Louisiana Maritime Personal Injury Lawyers
Protecting injured workers at sea.
Injured offshore or on the water? You have legal rights. We're here to help.
Working offshore or on the water comes with serious risks, and when something goes wrong, you need a law firm that knows how to fight back. At AMO Trial Lawyers, we represent injured maritime workers across Louisiana and the Gulf Coast. Whether you were hurt on a crew boat, tugboat, oil rig, or barge, you may be entitled to compensation under the Jones Act, General Maritime Law, or other federal protections.
Maritime work is dangerous. Your legal representation should be strong.
Maritime workers face some of the harshest and most dangerous working conditions in the world. From rough seas to faulty equipment, the risk of serious injury is always present. When an accident happens, employers and vessel owners often try to deny responsibility or push workers into quick, unfair settlements.
That’s where we come in.
​
At AMO Trial Lawyers, we handle a wide range of maritime personal injury claims, including:
-
Jones Act claims for injured seamen
-
Injuries on offshore oil rigs and platforms
-
Tugboat and barge accidents
-
Commercial fishing and shrimping injuries
-
Slip and falls, burns, and crush injuries
-
Unseaworthy vessel claims
-
Maintenance and cure disputes
If you’ve been injured while working on or near the water, don’t wait. Reach out to one of our attorneys now for a free consultation.
You may be entitled to more than you think
Maritime laws like the Jones Act and General Maritime Law provide unique protections for injured offshore and maritime workers—including the right to sue your employer for negligence.
You may be entitled to:
-
Lost wages and future earning capacity
-
Medical expenses and long-term care
-
Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
-
Maintenance and cure (daily living expenses and medical treatment)
-
Punitive damages in some cases
But time is critical. Maritime claims have strict deadlines, and evidence can disappear quickly.
