| Impact statement: This article critically examines the International Conventions on Ship Arrest adopted in 1952 and 1999 and argues that both conventions inadequately protect maritime claimants. The author analyzes how limitations in ship arrest procedures may disadvantage parties seeking to enforce maritime claims, particularly in international shipping disputes. By evaluating the legal and practical shortcomings of these conventions, the article contributes to discussions on maritime law reform, international commercial dispute resolution, and the effectiveness of global shipping regulations. The study is relevant to maritime lawyers, policymakers, shipping industry professionals, and scholars of international trade law. | Collaboration: None | Keywords: ship arrest, maritime law, maritime claims, international conventions, shipping disputes, admiralty law, maritime commerce, shi |
