Compensation And Protection For Injured Deckhands

As a deckhand, you know the dangers inherent in your line of work. In addition to the dangerous conditions and possible major injuries, deckhands also are at risk for repetitive stress injuries and face risks to their hearing, sight and other vital functions. To protect your livelihood, talk with Tabak Mellusi & Shisha LLP.

Though you have three years from the date of the accident in which to file a claim, you should talk with an experienced Jones Act attorney as soon as possible. The groundwork for your claim should be laid early to protect your rights and your ability to obtain compensation.

Maritime Lawyers Who Will Stand Up For You

Our attorneys are former Merchant Marine officers with a comprehensive knowledge of shipboard operations. This enables us to quickly understand the key factual and legal issues in a maritime accident claim and respond appropriately. We will use our experience and knowledge when we represent you, seeking maximum compensation for all losses, including medical costs, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Your employer’s insurance company wants to minimize the compensation it provides. Before you accept a settlement offer, discuss your case with our experienced lawyers. In a free consultation, one of our lawyers can review your case and discuss how we can help you.
