Shipping specialist Andrew Gray will be joining law firm Clyde & Co’s global marine team from early 2016.

Gray has been a shipping lawyer in the Asia-Pacific region for more than 11 years, and has specialist expertise in marine insurance and wet matters.

“Clyde & Co has a worldwide and regional reputation in shipping law,” said Gray. “The firm has an immediate focus on growing its admiralty practice across the Asia-Pacific region. I am excited to be a part of this strategy which concentrates on my key practice area.”

Gray’s work includes marine and offshore casualty response and investigation, collision, oil pollution, fire, piracy, cargo loss and general marine insurance claims, according to Clyde & Co.

Gray will join the Clyde & Co Clasis Singapore office from Hill Dickinson, where he was a partner in the marine, trade and energy team.
