Port law

Port law
Port law is a specialty within public law that has gained notoriety for its own uniqueness. It is also a discipline where, within a limited physical space, together with the interests of the private sector, the interaction of both entities and public bodies, as well as the local, autonomous and state public administration, concur.
Given the particularities of the specialty, the scope of action MA Abogados covers goes from both the sphere of ports of general interest, and ports of lower scope, offering legal advice and legal assistance in:
- Regulatory matters: authorizations / concessions
- Management and provision of port services
- Renewal / expansion of port concessions
- Contracting in public port law
- Abandonment / sinking of ships
- Arbitration and mediation (Port Authorities, Court / Maritime Court)
- Patrimonial Responsibility
- Infringements and sanctions
- Regulation of dredging
- Concessions of Nautical Clubs and Ports of Sports
