Legal support across day-to-day operations
Lagarde Spedition spol. s r.o. is a Czech freight forwarder with ongoing operational activities in Germany. The company, based in the German-Czech border region, operates in the transport & logistics sector and works predominantly across borders. For its business activities in Germany, Lagarde Spedition is permanently confronted with a wide range of legal issues. These concern both ongoing day-to-day operations and structural matters, in particular the corporate law support of a German subsidiary.
In addition, there are regular transport law questions, representation before German authorities and courts, and recurring road traffic accidents in Germany. The company also needs to enforce outstanding claims against German customers. The challenge is to coordinate these different topics efficiently, with legal certainty and with due regard to the company's cross-border structure.
A central point of contact for all activities in Germany
Maxfeld acts as Lagarde Spedition's central legal contact point for all of its German activities. The advice is deliberately designed to span several areas of law and covers corporate, transport and litigation issues.
A key element of the approach is close cooperation with lawyers in the Czech Republic. This allows different legal frameworks to be taken into account at an early stage and consistent solutions to be developed. Bundling all topics through one central point enables efficient handling of both ongoing advisory requests and specific disputes with customers, accident parties and authorities.
Greater legal certainty in day-to-day operations
Lagarde Spedition has a single point of contact for all legal issues relating to its activities in Germany. The coordinated consideration of several legal systems creates a high degree of legal certainty in day-to-day operations.
Numerous individual matters, including disputes with customers, road traffic accidents and debt recovery, have been successfully concluded. In particular, the consistent recovery of outstanding claims helped to reduce commercial risks and enforce legitimate claims on a lasting basis.
