Offshore Accident Lawyers | Murphy Law Firm | Personal Injury Attorneys
Offshore and Maritime Accident Lawyers
If you or a loved one has been seriously injured while working offshore in the Gulf of Mexico or in an accident onshore connected to maritime work, we urge you to obtain legal representation from an experienced offshore and maritime accident lawyer immediately. You may be entitled to compensation under maritime law. Unfortunately, maritime law is complex, and those who are responsible for your injury understand how to make the law work for them and against you.
At Murphy Law Firm, our highly skilled Baton Rouge maritime accident lawyers have decades of experience successfully helping injured offshore workers obtain full compensation for the harm they have suffered. We understand that you have already been the victim of an accident once, and we don’t want you to be a victim twice ─ this time at the hands of corporate employers or insurance companies that want to take advantage of you. Don’t lose out to the legal system.
Contact our dedicated Louisiana maritime and offshore accident attorneys today for a free, no-obligation consultation to discuss how we can help you. We will show you why our firm is different, why our personal injury attorneys are so widely respected, and why clients frequently refer us to their friends and family.
We Fight For Offshore Workers and Longshoremen
You could spend years in and around the Gulf and never hear much more than the names of the Jones Act, the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act (LHWCA), the Death on the High Seas Act (DOHSA), or other maritime laws until an offshore accident happens to you. However, once you have been seriously hurt in a diving or boating accident, on an oil rig or a dock, or elsewhere around the water, specialized maritime law dictates your financial future.
