Transport disputes require the contract, transport document, route, handover records, reservations, nature of the goods and applicable domestic or international regime to be identified.
Contract of carriage
The parties, mode of transport, route and allocation of loading, delivery and customs obligations should be established.
Loss, damage and delay
Condition at handover and delivery, reservations, surveys and timing records are central to the factual analysis.
Carrier liability
Liability, exemptions and monetary limits depend on the applicable statutory or treaty regime and the parties’ roles.
Time and jurisdiction
Notice, limitation, arbitration and jurisdiction clauses should be checked before steps are taken.
These explanations are general information. Durations and rules to be applied may vary depending on the concrete case.
