Transport & Logistics

In our area of practice, which is extremely difficult to generalise about, we like to say “the only thing we haven’t worked on yet is space travel”. Otherwise our reach in our admittedly small markets has been massive in all fields of transport. Transport is inseparable from manufacturing, from trade and from travel. For this reason our clients appreciate our ability to connect diverse sets of expertise in solving any of their strategic or emergency needs.

Transport infrastructure specialists

Anything that there is to know from the legal perspective about any transport infrastructure in the region, we know it inside out. We can easily deal with complicated railway arrangements, we know port operations, and have advised the region’s largest airports as well, even dealing with air traffic management on a regional level. We also assist clients in ship arrests and aircraft detentions.

Arrangements and assets – covered

Whether it’s advice on logistics, carriage of passengers and freight, public transportation (whether publicly procured or private), maritime shipping, aviation or road carriage that you need, we can connect the region’s experts to tailor the perfect solution for your needs. You can also rely on our experience in sales, and in the lease and production of transportation assets. We have had a hand in all the big deals our region has been involved in this field, such as aircraft sales and leases, and large ship sales.

Friends with the future

Navigating the exciting and rapidly changing legal landscape for modern means of transportation is already something we do everyday. Smart and connected cars, ride sharing solutions, autonomous vehicles – we have experience with them all.
