Lloyd & Johnson is a law firm and legal consultancy focused on maritime, shipping, logistics, international trade, customs, commercial law and indirect taxation. We advise local and international clients across the Indian subcontinent, the Middle East and South East Asia, with a working understanding of the multi-jurisdictional realities that generalist firms often miss.
Our partners and associates combine courtroom advocacy — including before the Supreme Court of India — with the day-to-day commercial judgment that shipping, customs and logistics businesses need.
About the Firm
In the 1950s, Malcolm McLean's standardised container cut the cost of loading a ton of cargo from $5.86 to 16 cents — and quietly rebuilt world trade around it. Roughly 90% of the world's goods now move by sea, some 23–38 million containers at a time. Every dispute we handle — a detention claim, a cargo loss, a sanctions question — sits downstream of that infrastructure. Understanding how it actually operates is what separates useful advice from generic advice.
Fourteen practice areas, one working focus: the legal problems that arise when goods, vessels and money cross borders.
We offer comprehensive legal services in shipping law, including contract negotiations, maritime disputes, cargo claims, and regulatory compliance.
