International legal practice with a Ukrainian foundation

Yacht management agreements

Legal support for yacht operations and management

Yacht management agreements define how the vessel is operated, who is responsible for key decisions and how risks are allocated between the owner, manager and service providers. We advise clients on structuring these arrangements to ensure clarity, control and proper allocation of responsibilities.

Why it matters

Poorly drafted management agreements may lead to loss of control, unexpected liabilities or disputes with managers and service providers.
We help clients ensure that management structures reflect their commercial objectives and protect their interests.

We assist with

  • drafting and negotiation of yacht management agreements;
  • structuring relationships between owners, managers and operators;
  • allocation of responsibilities and liability between parties;
  • advice on the scope of management services and the authority of the manager;
  • structuring reporting, control and termination mechanisms;
  • review of existing agreements and risk assessment.

We act for

  • yacht owners
  • yacht managers
  • investors

Our Approach

Deep knowledge of law and the industry

Rabomizo works with the norms of international maritime law and national maritime codes of various jurisdictions, grounded in a deep understanding of shipping operations and the commercial realities of the industry.

Experience in dispute resolution in international jurisdictions

We have represented clients in London, Greece, Turkey, Ukraine, Switzerland, Oman and other jurisdictions.

Rapid response in crisis situations

We promptly engage in communication with the parties involved, prepare well-grounded responses and develop a defence and negotiation strategy at any stage of the process.

Understanding of shipping operations

Our solutions take into account not only legal aspects but also the practical side of a shipowner’s or operator’s business. Clients do not need to spend time explaining – we understand the complexity of maritime processes and provide full support.

About us

Rabomizo law firm advises businesses engaged in transport and international trade, operating where assets, goods and services are crossing borders and changing the legal regimes. We support our clients in structuring solid business agreements, managing the risks and making decisions within complex multi-jurisdictional frameworks.

If the claims, delays, sanctions, restrictions, or disputes arise, we develop and implement a legal strategy, representing clients across the jurisdictions and legal systems. Our work combines sector knowledge with a clear understanding of the international regulatory environment.

We do not propose standardised solutions. We analyse the risks, assess the legal and commercial exposure, and provide clear, commercially grounded advice in cross-border matters.
