Jones Act & Maritime Law Attorneys

As home to the busiest seaport in the nation, Houston and the surrounding counties employs thousands of seamen along its 25 mile coast.  Seamen working in the Houston Ship Channel, Galveston Bay, Jefferson County, Orange County, in Louisana and Mississippi and other areas across the Port of Houston and Gulf Coast have unique protections under maritime law and a federal law known as the Jones Act.  Maritime law allows those injured by the negligence of others to pursue a claim for damages against those responsible.  The Jones Act permits seamen to initiate legal actions directly against an employer when injury or death occurs as a result of an employer’s negligence.  V & B attorneys have experience in helping injured seamen, offshore workers, and the survivors of seamen and offshore workers killed on the job make the most of their rights under maritime law and the Jones Act.  Read more about the Jones Act and how V & B attorneys can help you today.

Dangerous/Defective Products (Products Liability)

Our world is complex and technical, but we Americans expect the products we purchase and use to be designed and manufactured such that they are safe. Americans also expect that products’ sellers and manufacturers will give us reasonable warnings when their products have dangerous propensities. The reality, though, is that not all designers, manufacturers and sellers of products meet this standard, and many do not meet the requirements of our laws with regard to their products. Fayetteville, North Carolina product liability lawyer Thomas Pleasant helps individuals who have been seriously injured or killed as the result of defective products. Mr. Pleasant’s focus is to help obtain just compensation for injured clients as well as to create an economic incentive for those manufacturing companies to produce safe products and provide sufficient warning of the dangers of their products, ultimately resulting in saving lives. Products may be found to be dangerous in a number of ways, including: * Design flaws or defects. This is when the product was designed with a defect that makes the entire line dangerous even if the manufacturing and assembly was flawless. * Manufacturing flaws or defects. These happen when a safely designed product becomes dangerous because the manufacturer failed to make the product in accordance with the plans and specifications. * Inadequate warnings or instructions. This is when the manufacturer does not provide adequate instructions or warnings for the use of the product. In some case, you may not necessarily have to prove that the manufacturer was "negligent". Product liability claims, often called "strict product liability" can generally be established if three things are proven: * The product was defective. * The product was defective before the manufacturer released the product. * The defect harmed you. If you or someone you love has been seriously injured or killed as the result of defective or incorrectly designed products, contact Fayetteville North Carolina injury attorney Thomas Pleasant. You may be able to file a claim against the manufacturer to recover money damages. Call or email today.

Retained Objects From Surgery

A shocking, but not so uncommon surgical error is to leave foreign objects like sponges, gauze, needles and even surgical instruments and towels inside the patient. The result can be catastrophic to the patient. Foreign objects left in the body can lead to life threatening infections, bowel perforations, organ damage, and severe pain. Even in the best case scenario the patient is usually subjected to the physical and emotional tolls of otherwise unnecessary surgery, hospitalizations, unsightly scars, and additional expenses. If you or a loved one has been a victim of a retained foreign object, you are invited to contact us to discuss your legal rights.

Wrongful Death

A wrongful death case isn’t about revenge or spite. In many cases it’s about a family that has to contend with the sudden loss of half of their income. There are hospital bills, which have to be paid regardless of whether or not the patient died. There are funeral costs. There is the fact that this family will have to go without what the victim contributed to their household, both in real monetary value and what they brought in terms of stability and emotional value. These aren’t difficulties that are made up, or exaggerated. They are very real, and they can ruin the lives of the survivors. If you have lost a loved one due to the negligence of others, David M. Benenfeld can help.

Criminal Law

Some people think during a criminal case that if they cooperate with police by signing papers or answering questions, they will be set free. Wrong! It is too late for that after an arrest has been made. In this instance, the job of any law enforcement officer is to arrest a suspect and collect evidence that will get the suspect (YOU!) convicted of the crime in question. This includes getting the suspect to incriminate themselves, sign a statement of guilt, or have a recorded statement by the suspect stating he or she is guilty.

Dog Bites/Pet Attacks

In recent years, dog bites and other pet attacks have become a serious legal issue. Every year, more than 4.7 million people are bitten by dogs, and 800,000 of the injuries incurred merit medical treatment. Injuries caused by animal bites often require painful and expensive courses of medication to prevent disease as well as medical procedures to close wounds and mend injuries. Owners are legally responsible for the actions of their pets, and any medical costs and other losses caused by an attack by their pets rests with the owners. Van Dorn & Curtiss takes these cases to trial and we will win. Our attorneys recovered a 2.1 million dollar jury verdict in a pit bull attack case. We don’t just settle for less than you deserve. Our aggression in the courtroom gets generous awards for our clients, and other law firms are well aware of it.
