We Care Personally About Helping Injured Crewmen
For us, working with injured maritime clients is more than a profession; it is something our lawyers care about personally. We represent clients with claims involving:
- Commercial fishing injuries
- The Death on the High Seas Act
- The Jones Act
- Maintenance and cure claims
- Unseaworthiness claims
- Lost wages
- Fatal maritime accidents
- Marine insurance disputes
Our team understands the obstacles that injury victims face when bringing a claim against a powerful individual or company in the maritime industry. We feel committed to helping survivors pursue every available avenue to hold the negligent party accountable and recover compensation.
Reaching Survivors Throughout The Pacific Northwest Coast
Our practice is not limited to helping fishermen; we regularly work with people from a variety of maritime professions. In addition to serving clients in Washington, we represent clients in Oregon, Alaska and along the Pacific Coast. For instance, if you do not reside in Washington state, but your injury occurred offshore or while working for a company based in Washington, we can assist you.
