Contracteren nut en noodzaak

I’ll be writing various blogs on the subject of contracting. After all, there’s a lot to say and write about this topic. That’s why there already are many books and so much legislation and case law covering it. I will confine myself to those aspects of contracting that are relevant to the everyday practice of a company and I will keep it brief and practical. After all, they’re blogs.

To give you an idea of which topics I will be covering, I have listed a (non-exhaustive) summary below:

• How is an agreement concluded?
• What do you need to do if things lead to a discussion?
• The need for clear contractual clauses and what to do if they are unclear or contradict each other for example?
• The need to indicate the order of precedence between the different contractual clauses.
• Terminating negotiations: what is and what is not allowed? And what are the consequences?
• Who is allowed to sign the agreement and what happens if the signatory is not authorised to represent the company?
• Which reservations (e. g. suspensive or resolutive) are often encountered in practice and what is their effect?

My blogs are intended to shed some light on the subject. If this interests you, please make sure to follow us on LinkedIn and Twitter and/or read our newsletters. To receive the newsletters, please register on our website: www.pharosadvocaten.nl.
