Experts in transport infrastructure

Anything that there is to know from the legal perspective about any transport infrastructure in the region, we know it inside out. We can easily deal with complex railway arrangements, we know port operations, and have advised the region’s largest airports, including air traffic management on a regional level. We also assist clients in ship arrests and aircraft detentions.

Arrangements and assets – covered

You can also rely on our experience in sales, leasing, and production of transportation assets. We have had a hand in all the big deals our region has been involved in this field, such as aircraft sales and leases, and large ship sales.

Friends with future transportation

Navigating the exciting and rapidly changing legal landscape for modern means of transportation is also something we do everyday. Smart and connected cars, ride sharing solutions, autonomous vehicles – we have experience with them all.

Helping your online orders reach you

We have worked with traditional nationally owned postal operators, private couriers, and by helping disruptors like parcel machine operators to enter the fray, we have contributed to opening up this market.
