Maritime & Transport |
Logistics and transport are two issues critical to many companies. Considerable value is often at stake - both for owners and carriers - and, with a complex regulatory framework, it is crucial that no mistakes are made. Wistrand has long dealt with all manner of legal issues concerning transport. We represent shipping companies, shipyards, carriers, forwarding agents, airlines, P/I clubs and other insurers. We provide a range of advice on all issues of maritime, aviation and transport law. The firm is also able to advise on the financing of vessels including the drawing up and review of loan and security documentation. Competition law has also come to play a more prominent role for shipping companies and forwarding agents. In this respect the group works closely with the firm's competition law group. |
