Hill Dickinson Bolsters Marine Practice

December 21, 2016

International law firm Hill Dickinson has reached an agreement that will bring the shipping practice of Swinnerton Moore LLP to the firm.
 
The agreement is expected to be finalized by the end of February and will see founding partners Tony Swinnerton and Lewis Moore join Hill Dickinson’s City of London office. Tony and Lewis bring with them an established roster of distinguished clients from across the international marine market.
 
Tony Swinnerton specializes in all aspects of contentious dry shipping and has extensive experience of conducting arbitrations and High Court cases where he has acted predominantly for ship owners and their insurers, traders and charterers.
 
Lewis Moore specializes in ship sale and purchase, ship finance and all shipping related contentious matters. In addition, Lewis is an accredited Center for Effective Dispute Resolution mediator and regularly represents clients in mediation.
 
The move follows the recent announcement that Julian Clark will be joining the firm as global head of shipping in January.
