Loss Prevention and Loss Reduction
TMCA performs risk and loss analysis and recommends appropriate means to reduce the frequency and severity of the loss. In some cases, the proposals may eliminate the chance of specific loss entirely.
Subrogation and Recovery
TMCA undertakes any claim or case with potential
third party liability and subrogates on behalf of whom it may concerned.
Our systematic way of defining liability and obtaining documents/evidence
maximizes recovery potential. Based on the prospect of a particular case,
TMCA will decide whether to settle amicably or commence legal action through
its own Legal Department or outside counsels if the case in question warrants
such endeavor and actions.
Surveying & Investigating
TMCA surveys and investigates via its network of
surveyors/inspectors and Central Control system all types of cargo and
vessels on worldwide basis. Apart from damage surveys, our experts also
perform loading and discharge surveys on steel products and bulk cargo.
Reports and photographs transmitted via Internet, and electronic filing
keep clients promptly informed of the outcome of inspection.
Salvage
TMCA undertakes to arrange and direct all salvage
on all various cargo/merchandise on behalf of the party with interest.
Salvage sales or operations are conducted locally or internationally through
a vast worldwide network depending on the specifics of the case.
Adjusting & Negotiating
of Settlements
TMCA main offices in New York and Long Beach adjust
claims in accordance with the applicable policy terms and conditions as
they specifically relate to each case. Our highly trained adjusters are

Claims Settling

escrow accounts with concerned insurers/underwriters, TMCA’s settling
mechanism greatly facilitates the finalization of claims, through L.C
