International private law

Our clients rely on us not only to properly set international arbitration clauses in contracts and to incorporate clauses on governing law but also to stipulate the jurisdiction of the international courts to be used for the resolution of disputes. If  you need to resort to litigation to resolve an issue, as our client you will benefit from our unparalleled practical experience in resolving issues of international court jurisdiction and applicable law with regard to transportation contracts.  To protect our clients to the maximum possible extent, our services also include correctly setting up the legal standing of the parties with regard to potential future litigation as well as their standing to sue or be sued under the applicable law. Our profound understanding of such issues is a necessary prerequisite for helping our clients prevail in any future litigation initiated by them or against them by the other party. We are also very experienced in using procedural tactics effectively in disputes with an international element. If you are not using a law firm that has long-term practical experience in this area of law, such disputes could end up being very complicated and costly since a less experienced firm could make many mistakes in such proceedings. 

Naturally, we also offer our clients representation in proceedings on the seizure of assets by court bailiffs, proceedings on recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments and arbitral awards. 

In addition to having deep knowledge of international carriage contracts, we also have extensive experience with the Vienna Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) and contractual covenants such as INCOTERMS.

As a global firm having branches in many countries around the world, we are also able to provide our clients with legal advisory on complicated cases involving multiple jurisdictions and applicable national laws.
