Sylla & Partners provides maritime law advice in Guinea and internationally, assisting shipowners, operators and project sponsors with regulatory, contractual and operational matters. Based in Conakry, we advise clients involved in maritime transport, offshore activities, port operations and projects connected to the extractive, energy and infrastructure sectors.
Maritime and admiralty law encompasses a set of rules applicable to shipbuilding, offshore activities, and maritime navigation.
As a multidisciplinary field, maritime law draws on international law, regional community law, and domestic law.
Maritime law covers matters that may call into question the legal regime governing vessels and the liability of their crews, as well as chartering and maritime transport contracts. It also addresses issues relating to vessel registration and maritime sales, coastal protection, and maritime safety.
