Our Services

OIKONOMAKIS CHRISTOS GLOBAL LAW FIRM offers a number of services related to the aforementioned field of law, no matter how exotic and out-of-the-ordinary this might sound, due to the fact that the managerial seat of our Firm is situated in the city of Piraeus, host of one of the busiest and most commercial harbors not in Greece but globally. The maritime tradition of the port of Piraeus is undisputed, and our Firm constitutes part of this long-established tradition, despite the pressure extended during the last decade which hopefully has become a long-forgotten past of the sort that no-one wishes to witness ever before. Our advice extends to:
• Advising on national and European shipping regulatory and legislative framework
• Registration of vessels
• Reflagging
• Restructuring of shipping corporations
• Representing clients before local and international Arbitration and even Litigation Authorities/ Courts of Law if that is the inevitable case.

Maritime law is the law that exclusively governs activities at sea or in general in navigable waters; even more so, and according to the Cambridge dictionary, Maritime Law is “the collection of laws related to ships and the transport of goods by sea”. Thus and in a few words matters related to shipping law, including admiralty and marine-related matters all consist part of the agenda of this specific and specialized field of law.
