Shipping lawyers at Watson Farley & Williams (WFW) have warned that a UK High Court’s recognition of a negligence claim brought by the widow of a shipbreaker against Maran Tankers has "far reaching implications for the shipping industry".
As reported by TradeWinds, a High Court judge refused to throw out the widow’s negligence claim against Maran Tankers for the death of her husband during the demolition of one of its VLCCs in Bangladesh.
