Ship arrest is one of the most effective measures for securing maritime claims. It may enable a creditor to secure performance of a shipowner’s obligations, while effective legal representation can help a debtor minimise losses and restore the vessel to operation as quickly as possible.
At the same time, a vessel may be arrested without sufficient legal grounds or in breach of applicable law. In such cases, detention of the vessel may result in disrupted voyages, financial losses and adverse consequences for shipowners, charterers, cargo interests, mortgagees and other parties involved in maritime operations.
Jurinflot provides legal assistance both to creditors seeking the arrest of a vessel and to parties seeking the release of vessels from unlawful arrest in Russia and foreign jurisdictions. We provide support at every stage of the proceedings.
