Our manufacturing clients face ever-increasing financial, commercial and legal challenges. Every manufacturing agreement has its own individual features but certain themes recur on a regular basis - product liability and related insurance issues, exposure to weaknesses in the supply chain and economic factors outside the client's control, the need to protect intellectual property rights and continuity of supply.
The team at Bevan Brittan recognises that in this environment an over-legalistic approach is not appropriate and is therefore careful to provide common-sense advice that takes into account the complex risk and relationship factors that influence manufacturing agreements. We have particular experience in advanced manufacturing processes and the manufacture of high-tech components, and advise clients in industries ranging from surface and sealing technologies to the manufacture of mobile telecommunications devices.
