Cargo theft in Mexico: carriers’ legal liability and duty of care
Recent judicial criteria are raising prevention, security and due diligence standards for carriers in Mexico.
Our counsel Enrique Riquelme authored the Grupo T21 article “La responsabilidad legal del transportista ante el aumento del robo de carga en México,” in which he examines the legal implications facing the logistics sector amid the rise in cargo theft in transit.
Enrique discusses recent federal court criteria that redefine the standard of care expected from carriers and highlights the importance of strengthening preventive measures, security protocols and due diligence documentation.
The article explores how a more robust preventive approach can help mitigate legal and operational risks in an environment of increasing exposure for supply chains.
