About the show
The Shipping Lawyer Podcast is here to make maritime law make sense.
I’m a practicing shipping lawyer, and each episode breaks down the concepts, clauses, and commercial realities that shape this industry — from contracts and claims to charter partie and carriage. Whether you're new to shipping, building your confidence, or just need a refresher, you'll find clear, practical explanations you can actually use.
Most episodes are short and focused — built to fit into your workday. And when something major hits the headlines, I’ll occasionally drop a special edition.
Welcome aboard!
