Butzel Long attorneys discuss Legal Effects on the Automotive Supply Chain during free March 20 webinar
DETROIT, Mich. – Ford, General Motors, and Fiat Chrysler announced the suspension
of North American operations through (at least) March 30. In response to this announcement, the Butzel Long Automotive Legal Team is hosting a free webinar from 9-10 am on Friday, March 20, 2020. To register, visit www.butzel.com/events.
The webinar will focus on the legal rights and obligations of suppliers up and down the supply chain while providing guidance to protecting company interests. The ramifications
to the supplier base loom large. Impacted suppliers should act now and assess their contractual rights, obligations, and potential liability, up and down the supply chain.
