Port and Harbour Law

Ports are important hubs for business, transport and regional development. Port operations are governed by a comprehensive legal framework in which public and commercial interests intersect, making sound legal advice essential to both day-to-day operations and future development.

We advise port companies, municipalities, public-sector organisations and private entities on port and harbour law and related areas of law. Our lawyers have experience with legislation governing ports and navigable waters, the exercise of public authority, land use and development matters, contracts, lease and usage agreements, public procurement and dispute resolution.

Through our work, we have developed a thorough understanding of the legal and practical challenges facing the port sector. We focus on providing advice that creates predictability, supports sound decision-making and facilitates the efficient management of both day-to-day operations and major development projects.

We aim to be a long-term legal partner to stakeholders in the port sector, providing advice that creates certainty and lays the foundation for sustainable development.
