THE FIRM
Facts first. Then opinions.
Since 1998, SE.CO.MAR. has attended casualties, cargoes and vessels on behalf of major shipping companies, operators, underwriters and Protecting & Indemnity Clubs.
Our job is simple to state and hard to do well: establish the facts on the ground quickly, protect our principal’s position, and report with the clarity a claims file demands.
