Galveston Jones Act lawyers can provide legal counsel, negotiation skills and litigation representation to individuals and families who have been impacted by the injury or death of a maritime worker covered by the Jones Act or a related worker-protection law. Thousands of maritime workers are employed in the Galveston region, the harbor of which in Galveston Bay once made the region the center of trade in Texas.

Hurricane Ike

Although Galveston was hit hard by Hurricane Ike fairly recently (September 2008), the port is still very active, serving as a terminal for both cargo ships of many types and cruise ships — such as the Carnival Cruise Lines. Thus, many workers who are classified as "Jones Act seamen" are in the Galveston area, and when they are injured or made ill by conditions on their jobs, they have legal recourse under the Jones Act.

Contact a Galveston Jones Act Lawyer

An injured maritime employee should protect his or her right to compensation and wage coverage. If you have been hurt on the job and you think that you might be considered a seaman under the Jones Act — which covers a broader spectrum of workers than you might think — arrange a no-cost consultation with a Galveston Jones Act lawyer to get answers to your questions.
