You drive along carefree until you have to stop suddenly &#8211; but the brakes don&#8217;t respond. An accident is inevitable.  <\/p>\n\n    <p>The same is true in the business world.<\/p>\n\n    <p>A law firm can help you in two ways:<\/p>\n\n    <ul>\n        <li>By advising you to avoid legal pitfalls, rather like a good mechanic checking your brakes. Legal counsel can help you understand complex regulations, ensure your company&#8217;s compliance, protect your rights, manage risks, and draft and review contracts. It can also give you a head start in negotiations, and help you avoid mistakes that could cost your business dearly in the future.  <\/li>\n\n        <li>By defending you when a dispute arises, similar to car insurance after an accident.<\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n\n    <p>The services are complementary, and our firm offers both.<\/p>\n\n    <p>Indeed, a company&#8217;s first contact with a lawyer is often through litigation. The financial outlay involved in seeking legal advice often forces the entrepreneur to postpone this expense as long as possible. <\/p>\n\n    <p>However, in most cases, with a prior investment in consultancy services, litigation could have been avoided.<\/p>\n\n    <p>In such cases, the company is obliged to invest in resolving the dispute, and then to entrust us with a consultancy mission to correct the contract or practice that gave rise to the dispute, so that it does not recur with another business partner or employee. In this case, the cost is doubled for the company, which also runs the risk of not emerging victorious from the dispute. <\/p>\n\n    <p>Litigation cannot always be avoided, even with early legal advice, but its chances of occurrence can be significantly reduced. If it does occur, litigation can be made far less painful by the reassurance of having acted in accordance with the law, and a far greater chance of victory. <\/p>\n\n    <p>Our legal advice is therefore as follows: it is better to invest in advisory services from the outset, so as to establish your company on a solid legal footing, than to endure litigation that could jeopardize the development of your business.<\/p>\n\n    <p>Some examples of avoidable litigation:<\/p>\n\n    <ul>\n        <li>Business law :\n            <ul>\n                <li>Conflictual termination of a contract whose obligations and conditions of termination were poorly negotiated beforehand<\/li>\n                <li>Non-payment for services whose price or performance has not been clearly agreed in writing (quotation, contract, etc.).<\/li>\n            <\/ul>\n        <\/li>\n\n        <li>Employment law :\n            <ul>\n                <li>Non-compliance with a conventional termination procedure: failure to approve a conventional termination, failure to meet deadlines. The risk: invalidation of the contractual termination as a dismissal without real and serious cause. <\/li>\n                <li>Implementation of a fixed-day contract for an employee under the Syntec agreement, even though he did not have sufficient autonomy and was not a manager with a minimum 3.3 grade (before the reform).<\/li>\n            <\/ul>\n        <\/li>\n    <\/ul>\n\n    <p>Contact us for a free legal audit of the legal documents your company needs to implement.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3324027 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3324027\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;boxed&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc66197 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"fc66197\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"350\" src=\"https:\/\/www.avocat-desrumaux.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/gavel-and-calculator-with-the-word-audit-2023-01-06-22-26-55-utc-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5566\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.avocat-desrumaux.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/gavel-and-calculator-with-the-word-audit-2023-01-06-22-26-55-utc-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.avocat-desrumaux.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/gavel-and-calculator-with-the-word-audit-2023-01-06-22-26-55-utc-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.avocat-desrumaux.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/gavel-and-calculator-with-the-word-audit-2023-01-06-22-26-55-utc-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.avocat-desrumaux.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/gavel-and-calculator-with-the-word-audit-2023-01-06-22-26-55-utc-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.avocat-desrumaux.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/gavel-and-calculator-with-the-word-audit-2023-01-06-22-26-55-utc-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"100vw\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[49],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7990","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business-law"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.10 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Consulting and Litigation: Prevent or Cure?
