Partner / Head of Cargo Casualty

完整简历

Jai is the head of Clyde & Co's marine cargo casualty practice.

He focuses on marine casualty cases and recoveries, and is one of very few solicitors with extensive experience of salvage and GA claims from a cargo perspective. He has been involved in about 500 marine casualties for cargo underwriters during his career.

Cases he has handled include a number of very significant reported English maritime cases, for example "OLYMPIC GALAXY", "NEW FLAME", "AQASIA", "EURASIAN DREAM" and "CMA CGM LIBRA" as well as reported cases in other jurisdictions, such as Singapore, India and the Marshall Islands.

Other notable casualties Jai has been involved in are the "MOL COMFORT", "MSC FLAMINIA", "HYUNDAI FORTUNE", "APL PANAMA", "YM GREEN", "HANJIN ITALY", "HEUNG-A DRAGON", "MAERSK SEOUL", "PANAMAX TRADER", "MAERSK HONAM" and “EVER GIVEN”.

Jai is recognised by Legal 500 as a recommended lawyer for shipping in London and South East England and was placed fifth in Lloyd's List of the Top 10 maritime lawyers in 2020.

Jai also has a number of disputes in the automotive sector, related to his lifelong interest in classic cars and as a competitive participant in historic motorsport over many years.

Jai Sharma is an absolutely excellent solicitor. He has a very quick legal brain and can really think outside the box. He always has the key facts at his fingertips and he is very commercially astute. Much loved by clients and a pleasure to work with.
