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?
Who pays for my medical bills after an offshore accident?
A: If an offshore accident has left you seriously injured and with medical bills piling up from your doctor's visits, tests and surgeries, then you need to call an experienced maritime accident attorney. Medical bills can quickly add up. If you are out of work due to your offshore injury, you may be stressed with the amount of money you may owe in medical bills.
Don't give up too soon. A skilled lawyer will be able to determine if you are covered by maintenance and cure. Your insurance may take care of a portion of these costs, or your employer may cover the costs (if you are determined to be a seaman covered under the Jones Act).
Federal laws provide for maintenance and cure expenses to be covered by your employer under the Jones Act. To determine if you are entitled to these benefits, call a Gulf Coast maritime attorney at the Voss Law Firm. Call Bill Voss, a Texas maritime lawyer for a free legal consultation at 866-276-6179, to determine if you may be able to get your medical expenses and other damages covered by your employer after an offshore injury.
