Most logistics professionals operate under contracts they've never fully read — and handle claims without a systematic process. This course gives you the legal and operational knowledge to protect your business, manage risk, and recover losses effectively.

What you'll learn: • Contract fundamentals for logistics: key clauses, liability caps, and indemnification language • Carrier agreements: what to negotiate, what to avoid, and standard industry terms • Freight broker agreements: shipper-broker and broker-carrier contract structures • Cargo insurance: types of coverage, policy language, and how to file claims correctly • Freight claims process: Carmack Amendment, filing deadlines, documentation, and negotiation • Force majeure, acts of God, and contractual protections during disruptions • Liability management: when you're responsible and when you're not • Risk assessment frameworks for logistics operations • Working with legal counsel: when to escalate and how to brief attorneys on logistics issues

Built for logistics managers, freight brokers, freight forwarders, and operations leaders who want to protect their business and handle disputes professionally.
