Transport

Udfordringer og behov
Transport af gods er en kompliceret og ofte sammensat proces, der involverer mange aktører. Dette gælder, uanset om transporten udføres ad landevejen, luftvejen eller til søs. Transportopgaverne foregår ofte mellem flere lande, og de regler, der regulerer dem, er derfor baseret på internationale konventioner. Det er vigtigt for både ladningsejere og transportører, at leverancer fremkommer rettidigt og ubeskadigede, og risikoen for en konflikt er derfor til stede ved enhver transportopgave. Dette understreger behovet for en klar afgrænsning af den enkelte aktørs opgaver og dermed af hans mulige ansvar.

Gennem vores netværk samarbejder vi med førende internationale transportadvokater, og vi kan derfor give vores klienter den bedst mulige bistand, uanset hvor i verden de bliver involveret i en konflikt.

Bech-Bruun is traditionally strong in shipping and maintains its wide-ranging practice. Its clients include cargo owners, insurers, shipowners, operators, managers and offshore energy companies. A recent highlight demonstrating the group's cross-border capacity was its involvement in the reconstruction of the Containership Company, a mandate which included the filing of 75 shipping-related lawsuits in New York. Sources say: "All the team members are excellent communicators and keep us well advised." 

Peers hail department head Jes Anker Mikkelsen as "outstanding," whilst clients observe that "he is highly respected, which is always an advantage when he is on your side in court." Well-known litigator Henrik Valdorf-Hansen represents clients in both the Danish Supreme Court and arbitration proceedings. Commentators pinpoint Johannes Grove Nielsen as an up-and-coming name with growing market visibility.

This well-regarded practice focuses on advising P&I clubs, liability underwriters, shipowners, operators, managers and cargo owners. The group has much experience of handling litigation, insurance, sale and purchase transactions, and restructuring mandates. In restructuring it acts as trustee to The Containership Company on its USD50 million restructuring proceedings, a matter involving US law due to the location of the company's assets. In the insurance area the group notably represented If Insurance in a dispute against DHL Global Forwarding regarding the loss of a container in transit.

Sources say: "This is an efficient, sophisticated, businesslike and extremely hard-working team, with which it is very easy to communicate." 

"First-class lawyer" Jes Anker Mikkelsen heads the department and is lauded as "proactive, insightful and authoritative" by interviewees. Clients value his "excellent legal and client skills, and sophisticated understanding of business." Johannes Grove Nielsen continues to receive praise as one of the market's rising stars, and was recently involved in the restructuring of The Containership Company.
