Navigating Global Trade Complexity
Leveraging proactive mitigation strategies and aggressive litigation to recover duty overpayments and protect your bottom line.
What is a Tariff Task Force?
A Tariff Task Force is a multidisciplinary team of legal, tax, and supply chain experts dedicated to auditing import data, identifying duty recovery opportunities, and mitigating the impact of trade disputes, and price volatility due to tariffs. At Hahn Loeser, our task force combines litigation muscle with deep regulatory expertise to handle everything from tariff refund claims to complex tariff dispute resolution.
Industry Impact: Why Now?
The global trade landscape is shifting rapidly. With questions rising about when certain tariffs may lapse (or be invalidated) or how tariffs affect business, organizations need stable, predictable legal counsel. Whether you are dealing with tariffs on imports, navigating the US tariff schedule, or dealing with price volatility due to tariffs, our team provides the clarity needed to operate in a high-duty environment.
Areas of Focus:
- Construction
- M&A
- Manufacturing
Our Approach:
We don’t just identify problems; we execute recovery. By integrating our International Business and Commercial Litigation teams, we provide a 360-degree defense against trade volatility.
Can I Get a Refund on Paid Tariffs?
Businesses may be eligible for tariff refund claims or tariff reimbursement if duties were paid under executive orders that have been invalidated, or if specific product exclusions apply. Following the landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling on emergency (IEEPA) tariffs, the tariff refund process has become a critical priority for U.S. importers.
Our team helps clients navigate the procedural hurdles for filing formal protests to secure duty recovery or pursue legal action in the Court of International Trade. The window for certain tariff refund claims may be limited.
To evaluate your eligibility for duty recovery and to implement a robust tariff mitigation strategy, contact a member of the Hahn Loeser Tariff Task Force today.
