Transport and Logistics

During carriage by road, rail, sea, inland waterways, or air, damage can occur in many different ways. Each transport modality has its own liability regime for such situations. We have an understanding of the rules - often based upon international treaties - that govern these situations and how to apply them. Situations and areas in connection with which we protect our clients' interests include the following:

  • collisions
  • general average
  • attachment of sea-going vessels
  • charter parties
  • carriage over inland waterways
  • combined transport
  • salvage
  • cargo damage during carriage by air, sea, road or rail
  • maritime accidents
  • warehousing and transhipment
  • physical distribution
  • ship auctions
  • ship financing
  • ship building and repairs
  • wreck removal
