Personal Injury Claims and Maritime Law

Under the Jones Act and the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act, workers on commercial ships are provided significant legal protections. The Jones Act allows injured workers to file a lawsuit against their employers, if they are considered seamen under federal law. The Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act provides workers' compensation benefits - medical benefits and lost wages - to people injured while employed to load, unload, repair or build ships.
