Though there are differences between standard property insurance and inland marine insurance, the process for seeking compensation via subrogation claims for insured or self-insured clients in the case of a loss is similar to that of property insurance claims. Key to maximizing recovery after a loss is a timely and thorough investigation. Our firm utilizes a network of forensic experts who provide valuable insights into the cause and extent of the damages to support these investigations.
Our process also involves a detailed examination of relevant documents, such as contracts and shipping records, as well as an analysis of any legal hurdles that might impede recovery, such as limits on liability or waivers of subrogation rights. With this comprehensive approach, we identify potential parties responsible for the loss and rigorously pursue compensation from them. Our legal team is skilled in negotiating settlements through alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods and, if necessary, taking legal action to enforce our clients’ rights. With experience in handling cases across the U.S., our lawyers are committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for our clients.
