Hall & Wilcox has a longstanding reputation for acting for domestic and international insurers across the shipping industry, handling associated claims involving marine liability, P&I, and cargo and carriers’ liabilities. Heading the practice in Sydney, Chris Sacré combines significant experience in shipping, international trade, and marine insurance, allowing him to advise on both contentious and non-contentious shipping matters. The arrivals of Pauline Davies, who joined as special counsel from Fee Langstone in New Zealand in November 2024, strengthened the team’s expertise in domestic and international dispute resolution.
