Transport documents that must be right before loading
A bill of lading, air waybill and CMR each carry a different liability regime. A wrong Incoterm, discharge port or appearance clause later moves the entire claim.
- Bill of lading review against the letter of credit
- Freight-forwarder contracts and subcontractor liability
- Cargo insurance and coverage exclusions
- Protective arrest of ship or cargo where needed
Damage, delay and shortage
Notice periods in sea and air carriage are short. Delay in a survey report and in preserving evidence hollows out the file. We design the claim against the carrier, the forwarder and the insurer at the same time.
Frequently asked questions
Cargo arrived damaged in Dubai — what now?
Give written notice immediately, commission an independent survey and send us the bill of lading and policy. Time-bars are short.
Is the forwarder or the line liable?
It depends on the contractual role and the transport document. We run both paths in parallel.
