How we protect our clients from blacklisting

If you believe you may have been blacklisted in the maritime industry, do not take matters into your own hands by conducting your own investigation. Let us take the lead. Our years of experience in this area have taught us to how to spot the signs of blacklisting and our expertise will fight back for you. If an offshore company foolishly attempts to prevent you from making a living in your chosen field, they are opening themselves to a cause of action. We will go after them so they will have to pay you significant damages for what is called tortious interference of contractual rights. Under tort law, tortious interference is defined as when a person causes intentional damage to a plaintiff’s business or contractual relationships.  In other words, retaliating against you—simply because you were protecting your legal rights—by spreading unflattering information throughout the industry so that you will not be able to work.

Once we prove that you have been blackballed we can go after the guilty party for punitive damages.  Furthermore, to make sure they don’t do the same thing to other workers, you can report them to the Coast Guard employment and the U.S. Department of Labor.

We strongly recommend that you do not try to confront the company yourself because it could make things much worse.
