BLACK SEA LAW COMPANY has successfully defended the interests of a foreign Shipowner and the P&I Club in a dispute with Ukrainian port authorities.
The case is related to the ship berthing incident, which caused legal consequences for all parties. Such incidents are common in the shipping industry, but it is important to always reduce the risk of any claims from both contractors and port authorities against Shipowner or vessel.
The causes of incidents in the port may be the negligence of any of the parties involved in cargo operations in the port, including towing and pilotage. In addition, incidents caused by the human factor are quite common, and therefore such cases require careful research and analysis.
Another successful case for the Shipping and Maritime Insurance Team, which was handled by Evgeniy Sukachev & Anastasiia Sukacheva.
