Insurance Law Podcast Discusses Issues Surrounding a Cargo Transportation Case


OLDWICK, N.J. --(Business Wire)--

Raab discusses a cargo transportation case dealing with damage from improper loading and the limitation of liability. He explains how COGSA, the U.S. Carriage of Goods by Sea Act, relats to this case, how the "Himalaya Clause" affected the decision and if an appeal seems likely.
