Lawyers are not all the same, do your research and find the best one for you.
Jones Act and offshore accident and injury cases occur when you are injured on the job while working at sea or on the inland waterways. Such injuries can range from being minor to life-threatening or even career-ending. These injuries are often the result of negligence, and can mean you are entitled to compensation including payment of past and future medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, impairment, and other types of damages.
Our national maritime law firm makes it a priority to represent injured workers and their families. We have never represented a employer or insurance company. We represent the working men and women who serve in the marine industry, regardless of where in the world you are located or need help. We've won cases against hundreds of companies.

Protect Your Rights Under The Jones Act
If you are a marine worker and have been injured on a ship, boat, barge, vessel, semi-submersible, jack-up rig, trawler, tug, or other marine vessel, you have rights under maritime law and the Jones Act. It is very important that you contact an experienced lawyer quickly to protect your rights. The companies, their attorneys, and the insurance adjusters will act quickly to limit (or even eliminate) your compensation. You need an aggressive legal advocate on your side, that knows the rules that you do not; an attorney with a proven track record of success.
