Compose a 3000 words assignment on shipping law. Needs to be plagiarism free! carriage and its acceptance by the shipper, including the advertisement of the carriage,

the booking notice, any statements by agents, and other such evidence, with the bill of

lading as the capstone. Since, the bill of lading is only signed by one party, the agent of

the carrier, with the shipper or his forwarding agent, responsible for the description of the

goods to be loaded or already loaded, the bill of lading has been described as a contract

for adhesion or a standard form contract if the shipper is using the usual forms provided

by the carrier. The named consignee, often the shipper himself, is also a party to bill of

lading, first, by receiving the goods at its destination upon producing the bill of lading,

and, second, as he may assume the risk covered by insurance during the voyage although

he has not yet acquired title to the goods.

(b) TC has indicated to Susan that he will accept liability to her for damage to half of

the goods. He intends to limit this liability under the US Carriage of Goods by Sea

Act 1936. Susan has said that as she is the lawful holder of the bills of lading, she

can sue him for all of the goods and that the Hague-Visby Rules will apply. Is

Susan correct in these beliefs

Hague-Visby Rules is one of the rule which defines the rights and

duties of parties in a contract of carriage of goods by sea, insurance for goods, and

transfer of title. The Hague and Hague- Visby rules are generally identical, except for

provisions dealing with limitations of liability, third parties and a few minor areas.
