The logistics team can provide expert legal advice on all transport and insurance-related issues, offerering services to both the transport and insurance industries, both in the UK and internationally. 

We have substantial experience of dealing with cross-jurisdictional transport litigation, for insurers, cargo owners, hauliers and freight-forwarders. We also have a number of European qualified lawyers which enables us to assess cases strategically from an international perspective.

Furthermore, we understand the need to litigate in the most favourable forum for our client on the specific facts of the case. Our expertise reaches beyond the applicable transport legislation such as the CMR and we have excellent working knowledge of the relevant EU regulations as well as all applicable rules on the conflict of laws. We have substantial experience in negative declaratory proceedings and, as you will be aware, the jurisdiction of England and Wales is carrier-friendly in respect of the wilful misconduct issue.

Our lawyers regularly work on transport cases for international clients using the original files in German, French, Italian or Spanish.
