Transportation and Logistics

As one of Norway’s premier transport and logistics law firms, we have developed substantial legal expertise and a deep understanding of the industry over many years. Our lawyers are consistently ranked among Norway’s best in international rankings, with significant experience in managing complex and high-stakes cases for both Norwegian and international clients.

The transportation and logistics sector has experienced significant transformations due to the growth in international trade, technological advancements, and regulatory changes. The demand for efficient, flexible, and integrated transport services has blurred traditional industry boundaries, leading to a restructuring of organisational and contractual practices. Recent challenges, such as pandemic outbreaks, war, and trade restrictions, have further strained the transportation system.

Our work is grounded in solid legal expertise. To assist clients in navigating this complex and evolving industry, we combine our legal proficiency and experience with up-to-date industry knowledge and a robust international network.

We provide specialised advice to Norwegian and international industry players, including transactions and contract negotiations. Our team handles numerous disputes and has notably represented carriers in significant cases, such as one of the largest cargo damage cases in Norwegian history (Lauritzen Singapore et.al. vs. Yara).

Our consistent delivery of high-quality services has earned our lawyers top rankings in international directories like Chambers and Legal 500 for many years.
