Maritime Law
Alternatively known as admiralty law, Maritime Law is a body of Law concerning nautical matters, disputes, and offences. It governs domestic and private international Law regarding maritime activities and operations, typically commercial. It is distinct from its public international law counterpart, the Law of the Sea. The International Maritime Organization is the leading authority in this field, ensuring maritime agreements are up-to-date and amended where necessary.
