CUSTOMS AND INTERNATIONAL TRADE LAW FIRM
Although the global market has become increasingly open to trade, disparate local laws and varied business and cultural practices can mean major challenges in creating, distributing, and selling goods and services in certain markets. International trade sanctions limit how companies can do business, in addition to customs laws, exchange controls, and foreign investment requirements.
Our Customs and International Trade lawyers help clients overcome these challenges and successfully compete in the world’s developed and emerging markets. We help clients select, monitor, and manage their relationships with third-party suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, and sales agents in their supply chains.
