Dedicated Advocates For Seamen Injured On Tugboats

Tugboats pose a particularly high risk of injury for workers. Fortunately, injured seamen have the right to compensation under the Jones Act and other maritime laws.

Blake Jones Law Firm LLC is a team of eight experienced personal injury attorneys. Based in New Orleans and serving clients throughout Louisiana, we draw on more than 40 years of experience to represent clients who were injured in tugboat accidents. We use extensive resources, including top-notch computer technology, accident reconstruction experts and other expert witnesses to help our clients recover the maximum compensation available to them.

Beware The Most Common Causes Of Tugboat Injuries

Even the most cautious seaman can experience a tugboat accident. Some common causes of accidents aboard tugboats include:

  • Collisions with other maritime vehicles
  • Slip-and-falls on slippery decks
  • Trip-and-falls on improperly stored equipment
  • Transfers between barges and tugboats
  • Faulty navigational equipment
  • Hawker (metal rope) injuries
  • Capsizes

Our team has handled cases involving all these incidents and more. We have a proven record of recovering high settlements and judgments in a wide variety of maritime accidents.

Rather, we strive to recover maximum compensation in every case. As a result, we have recovered several multi-million-dollar settlements on behalf of our clients, including one recent settlement of more than $54 million.
