Defence and export controls
A long history of success in defence and export controls.
Clients come to us for advice on a wide range of areas of export control law. Our experience includes audits and internal structural issues, as well as advising on trading relations and transactions in Europe and the US.
Our lawyers represent governments, multinational companies and trade associations in their dealings with EU member states and US institutions, as well as with third country governments.
We maintain close contact with all institutions responsible for trade controls in the EU, the US and beyond, and have built up an instinctive awareness of how they will apply the rules.
Thanks to these contacts and regularly representing clients, we have a rare appreciation of how export control law is interpreted, applied and enforced. We’re able to advise both on the application of the long-standing elements of trade controls and the recently changed rules such as, for instance, the economic sanctions that many countries impose on Iran.
We have a long history of successful delivery in this field. This makes us an ideal partner for you.
