Very few lawyers have successfully handled maritime injury cases, also sometimes referred to as Jones Act cases.
We have successfully handled injury claims for those injured who work at the ports and on vessels pursuant to the Jones Act. Please call us if you have been injured in an accident at the ports or on a vessel or if someone you know has been injured or killed in an accident at the ports or on a vessel.
Your case may not be limited to a workers compensation claim. Few lawyers know how to properly evaluate whether your claim can be brought pursuant to the Jones Act and it can make a substantial difference in your recovery.
Once you’ve hired us to be your personal accident attorney, we’re allowed to pull accident, medical, insurance and other important information to begin building our case.
This is often the longest part of the process but is crucial to make sure that no unexpected medical expenses are missed and unpaid. You only have one chance to get it right.
While it is possible to settle a case without every filing a law suit, it is likely that we will need to file just to make the insurance companies to take you serious.
While most cases settle outside of court it is important not to be afraid or ready to go to court to try your case. If we’re your attorney’s we will not hesitate to fight your case in court if the defense is unwilling to pay. This is often what separates us from the average TV settlement mill attorney.
