Sales

Schindhelm provides comprehensive advice to manufacturing companies and sales partners - in particular sales representatives, authorised dealers and franchisees - on all issues of national and international sales law. The focus of consulting extends from the creation of distribution agreements and the enforcement and/or averting of compensation claims by sales representatives to advising with regard to cartel law or representation in court.
