Legal Procedures

Arrest, liens and ordinary claims follow the procedure of the port where the vessel can be reached.

How We Work

The file is reviewed, the ship is identified, and local counsel is instructed against a real sailing window.

Case Studies

See how an unpaid supply file was prepared before a local recovery step was recommended.

About

South America Maritime Claims & Dispute Resolution
Unpaid maritime debts, commercial disputes and shipping-related claims can become increasingly difficult to resolve when a vessel, shipowner, operator, charterer or debtor is located in another jurisdiction. Different legal systems, local procedural requirements, language barriers and time-sensitive vessel movements can make effective recovery particularly challenging.
