LCH Claims Services is a specialist in Transit Claims, Cargo Claims, Recoveries & Subrogation, Product Liability Claims and Aviation Claims with offices in Europe and the United States.
We have many years of experience in representing claims throughout Europe, from the filing of claims to out-of-court negotiations, litigation, and enforcement. Claims against European ocean carriers, freight forwarders, air carriers and airlines, against manufacturers and producers of goods occur daily and it’s our daily business.
We are experts in the different jurisdictions in Europe, know their particularities and the chances and risks of pursuing your claims. We have a close network of specialized, competent, and experienced attorneys who will reliably pursue your claim if we cannot enforce your claim out of court.
Asserting claims abroad is for many associated with a lot of uncertainty and many questions. Above all, incalculable costs and unknown procedures are often obstacles. Because we operate on a contingent fee basis, including attorneys’ fees from the first filing of a claim to its conclusion or to finding a settlement, LCH stands for transparent and calculated costs.
Our team consists of experienced claims managers, translators, and specialized lawyers who have a long track record in pursuing claims from the relevant practice areas and are litigation and arbitration specialists.
Our staff are experts in international trade and transportation and have the expertise to enforce complex cross-border claims routinely and effectively.
The assertion of claims in Europe is a complex process that is subject to its own rules. The common law and the civil law applicable in Europe are fundamentally different. This applies above all to procedural law and arbitration law. In addition, although the legal systems of the European countries are in part closely related, they exhibit such distinct differences that they must be considered in detail. Claims arising from the transportation of goods, the aviation sector, and the product liability sector, as well as most other commercial law claims with points of contact to Europe, are characterized by the fact that they very often touch upon several jurisdictions. It is commonplace in the transportation sector that contracts are governed by the law of one state, but jurisdictions in two states are available. Without knowledge of international private and procedural law, the civil law system and at least the fundamental peculiarities of the country concerned, the enforcement of claims is not promising. Last but not least, there are considerable cultural differences between the various countries and different languages are spoken.
