GOEL and GOEL’S Co. invites applications for its Virtual Internship in Maritime Law. Learn global shipping, port, and marine legal systems. Are you passionate about the world of shipping, international trade, marine insurance, and port regulations? Do you dream of navigating the complex and evolving legal seas of the maritime industry? If yes, then your voyage begins here!
GOEL and GOEL’S Co. is proud to officially announce the launch of its Virtual Internship in Maritime Law, beginning June 2025. Tailored especially for law students and recent LLM. graduates, this program offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on legal exposure in one of the most dynamic and international branches of law.
Why Maritime Law?
Maritime law, often referred to as admiralty law, governs the issues that arise in nautical matters and maritime commerce. From shipping contracts and marine insurance to port regulations and environmental compliance, maritime law is as vast as the oceans themselves.
As globalization fuels trade across continents, the demand for legal professionals skilled in maritime frameworks is on the rise. Ports are the entry and exit points of international commerce, and the legal systems that regulate them must be understood to effectively advise clients, mitigate risks, and ensure compliance. For aspiring lawyers looking to work at the intersection of international business and regulation, a virtual internship in maritime law is the perfect start.
What You Will Gain
This internship is not just a learning module—it is a practical gateway to the maritime legal world. Interns will benefit from:
1. Real-World Maritime Casework
Work directly on case briefs, advisories, and shipping disputes. Understand how admiralty courts function and assist in preparing documentation for arbitration or litigation.
2. Legal Research and Compliance
Dive into comparative legal research, compliance audits, and regulatory checklists concerning flag state laws, shipping companies, marine environmental laws, and more.
3. Exposure to International Conventions
Study major international treaties and conventions such as SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea), MARPOL (Marine Pollution), and UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea). Learn how these frameworks affect domestic legal practice and global commerce.
4. Port and Shipping Regulations
Understand the layered framework governing Indian ports, private shipping entities, customs law, and coastal trade. Engage in research projects that simulate real challenges faced by port operators and maritime legal advisors.
Who Should Apply?
This internship is ideal for:
- Final-year law students with an interest in international trade or commercial law
- LLM. graduates seeking to specialize in maritime or transport law
- Young legal professionals exploring niche areas of law for career development
