Appointing or becoming an agent or distributor for goods, services or software?

Appointing an agent or distributor requires a high level of trust and involves significant risk for both the principal/supplier and the agent/distributor. Understanding the risks and clearly defining each party's rights and responsibilities in writing is the key to a successful relationship.

Tyler & Co has long experience in crafting agency and distribution agreements that protect the interests of the parties and minimise the possibility of disputes that may lead to litigation.

To help you create strong agency/distributor relationships, Tyler & Co can:

• Assist you in negotiations with the other party;
• Draft agreements that are tailored to your particular agency/distribution arrangement and preferred method of operation;
• Advise you on ways to improve your business procedures; and
• Help you modify your agency/distribution terms if you have experienced problems with the other party to them.
