Marine Claims & P&I Correspondence, Handled Without Delay
As the officially appointed correspondent in Albania for almost all member clubs of the prestigious International Group of P&I Clubs (IGP&I) and leading fixed-premium underwriters, Samer & Misa coordinates round-the-clock emergency casualty response, marine claims handling, and maritime disputes. Our deep integration with port authorities, local courts, and salvage operations ensures that any incident in Albanian territorial waters is met with immediate, expert care.
From the critical moment a maritime incident occurs, our designated claims team works closely with shipowners, charterers, and insurers. We dispatch experienced marine surveyors to cargo terminals, shipyards, or offshore anchorages, establishing clear, real-time lines of communication. Whether handling wet cargo disputes, crew repatriation logistics, or complex pollution liability issues, our priority is to protect our principals’ financial and legal interests while minimizing operational down-time.
