According to expert practitioner Adam Vereshack, because of their complex and ongoing nature, “the legal backbone of every [distribution] arrangement should (must) be a written agreement that sets out the rights and obligations of the supplier and the distributor.”
His new volume, A Practical Guide to Distribution Agreements, offers a detailed analysis of that “legal backbone,” with valuable insight informed by many years of experience.
A Go-To Resource
Because distribution agreements cover a diverse range of products and are applicable across the commercial sector, A Practical Guide to Distribution Agreements is essential reading for anyone providing or purchasing goods for distribution. It not only includes an in-depth discussion of the numerous complex issues that can arise in distribution agreements, but also provides step-by-step guidance through the elements of a proper distribution contract – from the parties and the structure, to the scope of the agreement.
Written and organized in a practical way so readers can easily access the key provisions or points they are looking for, this go-to resource for drafting and understanding distribution agreements also features:
- Comprehensive coverage: Readers will find all the important elements and considerations required for an effective distribution agreement
