The leading light in cargo, insurance and related casualty matters.
Our global cargo team supports clients in managing all cargo issues. We focus on dealing with and solving problems at whatever stage they occur during the transportation process. We are experienced in handling disputes involving bills of lading, quantity or quality, shortage or contamination claims, General Average and advice on letters of indemnity.
We work closely with our clients to collect evidence, obtain security, including coordinating arrest or attachment proceedings, and consider jurisdictional and contractual options. Our international network allows us to be on the ground in different jurisdictions, dealing with our clients' interests at the point of contact.
Many of our team members have been advising on Lloyd’s Open Form Salvage arbitrations for several decades. Acting for insurers around the world, we have dealt with over 1,500 cases in the last 40 years.
We are flexible when developing the most appropriate claims handling procedure for each client and will adopt the most appropriate solution whether by negotiation, mediation, arbitration or litigation, to achieve the optimum result.
