International Trade & Policy
Today’s global economy continues to expand the scope and volume of goods and services that move across international borders. It multiplies the number and complexity of rules and regulations. The professionals in Manatt’s International Trade & Policy group understand these transactions and the international agreements, laws and regulations that define them.
Manatt professionals help clients structure their international business and commerce to effectively utilize these agreements, and laws and regulations, as well as to comply with U.S. import and export requirements, minimize import duties and other expenses, and expedite the movement of goods and services. They also work to create and to ensure competitive market access for clients and their products. Manatt’s professionals also counsel their clients on immigration issues to help them to locate their employees where they need them to be. Clients also benefit from the expertise provided by Manatt’s Government Advocacy and Policy Division, a multi-office team of Manatt professionals with experience defining trade and regulatory policy at the federal, state, county and local government levels.
