Offshore Injury Attorneys
Should I speak with an attorney who is experienced in offshore injury claims?
It's not just important to talk to just any attorney but a qualified, maritime trial lawyer, because if you are just talking to any attorney you may not be doing the things necessary to protect yourself. You can be sure that immediately following you accident, the company and their insurance company were out doing things to protect themselves. This might mean covering up for their mistakes or trying to make it look like it was your fault instead of the company's fault or somebody else's fault.
If you are going to speak with somebody, talk to someone who knows what they are talking about, such as a maritime lawyer. It is as black and white as criminal law versus civil law; maritime law versus injuries on land. Maritime law is totally different. There are different statues of limitations, there are different traps you can fall into and there are different benefits you can recover under maritime law. So I urge you to talk to a lawyer who has extensive experience in maritime law.
