Polar Code Legal Briefing

The latest legal briefing from our team covers the Polar Code: a new regulation for polar shipping.

This briefing is one of a continuing series which aims to share the legal expertise within the Club with our Members.

A significant proportion of the expertise in the Managers’ offices around the world consists of lawyers who can advise Members on general P&I related legal, contractual and documentary issues.

If you have any enquiries regarding the issues covered in this briefing, please contact Hannah Charles (hannah.charles@thomasmiller.com) Jacqueline Tan (jacqueline.tan@thomasmiller.com)
