Client Representation in Washington 

CS shapes trade policy initiatives on behalf of its business clients and helps them solve large or small trade problems as they arise. For example, ECS won important concessions in the NAFTA negotiations for its U.S. clients on the timing of tariff elimination and rules of origin. In the Uruguay Trade Round, ECS secured better market access abroad for a number of the firm’s exporting clients while holding the line on U.S. tariffs for the firm’s domestically based clients. ECS also has helped bring about numerous legislative victories for industries before Congress.
