Maritime Partner Charlie Papavizas Discusses the Jones Act on Platts Podcast

Maritime & Admiralty Practice Chair Charlie Papavizas was featured on the October 19 edition of Platts Capitol Crude: The U.S. Oil Policy Podcast. Mr. Papavizas joined Platts senior editors Herman Wang and Brian Scheid as they examined how the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement and Coast Guard are publicly pushing Customs and Border Protection for some relief from the Jones Act, the popular, century-old law. Listen to the full podcast, “Reforming the Jones Act on safety is anything but smooth sailing for U.S. oil,” here.

Mr. Papavizas focuses his practice on administrative, legislative, and corporate matters, primarily in the maritime industry. He is frequently consulted on the application of U.S. coastwise laws (Jones Act) to cargo, passenger, and vessel movements and investments in U.S. companies.
