Contract law
Contracts are ubiquitous in the daily lives of individuals and businesses. A simple sales contract imposes certain obligations on the parties involved. Contract law encompasses numerous legal rules that govern all contracts.
The lawyers of the "Valentin Legal Consultation" Association have expertise in contract law and provide support to individuals and legal entities during the stages of negotiation, drafting, and assistance with various contracts. For instance, our lawyers are involved in resolving disputes related to the interpretation and termination of various contracts (service contracts, distribution contracts, contracts related to new technologies, website creation contracts, SEO contracts, etc.). We also advise and assist our clients in debt recovery.
The "Valentin Legal Consultation" Association operates in areas such as (non-exhaustive list):
-
Contractual liability (non-performance of obligations…)
-
Tort liability
-
Distribution contracts (franchise contracts, concession contracts…)
-
Contract cancellation
-
Contract resolution
-
Contract analysis
-
Cooperation agreements between businesses.
Additionally, our articles on the Association's website will keep you informed about the latest legal developments in contract law.
