I will draft comprehensive ship management and maritime service agreements
Licensed US Attorney : Elite Maritime and Shipping Law Counsel
About this Gig
Delegating the operational, technical, or commercial management of a vessel involves significant legal risk. If management responsibilities, budgets, and liabilities are not clearly defined, vessel owners can find themselves liable for crew negligence, ISM Code violations, or environmental disasters.
As a licensed U.S. Attorney (#78368), I draft sophisticated Ship Management and Maritime Service Agreements that clearly delineate the responsibilities between shipowners and ship managers.
I specialize in drafting:
- Technical Management Agreements (Maintenance, dry-docking, ISM/ISPS compliance)
- Crew Management Agreements (Hiring, payroll, insurance, and MLC 2006 compliance)
- Commercial Management Agreements (Chartering, voyage operations, and freight collection)
- Maritime Agency & Port Service Agreements
I ensure your agreements properly allocate liability, establish strict budgetary approvals, and include robust indemnity clauses. Protect your fleet and operational integrity by securing an attorney-drafted agreement today.
