We advise on any kind of transaction or dispute that involves ownership. We can assist on litigation, tax, holding structures, employment and art on yachts. We have helped on a diverse range of vessels acquired for different purposes.

Our expertise covers both pre- and post-acquisition; whether this is advance due diligence or issues that arise following purchase.
