Cerny Associates

A Customs, Export & International Trade Law Firm

Cerny Associates is a law firm dedicated exclusively to international trade law.  Our practice areas include all aspects of customs law, export control laws and regulations, free trade agreements, duty drawback, and international trade matters.    

All companies -- from small, specialty importers to multinationals -- must comply with an increasingly complex, and sometimes contradictory, web of international and local import and export requirements.  Almost every aspect of a company's operations is affected by the need to comply with these regulations, including but not limited to, purchasing, sales, engineering, product development, accounting and inventory control.  

Failure to comply with import and export regulations can erode a company’s profits, impede its ability to meet its customers’ needs and even lead to penalties.  However, intelligently managed customs and trade compliance can become a business tool that companies can use to add value for their customers and drive new revenue and growth.  We pride ourselves in working within our clients' budgetary constraints.
