Collisions, salvage/assistance, general average, groundings and loss – at sea and on inland waterways – all form part of the work we do. This includes disputes under contracts of affreightment, cargo damage and personal injury, pilotage, maritime employment and public shipping law, port law, inland waterway law and criminal offenses in shipping and transport matters. We act for our clients not only in relation to court proceedings but also provide comprehensive advice on contracts in the maritime field (e.g. contracts of affreightment, crew employment and management contracts), including assistance in drawing up bill of lading terms and conditions.
