Marine
Freight Liability
We provide insurance protection for carriers and bailees such as hauliers, warehouse-keepers, couriers and freight forwarders.
Liability under freight liability arises through statute, contract or common law. Conditions of carriage set out the obligation between carrier or bailee and the customer and these should be included into the contract of carriage. Without these specified conditions a carrier is bound by common law. Some conditions of carriage are imposed by statute because of the nature of the goods and/or the method transport.
Please speak to your usual Marine contact for further details.
