Applying for disability after a Jones Act Maritime accident and injury

Many of our clients are struggling to pay their bills when we help them with their Jones Act cases. When you file a Jones Act case our office encourages that you apply for short term or long term disability if you have that benefit and our office also encourages that you apply for Social Security Disability. We can help you file these claims. We don't charge fees on that portion of your case. These are benefits we give you to try to get you living expense money each month while your case is ongoing and even afterwards in the event of long term disability or Social Security Disability. We understand the Jones Act is complicated. It works together with other laws and we can help walk you through all of those laws.
