Vessel Arrests & Vessel Attachments

When maritime debts go unpaid, or vessels commit trespasses, vessel arrest can occur to secure payment or hold them liable. This is a feature unique to maritime law, as a vessel is viewed as a "person" and can be held personally accountable for its debts and torts. 

Federal marshals are often requested to carry out the arrest, seizing the vessel on behalf of the lien holder. This mechanism available in admiralty serves to maintain accountability and facilitate the resolution of maritime disputes.

Navigating claims against ship owners can be a daunting task, but with Weisberg Law on your side, you can rest assured that we can help create a suitable strategy for you. Our team of experienced attorneys can provide you with advice on the best course of action to take toward resolving the matter. You can trust us to handle your case with the utmost professionalism and diligence as we work with you.
