Maritime Law – legal services for ports, shipowners, freight forwarders, and carriers
We understand the challenges facing the maritime industry. When it comes to implementing maritime cybersecurity and AI-based solutions, the help of experienced lawyers is essential. We review, advise, and assist in the implementation process, using our business knowledge and experience in managing large, complex projects.
Under the legal supervision of attorney-at-law Anna Kluczek-Kollár, the firm works in the following areas:
- Technological solutions for the maritime industry, including the area of AI
- Ongoing legal services for shipowners, ports, terminals, logistics centers, freight forwarding and transport companies, and port authorities
- Port investment and infrastructure development

AI in Seaports
New technologies are transforming the way seaports operate. Artificial intelligence solutions are playing an increasingly important role in managing traffic, logistics, and infrastructure security. Implementing AI in ports requires adapting procedures and documentation to rapidly evolving regulations.
At LO:ME Attorneys-at-Law, we provide legal services dedicated to maritime sector entities that need to:
- Design and implement procedures for the use of artificial intelligence in port management
Prepare or review technological and legal documentation to ensure compliance with supervision and control requirements relating to maritime safety
Protect their legal interests when implementing new AI systems — from contracts with technology providers to liability frameworks governing the operation of intelligent systems
Maritime and port investments
Whether your port investment is publicly or privately funded, LO:ME has experience in such projects and can support you in:
- Legal advisory – we provide guidance in preparing the investment process, making optimal decisions, and implementing legally compliant solutions.
- Documentation preparation – we handle the formal aspects of investments, including drafting legal documentation, obtaining necessary expert reports, permits, opinions, and analyses, as well as preparing and submitting required documents.
- Contract negotiations – we draft and negotiate agreements with subcontractors and construction partners, ensuring our clients’ interests are fully protected. When needed, we propose practical and reasonable solutions based on our experience in managing investment projects.
- Legal supervision of investments – we provide ongoing support at every stage of maritime investment projects. We ensure that all actions comply with the law and advise on effective solutions in case of challenges or disputes.
We support maritime investors from the start of the project until the facility is commissioned and subsequently assist during its operational phase. We draft contracts and regulations, ensure compliance of maritime operations with the law, and provide ongoing legal advisory for the subsequent stages of the project’s development.
Transport, freight forwarding, and logistics sector
We understand how crucial transport and logistics are in the maritime industry. That’s why we provide legal support across all areas of this sector. We have experience resolving disputes with freight forwarders and shipowners. We advise both companies engaged in maritime transport and their clients who face issues with carriers or service providers.
- Legal advice – we provide guidance on liability for transported goods on the part of carriers and freight forwarders, as well as on matters related to carrier and forwarder liability insurance.
