Learn the Benefits of Letting Our Office Act as Your Alabama Jones Act Lawyers.
If you live in Alabama why should you hire a New Orleans maritime lawyer to help handle your case? Well there's at least three reasons why our office in New Orleans can help handle your Alabama maritime injury case.
First many cases have to be filed in Louisiana and most cases can be filed in Louisiana if you worked offshore in the Gulf of Mexico. This is especially true if you travel to southeast Louisiana and left out of southeast Louisiana to go work on oil rigs, crew boats, or supply boats.
A second reason is because in Louisiana most judges are very familiar with maritime law. When you file your case you want to have a judge who understands what your rights are. You want a judge who knows maritime and Jones Act law who's going to be overseeing your case. When you file your maritime case here in Louisiana you're likely to get that type of judge.
The third reason filing a suit in Louisiana is very helpful to your maritime case is because we have access here in Louisiana to a lot of good industry experts who can help prove your case. Southeast Louisiana is full of individuals who used to work on oil rigs or vessels or barges. These individuals can act as experts in your case and they can help prove and win your case here in Louisiana.
