Mannheimer Swartling has a rich and long tradition of legal practice throughout the entire spectrum of shipping and transportation law. We act for Swedish and international shipping companies, financing institutions, insurance companies, as well as governmental and municipal authorities.

Many transactions in the field of maritime and transportation law involve other legal issues. We see our role as assisting our clients in reaching commercial decisions on a properly informed basis. Due to the size of the firm, we are able to put together a team of legal specialists and thus offer our clients advice in all fields of law potentially affecting the decisions to be taken by our clients - not only maritime and transportation law.

Thanks to our well-established practice in maritime law, we also have wide-ranging contacts internationally with major law firms active in this sector. At present, we have around ten lawyers specialising in this sector, most of whom are based at our Göteborg office, although the other offices also do work in this field.
