MFB Solicitors
MFB is a specialist shipping law firm established in 1988. Our international client base includes ship owners, charterers, cargo interests, salvors, P&I Clubs and other insurers. We pride ourselves on our wealth of legal knowledge and experience in shipping, insurance and international trade. Our integrated team, which is hallmarked by a high level of partner involvement, is big enough to handle the largest of shipping matters, yet small enough to provide a personal touch from experienced practitioners, at reasonable cost. Difficult issues can arise in low-value cases as well as large ones. We do not consider that small cases are unimportant but recognise that they may require a different approach: flexibility is the key. The firm provides high quality legal advice, placing great importance on working closely with clients and understanding their business requirements. Our aim is to provide prompt, cost-effective results and we offer a variety of pricing arrangements tailored to our clients’ needs and wishes. We do not aim to take cases to court or arbitration. Sometimes that is unavoidable, but we recognise that it is usually better for all if an early solution can be achieved. Often, we can achieve that without any formality but, where appropriate, we have extensive experience of Alternative Dispute Resolution, including mediation.
