Shipping/ Maritime

Shipping is one of the most specialised areas of law and requires extensive training due to the unique requirements associated with Shipping Law. The shipping sector operates against a backdrop of soaring fuel prices and the threat of piracy which has led to an increasing level of litigation covering areas such as claims arising out of breaches of construction contracts, contracts of carriage, pollution regulations, ship casualties and collisions and personal Injuries.

The non-contentious side of Shipping law revolves around the construction and sale & purchase of vessels. The financing behind these transactions is renowned for being particularly complex and as such many non-contentious Shipping Solicitors come from an asset finance background, having dealt with the purchase of other high value assets for the aviation and rail industries.
