Maritime & Shipping
Counsel on shipping contracts, charter parties, port operations, insurance and maritime disputes.
Maritime law in Türkiye sits at the crossing of the Turkish Commercial Code's maritime chapter, the international conventions Türkiye has acceded to, and the operational rules of the country's ports. Disputes are usually multi-party — owner, charterer, cargo interest, freight forwarder, insurer — and they move quickly because the asset (the vessel, the cargo) is often physically present and disputed.
We advise shipping companies, freight forwarders, cargo interests and marine insurers — on charter parties and bills of lading, on port and terminal disputes, on cargo claims and general average, and on the regulatory matters that govern flag, registration and crew.
