Over the past year, we’ve helped clients navigate evolving EU and US sanctions, implement internal compliance programmes, conduct due diligence, and align with regulatory frameworks, mitigating legal and reputational risks while ensuring business continuity. We’ve also guided companies through the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), offering end-to-end support from supply chain mapping to staff training. In customs law, we’ve strengthened our role by assisting EU exporters in responding to U.S. tariffs, assessing impacts, identifying mitigation strategies, and reviewing classifications and rules of origin.
