Commission in a nutshell
Imagine you want to go shopping but no goods are in the store or you
would like to go on vacation but no planes are available. It could became even
worse if you cannot watch your favourite show on TV because your new flat
screen has not arrived from the production plant in Asia yet. A world without transport is simply unimaginable. Day after day, parcels
are forwarded, people board aircrafts, goods are transported by vessels, trucks
and aircrafts and warehousing is needed. All these (logistic) actions are
essential to trade – regardless of the nature of the goods in question. That is why we are dealing with all legal aspects of the transport of
persons and goods, including the operational needs of the transport industry.
This very wide and truly international scope of interests includes transport
related incidents and accidents, warehousing and logistic chains, pollution at
sea, the insurance of the inherent risks as well as financing the various
transport vehicles next to setting up the necessary company owing them and even
labour related matters. The Transport Law Commission also discusses the
transactions and contracts behind the respective transport and problems related
to recovery and securing claims of various nature. One can truly say that the Transport Law Commission is a boutique
combining international litigation and arbitration with distribution and
banking and finance issues. We address the problems of the industry during our 3
commission meetings per year held at the May and November conferences and the
annual congress in August and organize a two day seminar annually. As the issue
of “forum shopping” or interpretation of international conventions in different
jurisdictions is of great interest in these multinational matters, contacts to
all corners of the world obtained via the Transport Law Commission are
significant. We welcome new members interested in the different aspects of trade and
transport law as well as having fun with colleagues sharing our area of law.
Feel free to contact us at any time. We look forward to seeing you at one of
our future events soon. |
