Automotive

It is nearly impossible to imagine modern lifestyle without various options for (mass) transportation of passengers or goods – mobility of goods and people is the physical bridge to globalisation.

Are you still in the driver’s seat? We anticipate trends and steer the industry towards further innovative milestones while understanding the legal implications and minimizing risks.

We combine thought leaders from all practice groups and draw from their vast experience to provide one holistic approach to the following areas and beyond:

  • Adapted supply chain struggles

  • Converging modalities and compliance with complex safety regulations

  • Dealer disputes

  • Concerns over environmental impact

  • Class action litigation

  • Optimizing interconnected and autonomous deployment

  • Alternative energy vehicles

  • Shifting subscription models: more vehicle sharing, less ridesharing

  • Intellectual property disputes and licensing arrangements

  • Consumer customization balanced with consumer privacy

  • Growing consumer awareness of data commoditization

  • Cybersecurity and privacy regulation

  • Transparent payment platforms

  • Force Majeure (e.g. COVID)

Our team provides a unique perspective on these and other emerging issues of concern to the automotive industry. In an increasingly complex global market, we understand how vital it is for clients to anticipate, understand, and respond quickly to all challenges. Being at the forefront of this continuous change drives our team to identify opportunities arising from disruptions in the industry.
