Halliwells Transport Lawyers deal with all aspects of the regulation of Goods vehicles. Drawing on their extensive experience of the industry, the team offer advice not only to those clients for whom their main business is logistics and haulage, but also those for whom running a fleet of vehicles is technically ancillary to their main business activity but which is still a key operational function.

Through our experience of the industry, connections with the Freight Transport and Road Haulage Associations and possession of the professional qualifications necessary to operate a haulage business i.e. Certificate of Professional Competency (CPC), we are confident in our ability to offer practical, focussed and commercial advice to the transport sector.
