Dispute resolution

Shipping specialist Tang & Co operates in association with Singapore international law firm Helmsman. The firm’s Hong Kong office specialises in shipping and commodities disputes and transactional work, insolvency, shareholders disputes and general commercial litigation. Managing partner Chong Jun Tang is a key figure.

Among shipping disputes, the firm is advising Index-Cool Marine & Industry in an action to recover payment for ship-repair services rendered to the cruise ship Ocean Dream. This ship-repair claim is being heard before the Hong Kong District Court. In another case, the firm is assisting Glory Future Shipping (HK) with preparation of loan and mortgage documentations to finance the ongoing costs of salvage for vessel Glory Future.

The firm hired Una Khng as director from the Singapore Supreme Court in October 2022.

Key clients include Elim Spring Marine, PT Indobaruna Bulk Transport, Rudder Shipbroker and Star Harbor International Travel Company.
