Shipwreck Law

Shipwreck Law, also known as maritime law or admiralty law, is a branch of law that governs activities at sea and navigable waters. It addresses issues like shipwrecks, salvage rights, and maritime injuries. When a ship wrecks, the law outlines who is responsible for the wreck, how property can be salvaged, and compensation for losses. It also helps resolve disputes between ship owners, crew members, and cargo owners. Essentially, it provides a legal framework to ensure safety and fairness in maritime operations and resolve conflicts arising from incidents at sea.
