Our Areas of Practice
If you’ve been injured or have any questions, contact us today.
Get Help NowWe’re pretty much a multifaceted law firm. We practice a type of law that applies to maritime workers — whether on shore or on a vessel. We practice with regard to railroad workers who are injured on the job and we also do Defense Base Act work, which has to do with civilian translators and such on military bases throughout the world, to which the Longshore Act is applied.

Settlements
If you’ve been injured or have any questions, contact us today.
Get Help NowWhat about settlements? Well, first thing the client decides if he wants to settle. We’ve tried enough cases, we’ve gotten the big money. The shipping companies know we’ll take it all the way, so generally they’re going to offer the best settlement that we can get, but if the settlement is not enough, we go to trial. We’ve been doing this for 30 years, we’ve tried lots and lots of cases, got millions of dollars on settlements and cases in trials, and the companies know that we’re gonna take it all the way, so they better not play games. If they wanna make a settlement, it better be a good one, it better be of the value of the case, or we don’t want it – we’ll go to trial. But the decision whether you wanna settle or not is yours.
