Clients regularly turn to Sheehan Phinney to guide them through the range of issues that arise when they enter into commercial relationships with parties across the country and around the world. Whether the matter is a simple supply agreement or a long-term distribution agreement, Sheehan Phinney attorneys have the skills and experience to help craft agreements that will provide a firm foundation for long-term working relationships. We work closely with our clients to understand the needs of their businesses, and to create solutions that are timely, innovative and pragmatic.
For many businesses, commercial contracts form the backbone of their operations. Agreements with vendors ensure that a business has the goods and services needed to operate; agreements with customers and distributors allow a business to sell its goods and services into the market. If these agreements are prepared with care and with a clear understanding of the client's needs, they can not only help a company achieve its business goals, but also help prevent misunderstandings between the parties and provide a framework for resolving disagreements that may arise in the course of any ongoing business relationship.
Among the legal issues that may arise in negotiating a commercial contract are Uniform Commercial Code compliance, protection of intellectual property rights, insurance coverage concerns, antitrust compliance, import and export requirements, and domestic and international tax matters. Sheehan Phinney's seasoned attorneys can provide skilled guidance in addressing all of these issues, as well as the industry-specific concerns that affect many clients. Our attorneys are also regular writers and lecturers on topics related to commercial contracts.
