This area covers the international movement of goods by sea and all the contracts and liabilities that flow from it. A solicitor in this field handles charters and bills of lading, marine insurance, shipowner and carrier liability, and disputes about cargo, freight, or demurrage. They draft and negotiate voyage and time charters, assist with arrest or release of ships, and navigate claims in commercial courts, arbitration, and mediation to protect a client’s maritime interests.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The work involves the specific provisions that govern shipping contracts, such as bills of lading, charterparties, and marine insurance, and the interaction with UK and international regimes. It also addresses cargo claims, freight disputes, and liability limits, requiring precise drafting and knowledge of maritime procedure and enforcement options.

I had the pleasure of being represented by Georgina Power, her professionalism and extensive knowledge in road transport matters helped me prepare for and feel confident during my case. With Georgina's help I came away with a very positive result, I cant recommend Georgina and Rothera Bray solicitors highly enough. Very pleased.

Tagged solicitor Farrah Ali

As first time sellers we were unsure of how things would go but Farrah kept us informed and upto date every step of the way. She always responded really quickly to our emails and gave us comfort that there were no silly questions. Farrah was excellent throughout and I would fully recommend her and the Scullion team. We first dealt with Stuart in the new business team and he was first-class in those opening few weeks when we were really unsure about things. He explained what will and what might happen and I was reassured by everything he said.

Tagged solicitor Timothy Knight

Tim assisted with case brought by Shoreside Law against the insured. Advised to use limitation under RHA terms in order to limit claim to weight limitation which was successful. Great service and advise throughout as normal.
