Besides representing franchisors that are involved in product distribution, Lathrop GPM regularly represents other manufacturers and suppliers of products with the myriad legal issues involved in the distribution of goods.
We understand that your success as a manufacturer or wholesaler depends, in part, on our ability to limit your product liability and other vicarious liability exposure, to efficiently manage your distribution network, to police and control distribution, sales, advertising and warranty services, and to minimize or avoid litigation. We are also aggressive advocates whenever disputes arise in the supplier-distributor relationship.
