Cruise Lines
With offices near three of the top five cruise ports in the country, Shutts & Bowen is a legal provider for the cruise industry. Our strength in this area comes from our considerable experience managing corporate, maritime and litigation issues that affect major cruise lines.
In recent years, we've taken part in the industry's explosive growth by handling acquisitions and sales of cruise ships. We're also experienced in negotiating agreements with contractors and concessionaires, litigating and arbitrating disputes, advising management on labor issues and addressing environmental concerns.
Shutts & Bowen's skilled counselors confront the many legal risks posed by international maritime operations. From admiralty and government law, to corporate finance, employment and litigation, our work is based on a tactical approach. Solid attorney relationships also provide critical access to port authorities, government agencies, industry contractors, banks and marine insurance firms.
