Transportation
Clausen Miller attorneys handle all aspects of transportation matters related to airplanes, automobiles, railroads, motor carriers, sea going vessels and more. We have significant experience providing coverage opinions to our clients, as well as handling declaratory judgment actions. We are very familiar with CARMACK and COGSA claims, including damage occurring during warehousing of goods, equipment and materials. Our experience encompasses the handling of property damage claims caused by all types of accidents including fires and explosions, toxic contamination, product failures, structural failures and design errors.
Our defense experience includes representation of European and domestic underwriters of oceangoing freighters, cruise fleets and casino vessels, to small excursion boat owners and marine construction companies operating on the nation's waterways. We also handle cargo loss claims.
Our subrogation practice is very diverse. Our clients have retained us to pursue losses arising out of minor automobile accidents to "priceless" goods damaged during shipment; from theft of goods off a truck to sinking of a barge. Since our transportation recovery practice has been ongoing for over twenty years, the extent of our practice and databases is vast. We frequently pursue well known common carriers as well as security companies.
Clausen Miller represents a national bus transportation company for claims involving personal injury and property damage accidents.
