Whether you trade online or from a traditional retail premises, terms of business define the legal relationship that you have with your customers. Although statute will assist in certain areas, adopting your own set of trading terms and conditions can have huge benefits.
Our company and commercial solicitors are experts in reviewing, negotiating, amending or drafting terms of business. Whether you are being asked to agree another person or company’s terms of business or if you would like to have your own terms of business drafted, reviewed or updated we can help you ensure that your interests are adequately protected and your legal obligations are being met.
We can advise you on the legal implications of selling to consumers as opposed to other businesses, particularly following the implementation of the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
Once our business law experts have considered how your business operates we can advise how to navigate legislation dealing with payment terms, how to ensure that there is a proper process for product rejection, returns, and refunds, and how it is possible to take advantage of provisions which will allow you to limit your liability if something goes wrong.
