Marine & Transport

We understand the marine and transport business and this helps us develop close working relationships with our clients based on our knowledge of their problems. From our offices in Devon, we have good and quick access to the south coast of England and the Bristol Channel and provide expert advice combined with cost effective and practical solutions.

Our clients include insurers, owners, operators and private individuals and We are associate members of The British Ports Association and are used to working closely with harbours, ports and marinas on all aspects of port and harbour operations as well as advising on the regulatory framework and bye-laws. In dispute situations, we will try to avoid litigation. In circumstances where there is no alternative to litigation, our in-house advocacy service can offer a cost effective solution. From our long experience we know that problems can arise at any time of the day or night and immediate access to advice can significantly limit the damage.
