Analysis of the business relationship
Characterisation of the established relationship, its duration, stability, and terms (volume of business, potential economic dependence).
Sudden Termination of Established Business Relationships
Independent expertise in quantifying damages from the sudden termination of business relationships. Analysis of the notice period, lost margin, and associated losses.
When is an expert opinion required?
Expert opinions on the sudden termination of business relationships involve analysing the economic consequences of a termination without sufficient notice. They are required when the abruptness of the termination gives rise to compensable damages related to the insufficient notice period.
METHODOLOGY
The damages are assessed by comparing the victim's actual situation to the situation that would have prevailed had sufficient notice been given.
Determination of sufficient notice
Assessment of the notice period that should have been given, based on the duration and nature of the relationship.
Quantification of damages
Assessment of the economic impacts: lost revenue, cost savings, overcharges, lost margin, and any loss of opportunity.
Report and support
Preparation of a memorandum for claimants or defendants, response to opposing arguments, and support in legal proceedings.
Based on the duration and nature of the business relationship, as well as industry practices and any economic dependence.
Lost revenue during the notice period, lost margin, cost savings, overcharges, and loss of opportunity.
The compensable damage does not relate to the loss of the business relationship itself, but only to the insufficiency of the notice given.
