Maritime & Admiralty
Winston’s Maritime & Admiralty team understands the challenges involved in doing business and navigating the maritime industry’s complex issues. Having represented a diverse mix of industry participants—from vessel owners and operators, businesses that charter vessels, and port authorities to others engaged in the financing of maritime-transportation assets—we have gained a deep understanding of the most important issues our clients face. While we are nationally recognized as a leading firm for difficult maritime problems involving U.S.-government policy, law, regulations, and enforcement, we also are actively involved in assisting clients with vessel financing, commercial transactions, and non-government-related admiralty litigation, including collisions, allisions, and cargo claims, among others.
