Successfully navigating the legal hurdles of the transport industry.

A GROWING MARKET WITH INCREASING REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS.

The transport of goods is an essential basis for global business transactions. Logistics companies often have to cross geographical borders - and at the same time ensure compliance with the legal boundaries of an increasingly complex set of regulations in a national and international context.

The number of regulations is reflected in the variety of transport routes and means. Whether by land, sea, rail or air, the challenges are as numerous as they are varied. For example, who is liable to the client if the sub-carrier has lost the load? Or a delivery from abroad arrives damaged. Under which law is the carrier liable?

Proper administration and reliable collection of your receivables are essential. At the same time, the carrier's liability must be kept as low as possible.

We have often been able to help our clients achieve success in these and all other matters of transport and shipping law and would do the same for you in the future.

Freight forwarders, carriers and logistics companies as well as trading companies rely on our services.
