SHIPPING

Attorneys at law Borenius offers a comprehensive array of services in shipping, transport and related insurance law and is a leading service provider in Finland for this specialised field. We also have an extensive base in international ship finance to cover all major areas of shipping law.

Close to 90 per cent of the Finnish export trade volume (in metric tons) and close to 80 per cent of the total foreign trade volume is transported by sea. Hence, carriage by sea is the lifeblood of Finnish foreign trade, and the involvement of foreign ship owners is significant.

Our lawyers advise domestic and international clients on matters that include charter party disputes, cargo claims, collision matters, salvage, general average, pollution, ITF matters and arrest proceedings.
