Injured Drillship Worker Requires Compensation
- Arnold & ItkinAttorneys Kurt Arnold, Caj Boatright, Roland Christensen, Joseph McGowin, and Claire Traver are currently representing an Alabama man who was severely injured while working offshore. Our client was aboard a drillship in the Gulf of Mexico when he suffered debilitating harm because his employer failed to provide a safe workplace.
Offshore work is inherently dangerous, and no worker should sustain injuries because of predictable and preventable hazards. Laws such as the Jones Act exist because employers overlook safety too often. They're created to help regular people obtain justice and a way to recover from the immense financial hardships caused by accidents.
Companies should never be allowed to escape accountability for cutting corners and placing their workers' well-being at risk. This man deserves the medical care and compensation required to move forward with his life. Our offshore injury lawyers won’t be satisfied until he’s received them.
We filed this case in Harris County, Texas.
