Standard terms and conditions and sale of goods
It is an essential part of any company's risk management procedure to put in place standard terms and conditions for doing business. These help not only to clarify the responsibilities and obligations of the relevant parties but also to allocate risk and remove or reduce liability.
Standard terms and conditions are often viewed as being of low importance to a business and companies overlook them at their peril. They are highly regulated, particularly where sales of goods and consumers are involved.
The Commercial Group has advised clients in a wide variety of industries and for all sorts of products and services on their standard terms and conditions of business, whether dealing with other businesses and/or consumers and on the sale of their goods.
