Shipping Litigation Lawyer, London, 2+ PQE

1 day ago


London, United Kingdom Jameson Legal Full time

Due to the continued growth of the practice, our client is seeking talented and experienced associates for the Shipping team. You can expect to advise on all types of shipping, shipbuilding and offshore disputes, as well as work-outs and bank enforcements. You will work for a diverse range of clients located in Europe and worldwide, including some of the largest shipowners and charterers, their P&I and defence clubs, shipyards and banks.

You will focus primarily on litigation and arbitration matters. Litigation work will typically be before the Commercial Court in London, but may involve co-ordinating proceedings in other jurisdictions. Arbitration work may be institutional (typically ICC, LCIA or SIAC), on LMAA Terms or ad hoc.

You will develop your legal skills as a contract lawyer (particularly with respect to charterparty disputes and the carriage of goods) and be given exposure to a wide range of clients. You will also broaden your skillset to include drafting and advisory work.

You will develop your career working with recognised colleagues on some of the most significant maritime and offshore matters in the industry, supported by a team which focuses on collegiality, learning and support in growing your own network and profile.

Lawyers frequently act in high profile disputes involving complex legal and commercial problems. They often have to advise on cross-border and jurisdictional disputes which has resulted in a considerable pool of experience relating to the majority of important maritime jurisdictions. Clients include many of the world's largest ship owners, shipyards, insurers, P&I clubs, energy services companies, commodities traders and banks.

The size of the team both in London and globally and the depth of its experience means that the team is well positioned to advise on any shipping or trade-related concern, from the most complex marine incident or financing structure, to the more straightforward cargo claim or sale and purchase dispute.

Minimum Requirements:

Candidates will be England and Wales qualified, with litigation/arbitration experience (preferably to include shipping or commodities work but, in the absence of direct experience, a keen interest in the sector).

For a confidential chat about this, or other roles which we are handling, please contact Laura Klass on laura.klass@jamesonlegal.com.
