Agreements

Every business relies on commercial agreements, but they may not always be at the forefront of your mind.

Your business likely has various commercial agreements in place that work behind the scenes. While they may not be at the forefront of your day-to-day operations, it’s essential to ensure these agreements are well-structured, with clear obligations for all parties involved. Properly aligned with your business goals, these agreements provide security and clarity. Understanding their potential impact, especially when things go wrong, is vital. You need to feel confident that your agreements are protecting your business in the best possible way.

Our commercial team is ready to assist. We have extensive experience advising on a range of commercial agreements and understanding their day-to-day implications for your business.

Our specialist commercial solicitors take a solutions-driven approach to commercial agreements. We encourage clients to involve us early, not just for drafting contracts, but also for reviewing and negotiating them. We take the time to understand the commercial drivers of your business and the specific needs of each agreement. If transport is central to your business, we also recognise how certain terms could affect your operator’s licence(s)—an aspect that’s often overlooked but can lead to serious consequences.

We work with businesses of all sizes and have a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by those in the bus, coach, and HGV sectors. We’ll take the time to understand your business and ensure your agreements are set up for success.

Typical commercial agreements we advise on include:

  • Terms and conditions of carriage
  • Terms and conditions of purchase and supply for goods or services
  • Distribution, supplier, purchasing, and agency agreements
  • Outsourcing agreements
  • Franchising agreements
  • Maintenance agreements
  • Joint venture agreements
  • Introduction agreements
  • Confidentiality agreements
  • GDPR arrangements in contracts

Don’t leave your future to chance.

Protect your operator’s licence and business reputation. Whether it’s about compliance issues, vehicle safety, or licensing concerns, we can help you prepare, represent you at the hearing, and work towards the best possible outcome.
