Let not the fear of being blacklisted stop you from seeking legal counsel

The offshore related question our firm gets asked far more than any other is, “Will I get blacklisted if I hire a lawyer?” The short answer is no, with a caveat. Companies realize that a worker has the right to seek legal representation to protect their interests if he or she is hurt on the job. They understand that offshore work is dangerous by its very nature. The caveat, however, is that if someone is filing suit for the fifth or sixth time, then there is a good chance that you will be blacklisted, and rightfully so, and that type of individual should probably consider changing careers. But companies do not take  hiring a lawyer personally, or, in the words of Marion Puzo, “It’s just business nothing personal.”
