On 17 November 2015, Reed Smith and Erçin Bilgin Bektaşoğlu Law Firms held a joint seminar at the Turkish Shipbuilders’ Association on how to minimize yards’ exposure in ship repair and shipbuilding contracts. The seminar was widely attended by various shipyards and received media coverage as can be seen at http://www.denizhaber.com.tr/gemi-insada-tersane-riskleri-gisbirde-tartisildi-haber-65012.htm
