Injury at Sea
SPEAK TO AN ATTORNEY TODAY
Offshore workers know they risk serious injury at sea as part of their day-to-day jobs. The Jones Act reflects that reality of maritime work with high standards of protection and compensation due to the injured worker. To obtain the full compensation provided under the Jones Act, a specialty offshore injury attorney is necessary to handle the many complex and convoluted legal issues.
To establish proof of employer negligence, one of the requirements in a Jones Act claim, an experienced offshore injury lawyer will conduct an immediate and thorough investigation and analysis of the relevant facts surrounding your injury. With the stiff criteria and complex legal process involved in a Jones Act claim, the lawyer you choose should determine the success of your recovery.
Many personal injury firms may allege to be competent to handle a Jones Act claim, but an offshore accidents attorney has special knowledge of the Jones Act and maritime law in order to successfully navigate an offshore injury claim through the legal complexities of the applicable federal law. The attorneys with the Burwell Nebout Trial Lawyers have the requisite experience as an offshore injury lawyer to successfully represent workers with an injury at sea.
