Often involving dealings in multiple jurisdictions, our dispute resolution knowledge puts you ahead in terms of preparation and procedures.
We appraise your claim, negotiate terms, instruct local lawyers and represent you in international arbitration and before national courts.
We are admitted to practise before Australian, English and Welsh courts.
Aided by our paralegal, Andrea Tabet, we remain operational and direct about issues and your options, including the potential risks and rewards of each.
Demurrage
Arturs Evele forms our dedicated and experienced demurrage claim processing department.
Tailoring our services to your needs, we collect and verify key data, calculate laytime, provide consultancy on contract review in our core sectors of demurrage and charter party claims, prepare and review claims, negotiate with counterparties and report back.
Customised training on laytime and demurrage is also possible, either in our offices or at your premises.
By outsourcing your demurrage claims management to us, not only do you have access to our skilled expertise, making it possible to recover your demurrage sooner, but your staff can also stay focused on your core business, improving your overall efficiency.
