Experienced Legal Representation for Maritime Accidents

Whether you are a seaman, offshore oil rig employee, or passenger, suffering an injury in a maritime environment often involves multiple jurisdictions, specialized legal frameworks, and powerful corporate interests.

​

Our maritime injury attorneys are highly experienced in handling cases.  We have litigated cases and recovered millions in Louisiana for offshore oil rig workers from Andalusia, Alabama, Opp, Alabama, and Florala, Alabama and surrounding areas.

 
The Jones Act and Maritime Law

If you are classified as a seaman under the Jones Act, you may be entitled to sue your employer for negligence. Additionally, General Maritime Law may entitle you to maintenance and cure, unseaworthiness claims, and other legal remedies depending on your employment status and the nature of your work.
