Portland Maritime & Boating Accident Attorney

If you have been injured in a boating accident, you may be able to recover compensation for any incurred damages. Our Portland maritime and boating accident attorney can help you evaluate your legal options and fight to secure a fair recovery. Injured seamen and offshore workers are protected by federal laws such as:

Protection for Maritime Workers

These laws shield injured maritime workers who are hurt on the job, protecting their right to fair treatment and compensation. In addition, laws affect cases involving non-work-related injuries, such as those suffered by a ship’s passengers and recreational accidents, such as those involving jet skis or personal watercraft and boats.

While many attorneys are not equipped to provide aggressive counsel and representation in these types of cases, at Paulson Coletti Trial Attorneys PC we are thoroughly familiar with The Jones Act and other maritime injury laws. Our Portland injury attorneys have decades of collective experience in helping injured sailors and offshore workers. We know the policies designed to address boating and maritime injuries, and we are equipped to answer our clients’ questions and provide them with knowledgeable advocacy.
