Focuses

Outsourced legal department

As an outsourced legal department, OPPENLÄNDER supports you efficiently by advising and representing you in areas of commercial law. This includes corporate housekeeping, labour law, commercial and distribution law as well as contractual advice and representation in legal disputes. Rely on customised solutions for your company so that you can concentrate on your core business.

Trade & Distribution Law

The contractual organisation of a company's commercial relationships with its sales partners and end customers is at the core of its economic activity and is a natural part of our ‘corporate housekeeping’. We draw up commercial agency agreements, authorised dealer agreements, factoring, leasing and franchising agreements. Standard supply contracts, general terms and conditions or purchasing contracts are also in competent hands with us.

Contracts

The structuring of our clients' contractual relationships with their business/trading partners is one of our main areas of expertise. We always focus on the individual requirements of our clients, taking into account their commercial objectives. Our spectrum includes all types of contracts, from A for general terms and conditions to Z for terms of payment.
