Maritime / Admiralty software built around the dates, records and paperwork of the work
Maritime claims move quickly: a vessel can sail before a lawyer arrives, a cargo claim has a short notice requirement and a seaman’s injury follows its own regime. The workspace holds the charter, the laytime, the cargo or injury claim, any arrest and the limitation action.
Dates it keeps for you
Each of these is counted from a date your team types, placed in the matter calendar, and confirmed by the responsible attorney.
Cargo claim notice and suit
Notice of loss and the suit period under COGSA are counted from delivery and calendared.
Seaman and longshore injuries
Notice and claim periods for each regime run from the injury date.
Arrest, security and release
The dates of arrest, posted security and release are tracked against the vessel.
Limitation of liability
The filing date for a limitation action is counted from the first written claim.
What the matter holds
Typed records, not a narrative note: each fact is entered once and every calculation, form and document reads from it.
Charter parties
Parties, rates and the clauses that allocate time and risk.
Laytime and demurrage
Events recorded as they occurred, with laytime and demurrage calculated from the charter terms.
Cargo claims
The cargo, the damage, the survey and the notice given, with the date of delivery from which the periods run.
Injuries
Seaman and longshore claims with the medical record and the benefits paid.
Salvage and general average
Contributions and security among the parties at risk.
Prepared for you
Forms are the agency’s own PDF, filled from the record. Documents are prepared from the same rows for the attorney to edit.
The workspace, step by step
The order a matter moves through the maritime / admiralty workspace.
- Vessel
- Charter
- Laytime
- Cargo
- Injury
- Salvage and average
- Arrest
- Limitation
What it does not do
- Laytime figures come from the charter terms and the events as typed; the platform does not infer a statement of facts.
- Statutory periods are reference data an attorney verifies.
How the legal content here is checked
This page describes the software; no attorney is named as its reviewer, so none is shown. Behind the maritime / admiralty workspace, each deadline rule, limitation period and legal figure is stored with its citation and is recorded as verified only once a named attorney has confirmed it, with that attorney's name and the date; showing that record beside every rule on screen is still in progress. The coverage page counts how many are verified, by practice area and state.
What you can hold us to
Law Hired is practice software, not a law firm or legal-advice service
Every date and figure is counted from what the firm enters and verified by the responsible attorney
Law that changes is reference data with its citation, checked by an attorney before it is relied on
Availability is described separately from production verification
Questions firms ask
Does it calculate demurrage?
Yes, from the recorded events and the charter’s laytime terms. The calculation is stored with its inputs.
Can it track cargo-claim notice?
Notice of loss and the suit period are counted from the delivery date and placed on the calendar.
Does it handle a vessel arrest?
It tracks the arrest, the security posted and the release, with the papers prepared from the record.
Does Law Hired give maritime / admiralty legal advice?
No. Law Hired is practice software. It records, calculates and prepares from what the firm enters, and the responsible attorney verifies every date, figure and document before anyone relies on it.
