PRACTICE AREA
Legal support that understands maritime trade and operations.
We advise and represent shipowners, charterers, cargo interests, agents, insurers and other maritime participants on charterparties, bills of lading, cargo claims, freight, demurrage and contracts of carriage.
We develop rapid protective measures and dispute strategies in ship arrest and attachment, maritime claims, collision, salvage, general average, port and agency disputes, vessel sales and operational conflicts.
In cross-border maritime matters, we consider different legal systems, jurisdiction and arbitration clauses, and the practical realities of ports and vessel operations together to deliver commercially workable solutions.
