How Did The Injury Happen?

Unfortunately, maritime work is inherently dangerous. Our attorneys represent workers injured in the following ways:

• Burns from explosions, fires, steam from equipment, electrical equipment failures
• Oil rig explosions and platform injuries caused by falls, machinery failures, toxic chemical exposure
• Injuries caused by transportation to and from the platform via boats, ships and helicopters
• Accidents, falls, chemical exposure and drowning resulting in wrongful death

This is not an exhaustive list of injuries and accidents. Please let us know if you suffered an injury in an accident that is not listed above and we will see if we can help.

The nature of maritime and offshore work accidents often results in injuries such as:

• Broken bones
• Amputations
• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Burns
• Neck and back injuries, including spinal cord injuries
• Scarring and disfigurement

Any of these injuries may prevent you from returning to your job. In these cases, you need an experienced maritime lawyer to protect your right to the necessary financial compensation to cover your past, present and future losses.
