Disputes in the automotive supply chain can escalate quickly, especially when production disruptions, customer relationships and significant financial exposure are at stake. In this video, Michael Brady, co-chair of Warner’s Automotive Industry Group, examines the key factors automotive suppliers should evaluate when deciding whether a dispute has reached the point where litigation may be necessary.
Drawing on his experience handling automotive supply chain litigation and counseling matters daily, Michael discusses how suppliers should assess the strength of their legal claims and defenses, the risk of interrupted part supply, the potential impact on OEM and customer relationships, and the overall cost-benefit analysis of pursuing litigation. He also highlights the importance of working with experienced automotive counsel who understand the industry, the supply chain and the operational realities suppliers face when disputes arise.
