Offshore workers who have been injured often face an uncertain picture of their legal rights.  Their legal status may depend on whether they were on a fixed platform, floating platform, jackup rig, dynamic positioning rig, or other vessel or structure.  It may depend on their job title, or how far offshore they were.

It is important that an injured offshore worker consults with a lawyer that knows this area of the law.  The at-fault party will often use an offshore worker’s lack of knowledge of the law to attempt to provide the worker and their family the least amount of compensation.  If you or a family member has been injured in an offshore accident, please contact us for a free consultation.
