Dispute Resolution & Claims

Disputes sometimes arise despite everyone’s best intentions. At Pacific Maritime, we are very experienced litigators with a strong track record in protecting our client’s interests. But we also keep a close eye on resolving disputes at the earliest opportunity to keep costs and stress to a minimum. A commercial or negotiated resolution is nearly always preferable to long, drawn out and expensive litigation.

Whether your dispute or claim involves:

repairs to vessels
losses arising out of marine incidents
misrepresentations associated with marine contracts
breaches of marine contracts, whether sale or charter or otherwise
marine-based negligence

we have the maritime and legal skills to advance your interests.

We are active in Admiralty claims, and have successfully arrested a number of vessels in recent times. This is a unique process available to maritime lawyers, and can lead to speedy and cost-effective resolution of disputes.
