Shipping & Maritime Law

Backed by deep sector expertise, our practice covers the full spectrum of admiralty matters, cargo claims, marine insurance, marine environmental law, carriage of goods by sea, international trade, ports, and terminals.

We provide specialized technical guidance for complex financing facility documentation and serve as trusted solicitors for ship sale and purchase transactions. Our in-depth knowledge of the Nigerian cabotage regime is frequently sought after, allowing us to advise on registration, waivers, licenses, restricted trades, and joint ventures.

Our team collaborates with a broad network of maritime professionals—including ship brokers, marine engineers, financial consultants, marine underwriters, and local shipping firms. We also offer consultation to both government and non-governmental entities across a diverse range of shipping and commercial concerns.

Our clients include cargo owners, shipowners, agents, brokers, port and terminal operators, P&I clubs, shipping companies, financial institutions, and both governmental and non-governmental organizations—all of whom trust us for insightful solutions and steadfast advocacy in the maritime domain.
