While Admiralty International is not a law firm, and none of its principals and associates now practice law, several of its senior Directors are lawyers and hold Juris Doctor degrees. The firm’s Managing Director has practiced law for the US Department of Commerce and the international law firm of Graham and James. He is a member of the US Federal and State of California Bars. Other Directors are also lawyers with significant experience. This training and experience has given the firm and its specialists a grounding in important areas of:
- Corporate law
- Partnership law
- Joint ventures
- Contract law
- Documentation
- Banking law
- International law
- Trade and trade finance law
- Product liability
- Labor law
- Legislation and regulations
- Debtors’ rights and creditors’ remedies
- Export and import laws, regulations and practices.
The firm’s principals can often act as an effective intermediary between clients and both the clients’ and opposing law firms. In the capacity of independent, experienced commercially astute lawyers, we are often able to streamline structures and documentation, to speed up negotiations and settlements in cases where law firms tend to bog down or run up fees. We can delineate legal requirements and supervise the work of the lawyers. This ensures quality control of documents and transaction structure, and a timely and equitable settlement.
