Transport & Shipping

Practical advice in transport & shipping

We advise carriers, logistics providers, freight forwarders, cargo owners and other businesses on the carriage of goods by road, rail, sea and air. Our work covers both national and international transport arrangements. We assist with contracts, regulatory requirements and disputes arising from transport and logistics operations.

Contracts, liability and cross-border requirements

Transport and shipping operations require clear contractual terms, reliable documentation and a well-defined allocation of liability. Delays, cargo damage or loss, payment disputes and differing national requirements may give rise to significant commercial and legal risks.

We advise clients on the legal framework governing transport and shipping, contractual arrangements and liability issues, including cross-border matters. Where claims arise, we assist in negotiations and represent clients in litigation and arbitration.

  • Carriage and logistics agreements
  • Cross-border and multimodal transport

  • Cargo delay, damage and loss
  • Payment and liability issues
  • Transport-related insurance matters
