SHIPPING LITIGATION SOLICITOR, 2 PQE +
Dubai, UAE
From £70,000 to £80k+
* Shipping practice considered “second to none”
* Enviable client base and consistent flow of high quality work
* Great firm to work for
When participants in the shipping industry face a high stakes dispute, it is hard to look beyond this firm as the advisor of choice.
The practice has developed a formidable reputation over many years, and these days their impressive line-up includes a number of the senior practitioners considered to be the finest marine lawyers in the region, ably supported many up-and-coming, talented associates.
With acclaimed specialists on the ground in several key locations across the Middle East (as well as market leading teams elsewhere around the globe), the quality and reach of the firm’s trade and shipping practice is difficult to match.
Associates joining this team will find that the quality and scope of the wet and dry shipping work here is as good as you will find anywhere. Day to day, your work load could involve litigation, arbitration, and insurance policy coverage advice relating to collisions, cargo loss/damage, charterparty agreements, freight, demurrage, fraud, ship purchases, building, conversions and maintenance. These claims can regularly be worth several millions of pounds.
As an integral member of an ever-growing team, you will benefit from excellent career prospects, aided by the practice’s pro-active willingness for you to be involved in client facing activities. The team’s active clients range from prominent insurance companies and P&I clubs, to state owned charterers and major commodities traders.
Given the strong flow of work in this area, the team is keen to add at least one further shipping specialist with solid experience as a junior or mid-level lawyer in a highly regarded, dedicated practice in the region (or with very good experience in the UK with a rated shipping department).
