Fazlina is a Partner in the firm’s Shipping practice.

Prior to her sojourn, Fazlina trained and practiced at Oon & Bazul. There she received training from a Mariner Lawyer in casualty crisis management and wet shipping. She also regularly worked with trained marine professionals, including Marine Engineers and surveyors, in collating evidence and building case theories from ground up. In this time, she worked on various wet and dry shipping cases including allisions and collisions, fires on board, cargo damage and shortage, bunker contamination and engine damage and bread-and-butter bills of lading cases. Thereafter she practiced in an English law firm where her work included shipbuilding disputes, GAFTA arbitrations and oil and gas contract review / disputes amongst others.

Fazlina brings with her a full-suite of experience from the maritime ecosystem. Following her time in practice, Fazlina joined an IGPANDI Club in a role straddling both P&I claims and LCC matters. In this role, she became familiar with handling incidents and claims, whilst taking heed of members’ and brokers’ needs. In this role, she also became familiar with the interpretation and application of club rules. She later took on a role in-house at a publicly-listed Scandinavian asset-light operator which allowed her to be intimately familiar with the company’s operational, commercial and regulatory needs which included real-time and new-age issues such as sanctions (US, UK, EU and other sanctions) and the regulation of carbon emissions in the maritime industry.
