Will I Get Fired for Filing a Jones Act Lawsuit?

http://www.maritimeinjuryattorney.com Unfortunately, oftentimes injured offshore workers still employed by their company may begin to feel that the company is not treating them right or giving them the compensation they deserve. Whatever the cause, an injured worker may believe their company does not have their best interests in mind, and will become interested in pursuing a Jones Act lawsuit. However, one concern they always have is the possibility of getting fired for filing a lawsuit.

At Vujasinovic & Beckcom, P.L.L.C., we do let our clients know that it is not guaranteed that a company will not move to fire an employee after they file a Jones Act lawsuit. However, the majority of the workers we represent don't face that situation. If you are a hard and dedicated worker for your company, typically they will not fire you after you choose to file a lawsuit.

Our lawyers have represented numerous clients who continued to work for their company during their Jones Act lawsuit, and the majority of our cases are settled with compensation being awarded to the injured worker. If you have suffered a maritime injury and are considering filing a Jones Act lawsuit against your company, contact our law offices today.
