MARITIME AND ADMIRALTY ACTS AND LEGISLATION
US Maritime Laws and Jones Act Claim Attorneys
To protect people who work and play on the navigable waterways of the United States, government officials have created a network of laws to promote safety. At Lewis, Kullman, Sterbcow & Abramson , our lawyers are leaders in the fields of US maritime law, personal injury, and wrongful death governed by the federal admiralty law. We provide committed, professional, and ethical representation to help our clients obtain the compensation they are entitled to. Contact us today to schedule a free initial consultation with one of our experienced attorneys.
Along with the Jones Act which governs workers compensation rights of seamen, we handle situations involving the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (LHWCA), the Death on the High Seas Act, the Public Vessels Act, the Suits in Admiralty Act, and more. Depending on the nature of the accident and the parties involved, it may be difficult for an inexperienced person to know where to begin. Every fact, and every passing day, could have a serious impact on whether or not you can receive the proper and just compensation. It is important to act quickly to protect your right to recover.
As part of our commitment to furthering the practice of maritime law and personal injury representation, we have lectured at law schools and conducted seminars for lawyers and judges. Our innovative solutions have shaped the way people approach injury cases in admiralty law. We are at the forefront of the charge to make sure that seriously injured seamen, longshoremen, harbor workers and others injured on navigable waters or in adjoining areas are treated fairly.
Contact us if you need help with a situation of wrongful death or serious injury on or near navigable US waterways.
