Should a dispute culminate in litigation proceedings, LOC is able to provide expert advice and written/oral evidence at court or arbitration hearings. Our experts have given expert evidence in all of the world’s major maritime law courts and arbitration centres in some of the largest and complex cases.
LOC’s services in relation to personal injury include re-constructions of the incident, gathering evidence, taking statements from crew, reviewing health, safety and operational procedures, commissioning and witnessing forensic laboratory testing and preparing/giving advice on incident prevention.
