What happens when crew speak up—and get fired for it?



In part two of this three-part legal series on UNCENSORED, maritime lawyer and former U.S. Navy Reserve officer Adria Notari returns to confront one of the most taboo issues in yachting: retaliation against crew who report abuse, assault, or safety violations.



From unlawful termination and unenforceable NDAs to what crew can do without a written contract, this is a masterclass in real-world maritime law that crew at every level need to hear.



🔹 What happens if you’re fired after reporting abuse

🔹 How NDAs are used to silence crew — and why they may not hold up in court

🔹 Your legal rights even without a contract

🔹 When and where to file a case — and why jurisdiction matters

🔹 How vessel arrest works and why it can be a powerful legal tool

🔹 The difference between employers, operators, and management companies



💼 About the Guest:

Adria Notari is a licensed maritime lawyer, former seafarer, and passionate advocate for crew rights. Through Notari Law, she fights for the legal protections yacht crew are entitled to — no matter where in the world they’re based.
