Logistics and dispatch

The products sought after and offered by forwarding agents and other logistics operators are increasingly complex. The traditional intermediary services provided by freight forwarders have been replaced by sophisticated transport and logistics solutions. The complexity of the service and the contractual framework has resulted in a number of new and similarly complex legal challenges requiring expert assistance.

Our specialists have in-depth knowledge of the sector and draw on many years of experience to provide highly specialised legal advice.

We also have thorough knowledge of the industry-specific general terms and conditions such as NSAB 2000, including by virtue of having assisted the transport purchasing side with the two latest revisions to those general conditions.

Our assistance includes:

Advice on liability issues, typically in connection with damage, injury, miscarriage and delays
Drafting of logistics and framework agreements
Drafting of business and standard terms and conditions
Advice on insurance issues
Advice on customs, VAT, duties and refunds
Litigation and arbitration
