Principal-Distributor Relations

We provide strategic advice on distributor and sales representative agreements, with special emphasis on the various issues surrounding the Puerto Rico Dealer’s Act and the Puerto Rico Sales Representatives’ Contracts Act, which protect Puerto Rico distributors and sales representatives from arbitrary termination or impairment of their relation and which have generated substantial case-law. Our attorneys assist businesses in structuring distribution networks, and drafting and negotiating distribution agreements. We also represent clients in disputes surrounding principal-distributor obligations, and dealer termination or impairment.  Our lawyers have vast experience, in a wide variety of industries, negotiating, mediating, arbitrating and litigating principal-dealer disputes, including injunction hearings, trials and appellate proceedings.
