Maritime Law

Texas Offshore Injury Lawyer
Louisiana Maritime Law Firm
Offshore Oil Rig Accident

When sailors are injured on the high seas, when an oil field worker is injured or killed on a drilling vessel, when longshoremen and other workers are injured in pier and dock accidents, they are protected by a federal law called the Jones Act. The Jones Act assures workers and their families that they will receive fair compensation for injuries and wrongful deaths.
