Idaho: Admiralty Maritime Law
Maritime law governs sea navigation, commerce and shipping. It encompasses the rights, duties and liabilities of ship owners and other maritime workers. Commonly referred to as admiralty law, this body of law derived from the British admiralty courts that could be found in most U.S colonies. A uniform body of maritime law is applied both nationally and internationally to assist commerce. Idaho maritime law can include shipping, commerce, navigation, docks, seamen, piers, maritime liens, finds and salvage, canals, insurance, recreation, maritime injury and piracy. Maritime and admiralty lawyers often deal with claims from injured seamen. Employers are required to keep a safe work environment for their employees.
