Practice

Maritime & Shipping

We navigate the high seas of Shipping, Maritime & International Trade law -resolving disputes, structuring deals, and guiding clients through the complex waters of global trade with precision and commercial acumen.

Supporting Clients Across Global Shipping Routes

Our team handles litigation involving vessel arrest and release, casualties, admiralty matters, constitution of limitation funds, carriage of goods, charterparties, and cargo claims.

On the non-contentious front, we advise clients on vessel sale and purchase transactions, financing, flag registration, and related contractual matters. Recognising the global nature of shipping, we collaborate closely with foreign law firms specialising in maritime law across major ports to support our clients’ operational and commercial needs seamlessly.

Our regional advantage

Leveraging PDLegal’s market-leading Shipping & Maritime practice, ranked and recognised by The Legal 500, Chambers, and other major legal directories, we bring our regional depth with on-the-ground capability. Our clients benefit from seamless cross-border coordination, deep industry expertise, and a proven track record in high-stakes matters across Southeast Asia and beyond.
