    Houma Boat Accident Lawyer

    Because the laws governing maritime and admiralty accidents are so complex, many injured workers do not fully understand their rights. If you were hurt on the job, speak to a Houma boat accident lawyer about the types of compensation you may be able to recover.

    In addition to Jones Act benefits, injured offshore workers may be eligible for compensation from a negligent third party. For example, if defective equipment or negligence by another party led to your accident our experienced injury attorneys can bring separate personal injury claims against the responsible parties.

    Our firm represents injured maritime workers no matter where they live. Before you accept a settlement, talk to a Houma boat accident attorney. You may be eligible for more compensation. For a free consultation, please call our Houma vessel and platform accident lawyers today.
