Provided by GrayRobinson, PA

The GrayRobinson Maritime Litigation Team provides comprehensive legal services across the full spectrum of issues faced by the maritime industry – from high-stakes litigation and casualty response to complex regulatory, transactional, and risk management matters. We represent shipowners and operators, shipyards, marine insurers (including London market and P&I Clubs), cruise lines, charterers, and maritime service providers throughout the United States and internationally.

Our team includes nationally recognized maritime litigators with decades of courtroom and industry experience. In addition to a deep background in maritime collision, cargo, insurance, and personal injury litigation, we provide business counsel on shipyard contracts, charter negotiations, maritime finance, and regulatory compliance, further strengthening GrayRobinson’s global maritime capabilities.

Known for our responsiveness, technical knowledge, and business-focused approach, we represent clients in some of the nation’s most significant vessel collisions, cargo damage claims, marine casualties, limitation of liability actions, maritime liens, salvage disputes, and environmental incidents. Our work also encompasses ship repair and construction contracts, marine insurance coverage, and regulatory compliance matters involving the U.S. Coast Guard, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and international maritime conventions.
