agentlaw seminar – Principals and agents, suppliers and distributors

 

We invite you to join us for our annual agentlaw seminar on Thursday 28 November, which will be held in person at our offices at 10 Finsbury Square.

The topics we will cover include:

1. When is an agent not an agent?

Samirah Haujee considers who or what is an agent in the publishing industry, the travel sector, and the wider commercial world... and how you can become confused when dealing with a commissionaire agent.

2. Knowing and deciding: how not to break an exclusive distributorship or supply agreement

Veronique Bergau looks at a recent Court of Appeal judgment and why deciding to induce a breach of an exclusive distributorship agreement can be a breach of a director’s statutory duty.

3. When commission is payable and why the fact that the principal has not been paid is no excuse for not paying commission

Ashkon Camyab looks at the entitlement to commission of a commercial agent and why urban myths still abound concerning the Commercial Agents Regulations.

4. Repealing the Commercial Agents Regulations

Stephen Sidkin brings us up to date with the latest position. 

The seminar will be chaired by Stephen Sidkin, partner and chair of the agentlaw team at Fox Williams.

After the formal presentations, there will be an opportunity to ask questions of the speakers and then to network over drinks and canapés.

There is no charge for this seminar.
