Drafting and Negotiating Maritime Agreements: Key Provisions, Transferring Risk, Preserving Market Expectations

This CLE webinar will discuss drafting and negotiating maritime contracts. The speakers will address key contract provisions, risk management strategies, market expectations, and negotiation strategies for attorneys engaged in domestic and international shipping, transport, and maritime finance.

Attorneys advising maritime clients must be comfortable with a wide range of complex transactional matters unique to maritime trade. Counsel must know the key contract provisions related to the transaction while keeping in mind any dispute resolution procedures if things do not go as planned. 

Counsel really needs three types of insight. They have to understand the facts of the parties, the deal, and the risks involved. Then they must have the negotiation skills to come to an advantageous agreement. Finally, they must be able to put the deal into writing to ensure it is enforceable.

Listen as our panel of prominent attorneys offers best practices for maritime contracting that supports uninterrupted and efficient operations.
