Law firms ranked by client reviews
Maritime arbitration covers resolving disputes in shipping, cargo, shipbuilding and marine services outside court, using an arbitral panel rather than a judge. A solicitor in this area drafts and reviews arbitration agreements, arranges appointments of arbitrators, prepares statements of claim and defense, and coordinates documentary and witness evidence for hearings. They also assist with obtaining and enforcing arbitral awards, often under the Arbitration Act 1996 and using bodies such as the London Maritime Arbitration Association or other arbitration institutions. The process is shaped by contract terms, bills of lading, charterparties and liability regimes in ship and cargo contracts.
