The client's contract contained conflicting provisions
regarding the terms and conditions of cargo discharge. Protecting
the charterer's interests required applying statutory and
court-established methods of contract interpretation.

shipowner had included time in the calculation that should not have

charterer from the alleged liabilities and awarding compensation
for legal expenses incurred.
