Global Trade & Policy

The Global Trade & Policy Practice Group focuses on issues arising from international trade. The Practice Group’s areas of expertise include the following: drafting international trade and sales contracts, import/export regulations, customs and trade agreements, shipping and logistics and trade remedies. In a globalized business world clients require their lawyers to have the ability to respond quickly to legal and commercial issues governed by many different legal systems. Members of the group can do this because they can call upon the assistance of their colleagues. The collaboration between Member Firms at meetings and through business development initiatives allows the members to react quickly and to service client's needs with the minimum of delay and cost. Practice Group members meet regularly to exchange information and to develop ways of helping their clients steer their way through the international legal framework.
