     Summary

Marine claims is a subject full of controversial situations and any person entering into this field will find it challenging. At times the work can even be exciting, for some of the stories of the seas are every bit as thrilling as a best selling novel, particularly when salvage services are rendered. On other occasions one can be dealing with the problems of cargo owners, or losses emanating from catastrophes in various parts of the globe. However, to achieve a grasp of the essentials of all the different aspects of marine insurance claims takes years of practice, and it is obvious that some form of further education is desirable for those who wish to obtain a more rapid and fuller understanding of their chosen profession. Author have therefore attempted to fill a need in the marine market for a book dealing entirely with marine claims, especially for the practitioner in this branch of activity who requires to master a mass of legal background as well as the necessary procedures according to English law and practice.
