Transportation
Shipping and transport are significant industries in Sweden. The transport sector includes various modes of transportation, each regulated by different laws, conventions, and practices. A common theme in the industry is that logistics issues are becoming increasingly important. Warehousing is becoming more expensive, and "just-in-time" transport is dominating. For the entire flow to function smoothly from the factory to the end customer, logistics must run seamlessly.
Lindahl has a strong offering in the transport sector. The firm has some of Sweden's leading experts in the field, with extensive knowledge of the industry and transport law. We are frequently engaged by shipping companies, charterers, cargo owners, and insurance companies. Examples of assignments include corporate acquisitions and other changes in ownership structures, the purchase and sale of ships, newbuild and conversion contracts, ship financing, marine and transport insurance issues, interpretation and application of charter agreements, cargo and personal injury cases, oil damage cases, and damage claims related to land transport.
"The firm has some of Sweden's leading experts in the field, with extensive knowledge of the industry and transport law"
