Maritime, Aviation, Transport & Logistics

The activities of enterprises greatly rely on shipping, aviation, and transport and logistics businesses that connect global points. These industries are indispensable for the growth of companies. They also have international elements requiring an analysis of foreign legal systems (including industry standards and practices), responsiveness to regulatory demands, and close cooperation with maritime and other experts.
