Omar Omar, regional head of transport and insurance, regularly advises on cargo, container, marine agency, collisions, salvage and insurance claims. The team was significantly bolstered by the addition of ’outstanding shipping and trade lawyer’ Wesley Wood , former practice head at Hadef & Partners LLC, who is highly regarded for his expertise across both dry and wet shipping matters. Yazan Al Saoudi is considered a ‘go-to lawyer in the UAE’ for a wide range of P&I clubs, charterers and shipyards.
