FAQs
Offshore Injuries
- Can injured maritime workers pursue punitive damages in addition to maintenance and cure?
- I slipped and fell on a boat off the Gulf Coast and broke my arm. How do I know if I need an offshore injury lawyer for my maritime accident?
- I had a heart attack while working on a cruise ship. Is my employer still responsible for compensating me?
Should I agree to a recorded statement after my offshore injury?
A: The simple answer is No. Insurance adjusters are looking for reasons to weaken your claim so that they can pay you a portion of your recovery or deny the entire claim. They may use things you say against you. You have to remember that insurance adjusters are not bad people, but they just have a job to do. Their job is to save the company money, and it may be at your expense.
When you are injured in an offshore injury, you need to speak with a skilled maritime and offshore injury attorney as soon as possible. It is critical that you speak with your lawyer first before you sign any papers or agree to give the insurance company a recorded statement. Your offshore injury lawyer will be able to prepare you for the questions an insurance adjuster will ask you, and counsel you on appropriate answers.
