Maritime Law and Seaman's Injuries

On-the-job injuries and deaths occur all too often on our nation's inland waterways, in the Gulf of Mexico, and at sea. At Tomblin Carnes McCormack, LLP, our attorneys are committed to helping maritime workers and their families attempt to recover full compensation for serious injuries and fatal accidents. But our work is about more than just money. In some cases, we may be able to help injured maritime workers and their families obtain other resources they need recover — physically, financially, and emotionally. Get more information on maritime law and seaman's injuries.

Jones Act

The Jones Act, 46 U.S.C. 688 (1970), is a Federal law that enables an injured seaman or maritime worker to collect damages for losses caused by a negligent owner, operator, officer, or co-worker or because the vessel was unseaworthy. Get more information on the Jones Act.

Platform/Oil Rig Injuries

A job on an offshore oil platform means hard work and good pay. But the work is dangerous too. When an oil platform worker is injured due to the negligence of the employer or another party, the worker is entitled to compensation for financial losses and suffering. But the insurance companies involved may try to pay the least amount possible for your accident claim. Get more information on platform/oil rig injuries.

Longshoreman Injuries

At Tomblin Carnes McCormack, LLP, our attorneys try to help injured longshoremen, dockworkers, and their families recover compensation under the Longshore & Harbor Workers' Compensation Act (LHWCA) and other maritime laws in appropriate cases. Get more information on longshoreman injuries.

Oil Platform Transfer Accidents

Offshore oil workers face dangers every day, even when traveling to and from their rigs and platforms. Transfer accidents are a common occurrence in the Gulf of Mexico. Get more information on oil platform transfer accidents.
