Our strength is in establishing and maintaining close working relationships with our clients to understand their particular businesses and provide practical solutions which bring our client’s objectives within their reach. Our reputation for getting results is based on a combination of legal excellence and a thorough knowledge of the industry.

Next to that we actively maintain a network of foreign and domestic lawyers and law firms for dealing with those issues falling outside the scope of our industry-specific issues, since it is our aim to be a clients’ primary contact for all legal support. The leading ranking book Chambers Europe puts it this way:

"Based in Rotterdam, this innovative maritime boutique acts on a wide range of wet and dry shipping matters. The focus here is on contentious work such as ship arrests, collisions, salvage cases and charter party disputes. It maintains strong relations with shipyards and owners, negotiating shipbuilding contracts and offering support with ship finance and registration. It also lends its know-how to arbitration, offshore and energy matters."
