Strategic Partners - Humphrey Legal Services is a private export management company.  We provide a package of export-related services to small to medium size businesses in the Midwest.  We focus primarily on companies in Missouri and Illinois because of their physical proximity to our offices. 

We will professionally provide services to any small to medium sized manufacturer that can benefit from our international knowledge and essential contacts; wherever the company is located.

Humphrey Legal Services concentrates its efforts in manufactured goods, industrial equipment and supplies. The scope of our international access includes; but is not limited to: 

(1) Brussels, Belgium,
(2) Toronto, Canada,                                                                                                        
(3) Hong Kong, China,
(4) Shanghai, China,
(5) Jerusalem, Israel,
(6) Tokyo, Japan,
(7) Mexico City,  Mexico,
(8) Warsaw,  Poland,

Humphrey Legal Services uses established contacts in these countries.  Their knowledge of the potential for your product is a direct advantage over any competitors.

Your company will benefit from our proven approach even if you do not possess the managerial knowledge, manpower, or financial resources to get involved in direct exporting. Cur­rently, exporting is more important than ever in light of fierce import competition for do­mestic market share.

Humphrey Legal Services will serve as the export department for your company.

If your product or service is not suitable for any of these markets, we will redirect our resources to identification and entry of an appropriate region for your success.

The United States trade deficit highlights the imbalance in the domestic market. Im­ports are rising faster than exports and competition for U.S. market share is more fierce than ever. Domestic market growth opportunities are declining for U.S. manufacturers. However, virtually untapped new markets have emerged in Eastern and Central Europe and throughout the "emerging markets".  Many markets, previously closed to Western goods, present a variety of export opportunities for U.S. manufacturers.

Small firms, classified as those with fewer than 100 employees, account for more than one fourth of all exporting firms in the United States. However, smaller firms are less likely to engage in international business, considering that less than 10% of all firms classified as small are engaged in exporting.

Most small firms lack the management knowledge, financial resources, and manpower to organize direct in-house exporting de­partments.

This is where the export intermediary steps in.

Humphrey Legal Services will func­tion as the export department for your firm. 
We provide the necessary knowledge and manpower, without requiring the large financial outlay needed to start an in-house ex­port department.
