LMAA (London Maritime Arbitrators Association)

The London Maritime Arbitrators Association (LMAA) is a professional organization that provides specialized arbitration services to resolve disputes related to shipping, cargo, and maritime contracts. When parties involved in maritime business have disagreements, they can agree to have their issues decided by neutral arbitrators from the LMAA rather than going to court. This process is generally faster, flexible, and experienced in maritime matters. The LMAA sets guidelines, maintains a panel of expert arbitrators, and facilitates fair, confidential, and efficient resolution of disputes within the maritime industry worldwide.
