Law/Patents
German term or phrase: Nachfolgeagenturen
agency agreement

The Client needs the Agency's written consent for
"Überlassung oder Lizenzierung an Dritte, insbesondere Nachfolgeagenturen zur Weiterbearbeitung"

I think 'successor agencies' would be wrong here, as its not referring to agencies which are the legal successors of the Agency which is party to the contract. Any other ideas?

subcontracting agencies


Explanation:
I had thought of successor agencies at first too. The context does put this somewhat into doubt. Try "subcontracting agencies", that is other agencies that take temporary employees on a contract from an interim agency.

successor agencies


Explanation:
Look at the following excerpts to see if they fit in with the context that you have:

The services are performed by an individual who is registered or licensed as a motor carrier of real or personal property by the Illinois Commerce Commission, the Interstate Commerce Commission, the United States Department of Transportation or any successor agencies;

disagree  Birgit Wahl-Peters: Don't think this fits. These are legal successors and that's not what the asker was searching for.
