Publisher's Synopsis
This is a guide to the principles of marine insurance claims. Fully revised, the text now includes: the York-Antwerp Rules 1994; the final revision of the Institute Time Clauses; and developments in pollution liability, including OPA 90. Once a claim has arisen, it is in the interests of all parties that matters proceed as smoothly as possible. By explaining what should be happening, what you should be doing and when, this handbook should help shipping, legal and insurance practitioners alike to avoid damaging mistakes and delays in the claims process. The book also includes information that is relevant to the debate concerning the limitation of P&I cover.
