The Distribution Law Center was founded to make specialised knowledge on distribution law easily accessible to practitioners, businesses, academia and students. Over the years, it has also evolved into a unique network of experienced lawyers who advise companies on distribution law issues across Europe. By bringing together specialists from 27 jurisdictions, the DLC offers businesses access to coordinated legal support on matters that require a cross-border perspective.
Businesses operating across several countries often face different national approaches to distribution and competition law issues. Through the DLC network, we can coordinate reviews of distribution practices across multiple jurisdictions, providing a consolidated overview of legal risks and recommendations.
Our contributors advise manufacturers, suppliers, platform operators, distributors, and retailers on a broad range of issues, including:
Keeping commercial teams informed is essential. DLC contributors regularly provide training sessions tailored to the needs of legal, commercial, sales and management teams, helping businesses understand and apply distribution law rules in practice.
We organise practical workshops and leadership sessions on new developments in EU and national distribution law. These sessions focus on translating legal developments into actionable business guidance.
For businesses operating internationally, the DLC provides a unique gateway to trusted local expertise. Rather than engaging multiple advisers independently, clients benefit from coordinated advice delivered through a single network of specialists.
Our strength lies in combining local expertise with a European perspective. Whether a company requires advice in one jurisdiction or across an entire distribution network, the Distribution Law Center provides access to specialists who understand both the legal framework and the commercial realities of distribution.
