warranties, payment terms, and remedies for breach.
Dispute Resolution
Negotiation strategy
Ensure the dispute resolution clause aligns with the company's strategic interests and minimizes potential legal costs. Opt for jurisdictions with favorable laws and consider mediation as a first step to avoid litigation.
Negotiate for a neutral venue and governing law that does not disproportionately favor the company. Advocate for clear mediation and arbitration processes to ensure fair treatment.
