Legal Advice And Representation For Yacht Purchases And Other Maritime Issues
From maritime business decisions to resolving maritime disputes, we can serve as your comprehensive resource in this complex area of the law.
Helping Yacht & Cruise Ship Accident Victims Recover The Compensation They Deserve
Injuries suffered at sea are governed by a different code of law than injuries which occur on land. We help passengers, crew members and others who are injured on open water pursue the personal injury compensation to which they are entitled.
International Maritime / Yacht Services Law Firm
Although purchasing a new yacht may allow you to write off the interest payments on your “second home,” hiring a real estate attorney to conduct the transaction may not work out in your favor. The fact is, many attorneys are not familiar with maritime law. The unique challenges inherent in this field of law demand the skills of a lawyer who is as dedicated to maritime and aviation interests as you are.
