Transportation & Cargo Settlement / Litigation

The movement of cargo into, within, and from the U.S. involves a wide range of entities, including shippers, carriers, customs brokers, warehousemen, freight forwarders, NVOCCs, and third-party logistics providers. Disputes among these parties are not uncommon and may involve cargo loss and damage, security breaches, safety issues, and load regulations. Delays in resolving these disputes can delay valuable shipments and harm revenue and reputation.

Experience: STR attorneys have successfully litigated cases brought under the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act, the Warsaw Convention, the Carmack Amendment, and related regulatory regimes.
