Shipping and Maritime Law
Crew, Employment and Personal Injury
We advise shipowners, operators, officers and crew on employment and personal injury matters arising in the maritime sector.
Maritime employment frequently involves contractual, regulatory and jurisdictional considerations which differ from ordinary shore-based employment relationships.
What we advise on
- Employment agreements for officers and crew
- Crew claims
- Wages and contractual entitlements
- Termination of maritime employment
- Employment-related disputes
- Vessel-related personal injury claims
- Accidents involving crew
- Claims involving shipowners and operators
- Insurance and P&I-related claims
- Settlement of crew and injury claims
- Court proceedings arising from maritime employment or injury
We advise both on the underlying employment relationship and on disputes or claims arising during the operation of the vessel.
