What are the most important aspects of product compliance?

Product compliance is essential for companies that want to bring products to market. It concerns the observance of legal requirements and regulations for products, such as safety and labelling. Companies must ensure that their products meet relevant standards to avoid fines and liability. Topics such as CE marking , quality requirements , product safety , and market surveillance are of great importance here. In practice, this means that companies must continuously adapt to changing legislation, such as the requirements set by EU regulations .

What falls under contract law?

Contract law plays a crucial role in daily business operations. It focuses on the drafting, fulfillment and termination of agreements between parties. A well-drafted contract can prevent legal disputes and offers certainty for both parties. Important aspects are general terms and conditions , liability , negotiations , performance and termination . Every contract must be clear about the rights and obligations of both parties to prevent legal complications. Our partner and contract law attorney can advise and assist you with contractual disputes.

How are disputes and procedures handled?

Disputes and proceedings are often unavoidable when conflicts arise between parties. These conflicts can arise from breach of contract , non-performance or disagreement about the interpretation of agreements. The solution can lie in mediation , arbitration or legal proceedings . It is important to first try to reach an amicable settlement before taking legal steps. If it comes to proceedings, the evidentiary position , litigation strategy and legal argumentation play a major role in determining the outcome.

What does attachment and execution law entail?

The law of attachment and execution is a specific area of ​​law that focuses on securing claims . If someone does not pay his debt, the creditor can take measures, such as seizing the debtor’s assets or income. Subsequently, the seized goods can be sold under execution . Conservatory attachment (securing property prior to a judgment) is also often a necessary step. In addition, there are rules regarding the bailiff and writs of execution with which a judgment can be enforced.

What are the core elements of corporate law?

Corporate law includes all rules relating to the establishment and management of a company . It determines the legal form of companies, such as a BV , NV or VOF , and regulates the internal and external relationships within and outside the company. Important themes are shareholder agreements , directors’ liability , mergers and acquisitions , and corporate governance . Corporate law ensures that companies are legally well managed and that shareholders and other stakeholders can exercise their rights.

How does a debt collection procedure work?

In a debt collection procedure, an attempt is made to collect outstanding debts. The process often starts with a reminder or notice of default , in which the debtor is asked to pay after all. If this is not complied with, the case can be transferred to a debt collection agency or a bailiff . If payment is still not made, legal proceedings may be necessary. The right to interest and collection costs also play a role in this. A good debt collection procedure is aimed at finding a quick and efficient solution to collect the outstanding claim.
