    Embark on a riveting journey as Michael, a veteran maritime lawyer, sheds light on the complexities of maritime law sparked by the collision of the container ship Dali with the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore. The first chapter of our discussion steers through the legal presumptions and navigational rules that govern the seas, revealing how these centuries-old principles still profoundly impact the resolution of maritime incidents. Michael's narrative intertwines the threads of his professional path with America's rich seafaring past, creating a tapestry that illustrates the depth and influence of admiralty law in modern navigation and litigation.

    As we sail into the murky waters of maritime terminology, Michael clarifies the distinction between 'alision' and 'collision'—terms that might sound synonymous but carry significantly different legal connotations. The conversation anchors on a real-world example, dissecting the responsibilities of a vessel's captain versus those of a state-assigned pilot, and delves into the crucial protocols that must be followed when technical issues arise onboard. Drawing parallels with historic maritime disasters, we explore the enduring question of how crews communicate critical information and the legal ramifications that follow.

    The final chapter of our voyage investigates the aftermath of maritime tragedies, focusing on the role of the NTSB and the interplay between public opinion and the legal system. Through the lens of Captain John Laro's story and the heart-wrenching bridge collision he was involved with, we scrutinize the legal strategies employed and the evidentiary hurdles navigated in courtrooms. Michael's insights offer a beacon of understanding for anyone intrigued by the intricacies of maritime law and the quest for justice on the open seas. Join us for a podcast episode that promises to leave you with a newfound respect for the legal guardians of our waterways.
