Louisiana Maritime Lawyers

There are many ways in which maritime injuries can happen. Barge workers and fishermen can be at risk for offshore accidents and oil rig explosions. But they are not the only people who can be injured on the water. Injury can also befall travelers, tourists and vacationers, whether on pleasure cruises, river cruises or personal watercraft. Boating accidents and riverboat accidents are common for such individuals.

Accidents occurring at sea fall under federal maritime law, so it is important to work with an attorney who understands the complexity of the system. There are many complicated regulations and laws that apply to maritime cases such as Death on the High Seas Act and the Jones Act, and our attorneys are well-versed in all of them. When maritime accidents are caused by negligence, noncompliance with safety regulations or law violations, injured workers and passengers should contact us right away to discuss their options. We will review your case for free and let you know if you should pursue legal action against the at-fault party for your injuries.
