We advise as part of our daily practice on ship arrests, salvage, loss or damage, towage, collision, pollution, enforcement of mortgages, cargo claims, bills of lading and contracts of affreightment, judicial and court-approved sales and have also extensive experience in dealing with MLC claims and abandonment of seafarers.

The firm acts regularly for P&I Clubs and marine insurers, international law firms as well as shipowners and operators. We advise on both contentious and non-contentious matters and provide solutions that are clear, concise, effective and commercial.

Our approach is to build long-term partnerships with our clients and to add value by delivering individually tailored, practical and creative solutions to commercial and legal issues. We combine high-calibre lawyers, innovation and market knowledge with client-focused flexibility and a philosophy which delivers a personal approach with the highest professional standards.

We are naturally pro-active and our business is managed to specifically promote the highest quality of service.
